so going to be next weekend now

should hopefully get my headunit in tomorrow though so that'll be one less thing to do

and here's how the finished look will be (notice i'm not far off)

gloss black side stripes

had to buy the double DIN fascia adaptor and 3 leads costing over 50 quid to fit it

before:

after:

nothing special, but looks better than the standard ford one and has a ipod connection in the back

springs going on saturday too

how did people get round the old radio setup with the 3 seperate bits, that doesn't look as daunting as the old setup. New headunit looks better than the old hifi

thanks for telling me i'm a proper oldie

was going to order my cat back piper exhaust this weekend but my girlfriend has just made me spend £1500 on a holiday so that will have to take a back seat until the end of february

* i don't have a credit card so spend my money as and when work pay me (every thursday, gayness or what)

got an S decal made up from a website, they sent 2 even though i only asked for 1. i think it looks alright tbh, had this idea for ages!

small but cool IMO.

before:

after:

i was trying to put the 2nd s badge under the green display in my clocks, but it got stuck in the wrong position and got ripped

so i'm going to order another

and clean:

springs are definitely going on sunday morning so will update with some scenic pics of it lowered!
