Evening all. I’ve not posted for a long time since I got rid of my old b. I recently bought a 1.2 sxi as a runabout I opted for the sxi over a sport as I wanted something cheap to run as a 2nd car.
I’ve been tidying the car up over the last few months to make it presentable. I gave it a full service, renewed all the filters, new discs and pads and so on. I managed to get some Irmscher stuff cheap from LMF so on went the softstars, grille with badge, silver heater surround and gear knob. I finished the interior off with vectra chrome handles, tinted interior light and a siemens cdr500 to replace the broken delco unit.
Comments and suggestions welcome. I’m thinking of adding rear headrests next. If you’re wondering why it’s so red, it’s because I’ve been over it with my megs g220!

Thanks for the comments. I've put my old -40mm springs on for the time being.

Cheers. I'm sure it's just a case of stripping back to the foam, cutting holes in the fabric, reapply fabric, add the guiding tubes then the headrests themselves. The holes in the foam etc should be there already. I'll maybe do a how to if there isn't one already. Someone correct me if I'm wrong
