Here you go Chris;

Modified fuse box bracket (in behind the dash near the glove box) to house the one single fuse box that the car now has



SPA dial fitting into the standard dial binnacle with CF backing plate

Hay hay hay!
We're back again, with the dials fully mounted and completed.

The Spa didn't seem to come with any mounts with it so we made had to make our own bracket to hold it onto the carbon backing.
Which we're rather proud of



And the standard glass is now fitted to the dials again



I think you'll all agree that it looks amazing!
Now we need to arrange going to meet up with Sam and Joshs dad to fit the looms and everything.

Very exciting

Hope you like

Thanks mate, kind words :)

Maybe some of you guys should come over to the UK for French car show in July?

Just spent the last hour and a half looking at this, Sandy did an amazing job on the engine. Beanie once again did his magic on the wiring.

Saying I'm jealous doesn't even come close.

Awesome car there mate

Cheers buddy, it took alot of my spare time last year to build & pay for, but now it's all built and its just finishing touches here and there I'm really pleased with the outcome tbh :)

Back with another update!
Got up at 7 this morning to be presented by a slightly snowy Metro (really feeling for Josh out in Australia at the moment), and headed off to Leicester to fit the loom back into Josh's Saxo

Arrived at the garage, moved out the 106 and was presented with this



Set about fitting the loom









Looking very much tider!
Next up I got the dash in, and set about building it up.
Around this time Alex, Lee and Sam turned up, sorry if I was a bit quiet, I hadn't really eaten all day and was running very low on energy.

Anyways, connected the battery up and did some tests and everything that should work was working, apart from having the window switches in the wrong way round, then blew the fuse when swapping the plugs over!?!?

That aside, its all looking great







Was going to pop back tomorrow to finish off a few things as I'd forgotten a few wiring clips and plug connectors, but owing to a massive tidy up at my house because an inpending house inspection I apear to have lost his power steering wiring loom, so I'll have to find that or source one before I can finish it off, but its all looking promicing and will be finished very soon

Moo

If you zoom into the dials I love how you can see the carbon weave around the dials and in the background you can see the carbon weave from the bonnet haha

Very very pleased, love the combined fuse box, much tidier! Dials look very smart in there too!

Looks like you, Dad, Sam, Alex & Lea had good fun up at the garage today :) wish I was there to be mucking in!!!
