Cheers - Induction kit is a Carbon Simota.Not sure if available now as i got it perhaps 7 years ago ? Have just bought another filter a week or so ago,and had another 'mini-blinging' session under the hood with a few new bits and pieces. Will add pics when its dry outside

Quick update...
Off work today so fitted new meshed smiley grill (Pic crap as car in shade)
Also piccies to show towing eye cover painted satin black 
And new (non leaking) brake fluid resevoir cap,new air-filter and couple of stickers to brighten the bay up a bit:
Desperately waiting on headlight inserts to arrive so i can 'go smoked'.Bloody Royal Mail !
Ive also got a bright red Piper vernier under that cambelt cover. Anyone made a bracket to keep the hose that runs over the top of it out of the way so the cover can be safely removed ???? Pictures please ????

Thanks very much - glad my efforts are appreciated
Hopefully be able to get some current rolling road figures next week when the engine 'overhaul' is completed.

De-wipered the rear this morning (And removed 3rd brake light because of the bloody squeeking):
And removed washer jet and got a grommet for that too:
BTW: Fuck Hellfrauds prices for grommets ! I got a pack of two 19mm grommets for the rear window,and two packs of 8mm,10mm and 13mm grommets for the washer hole for £1.55 from Wilco's if theres one near you.......

To remove the wiper jet housing - that squirts the water ?
Just twisted it and pulled it out of the roof (You get a good view of underneath it if the boot is open).Then i folded the water pipe that leads to it in two at the end,and tie-wrapped the end closed so i couldnt get any leaks. Then i simply pushed it back into the hole behind the 3rd brake light (Which i was also removing at the same time).
Voila !
(And BTW: You may find a please and thank-you will help you in life enormously :-) )
