yeah i gave a full check over to see if i havent missed anyting else out. I thought i covered all the rubbing issues being so low, but i guess its easy to miss something when the cars back on the ground. Its pretty hard seeing anything under the car with such little ground clearance lol So glad nothing bad happened as i could have wrote off my car if i didnt realise my brakes werent working!
The new brake line was a right pain of a job. I ended up getting my mate a the garage to do it cash in hand. New brake fluid and bled all the air out, brakes are better than before now

krisb's a top man, been to him a couple of times. A shame i live about 50min drive away though
Ive always thought the late airbagged vts seats were the best seats you can have in a saxo (apart from gti leather)
I was considering buying a set when my last set of leathers wore down, but then i found the set ive currently got in

it took me an hour in all but worth it , as he likes the saxos its a bonus , you get mechanics who hate them and can not be arsed with them , as i wrote im going back as hes a decent geezer and is fair all round with prices  .
I was worried about the plug under the seat being the same as my old tiger stripe vtr ones ? i saw some on fleabay if i remember for 60 quid ! inc door cards , not bad i says

thats not bad. About the plug, you can just swap over the buckles from your old seats onto your new seats. Its only one bolt holding the whole pretensioner on.
