think you can also get the plugs off ebay for fairly cheap mate. Search megasquirt.
Also, the cage rear mounts look like mine - sat on top of the sill and mine are the genuine sd mounts

I have a belt thanks 
got a bit done tonight.... made some cardboard templates up for the sides of my cage mounts:
then made some steel copies:
then removed mounts, welded side on and re-mounted to check, please excuse the messy mig welding.... practicing with a new machine at the moment an have only recently completed a beginners course, but i want to do as much as i can myself so its all good
also this is now how the front end looks, will be fitting some black mesh in the front bumper soon, and also changine bonnet pins to aero-catches

very nice. I like it when a project reaches this stage as it starts to be come easy sailing and everything starts fitting together and it looks like a car again.
I really need to gain some motivation and get mine to the same stage! lol
