    Interesting! Can you do a write-up on what you find (separate thread) so that it can be searched for in future.

    installed gauges. The oil pressure is slightly obscured by the window washer/pod thing when you are driving. Useless clock is useless.

    Looks fresh! How long until it runs?

    Meanwhile...

    The back seat isn't much chop for anyone but primary school kids (insert mr zed x joke - not) so I've done away with it and made a subwoofer box that takes up the entire space. After much calculation and formula following it is set to hold 2 x 12" subs, a pair of 9" speakers, amp and a bit for a parcel shelf.

    A flat shelf section goes on top but you get the idea. Yes it is a bit weighty but if you want quality you have to do it heavy, I estimate 20kg's +.

    So while I was toiling away the Postie pulls up and hands me these...

    A Z is never finished, huh. :rolleyes:

    Blasted the targa drainage holes with compressed air, tested them and now they work great. No more rain getting in.

    Wow good thinking 99...

    My rubbers always seemed pretty spot on yet sometimes in certain conditions they'd leak, might give this a try... :rolleyes:
