ok ok new pics
so my new clear idicators turned up 2day, so naturally had to get them fitted asap!
1000 times abtter already!
then realised white front indicatorsare not a good sign, so had a trip to the local halfrauds!
After i finished the indicators i started on the audio and visual cables
2x phono leads
So all the drivers trim was removed
a= audio b=visual
Poked them both through the radio din and the computer slot
then cable tied them 2geva
Threw both cable-ends into the boot out of the way, where there was meh mechanic kitteh waiting for a job! and that was to taste the cables to make sure they worked!!!
tied all the cables down using the existing cable ties on the car sill
and the placed all the sill covers back and tidied up!
so now:
*all the power to the boot / amps / invertor is working
*there is audoi and visual from radio>amps and visual boot>tv (when its installed
*indicators sorted
next post:
where i decided to put the small tv, and other plans for visual and centre consol!!
next post will b in about 2 hours!!

so, now most of my wiring is done
i started looking for places to put the tv ive already got
here it is just placed infront of the lcd computer just above the radio DIN
after careful consideration, it was brough to my attention by my paperboy of all people, that it cover the hazard light switch, so that idea went dow the ****ter
after placing it and holding it in many different places around the car, this is where i found it to be best placed
if you look above the standard radio DIN 'wher the lcd computer/clock/temp readout should be' with a little work that should fit anouthe DIN sized unit in it, so thats where im having the pull out 7" screen above the radio.
so after some work getting out tight screws that held the center console, i started to dismantal the screen
bow it all in bits its time to dismantal the center console
ashtray removed
after come carful cutting and shaping, the old case was tacked into place and tried back in the car
after all the gaps had been sorted then the fabrication takes place
and that is how i left it!
thats the 1st layer of araldite and filler.
will get some fiber glass resin.mesh mix 2moz and have another bash at it
the wheels are coming off too, so thay can be done as sson as the screen is finished

so tonight i have started wheel recon-ing
but kinda forgot to take a load of picss
so here are 1 or 2
started in primer
this was the fooked 1 from the accident
Silver edge and rim
all done in my high tec spray booth
and here is the 1st finished product!

unfortunatly i have no centre caps so the wheel nuts and wheel aligners will have to be sprayed black too
all i need to do now is get a heavy layer of laqure on them, but im going to get the all finished 1st
