not to bothered about the exhaust, but it works for now

I'm a cheap bastard. I want to remove things for free, not spend to lose weight

I wouldnt mind a side exit BUT I do want to meet noise restrictions and there isnt much room for silencers in that short a run. The car is loud enough as it is

Light weight battery is a good one

How about 1 formula type mirror on the outside and no mirror on the pass side?

Thats what i'm doing.


A small heater?

A lightened dash?


Snap vents instead of slider kits?

motorbike horn?

A wee battery?

how are you going to fit the vents?

Rear 1/4's or front door windows? Bond them in?
