engine bays not clean yet, will get on that soon.
the end of the cat was well rusted thats why i think it sticks out as it's not far enough back.
will be sorted when it gets de-catted or replacement cat.
oh and i have 2ltr turbo discs going on soon

seats where a bit of a bugger, had to get brackets made up, with help from iaz.
I got the seats from V5uk off here, the rrp is something stupid like £500 from vaux.
i got them for less than half price
accidently set off the pretensioner tho, does that have to be reset or a new one brought for MOT?
