well seen as the engine is out and at the garage i thot i would do a few of the silly wee jobs on my car that have been needing done for ages

got the new tax disc fitted properly after just shoving it i any old way when i got my tax couple months ago. goin to give it a clean before i stick it back on

Have fitted a new parcel tray below the glove box after breaking the one that was there, just need to sort out the wires going to the expansion box but it gets it off the floor for just now

have glued on a new clock glass after breaking the old one removing it to fit the ally backing. its clamped up just now

going to screw a couple wee blocks onto the rear section of boot floor so they both sit nice and flush once i can get in the boot

few wee other things might do if time. will get some pics

gave the tax disc holder a clean and fitted disc properly


screwed three rests on main part of floor to keep them sittin level all fitted now fits perfect could do with something to maybe fix it down to stop it rattiling over bumps etc tho
any ideas?



was going to start other rear plastic, need to attack it with my dremel. and can i say what a great tool only had it a few weeks and comes in so so handy, i would recomend you all buy one
heres a pic of befor and after

loving the smoothness going to get trimmed in swede type material

and the clocks put back together



got a wee bit done. still have a list the size of my arm but good to get a little done when i dont have the engine to fit.

Mask the dials off and you don't even need to remove them (good idea).
