Just been to the garage and they told me they were gna charge me for two hours labour for rewiring the sidelights - £80!!!!!!
SO....I went to another garage and asked them what wire I would need, they gave me the wire for free, just had to go out and get some butt connectors and got cracking with it. Still need to get the halo's wired up tho, cant be too difficult to do surely, I can power them from 9V batteries lol

Gaiter pics, took me ages to get the gearstick surround on the frame, it took a lot of gentle persuading......and a lot of spray adhesive.

THIS ONE ISNT PHOTOSHOPPED! THATS ITS NATURAL GLOW!!! HONESTLY!

Ive also straightened my grill out and am planning to paint a white surround around it to set it off a bit like on the pic below.
