you need to do something with the orange side repeaters, get some colour coded mirror caps and find some fogs from somewhere . . . .other than that i like it . .

We all love beading! <3
I have some clear side repeaters in my room just not sure on whether to put them on or not :/
I do want some fogs, only to put led bulbs in so they look nice in pictures though... And to wire them up to full beam so i can flash all those wank stains that forget to dip there beam at night!
Thanks for the kind words all! Love driving this car, best one i've had so far!

Have you thought about tinting the indicators or black masking them to match the headlights? I told Ginge to do it but it was too late as he was selling it.

Alot more wires here than any other headunits i've seen, some ones been playing back there :/
Few shots of the components and all the messy wiring, it will be tidied up tomorrow

How did you wire the lighter up? Looking at having one in mine for the satnav, as the standard location is being used by something else

Just had to lengthen my original plug dude. It only needs a ground and a constant 12v so you could easily take a 12v from the fuse box and then ground with a self tapper through some metal. Just make sure to use good size wire because some things you can plug into the lighter use alot of amps
