So what an eventful night I ended up having , purchased a lowered car jack as I've not being able to get under the car at home on my own due to the car being so low. Was a few thing ps I wanted to look at firstly was an extremely annoying exhaust rattle , which I found out to be a nun used exhaust clamp that had being lazily left on by the old owner , I also found out why my oil temp gauge was not working and fixed it, this was due to a smashed up plug , luckily I managed to get the metal pin on so it's all working.
I also noticed that there was a small gearbox oil leak that had started , it did not take me long to find out why , the gearbox sump plug has only being tightened up to some dirt , the Dirt had started to crack and come loose , leaving the plug/screw completely loose , literally was spinning it freely with my fingers , extremely lucky as that could had fallen out at anytime over the last 4-5weeks that I've had it . Restassured it's now clean and tight .
Despite all this my main aim was to do some black mask fog lights , I picked some up today and got straight to work
Just to clarify I am aware these as fog lights are now useless , (hence removing bulbs and the little bulb holder ) this is solely for a looks thing etc . Will post some pics up tommorrow as it's too dark now etc.
