Finally have a '6, Spares or repair car now got an MOT!
#48
Didn't really get up to much on the car this weekend as the Dturbo needed some attention.

Before lunch I had a few spare minutes so had a look at a couple of things.

The seat adjuster for some strange reason the handle wasn't on right so fixed that.

Whoever installed an amp in the past did it in a shit way and didn't put the carpet back right so I reseated that.

I removed the after market headunit.

Found some dodgy wiring behind the unit. God knows why you would do this. Why not just cut there stereo wires instead of chopping the car harness. There was an invoice for work done when the battery kept going flat and it said it was down to the stereo incorrectly wired. Also notice the amp remote wire, why use the switched ignition and not the proper remote turn on/aerial power wire of the unit?

The OEM unit back in.

I've got the autochanger but the brackets are missing, I'm not sure whether to source them and put it in.

The third brake light was loose and when I went to sort it I found the tabs were broken and the cover had been glued in. Going to get one from the breakers.

Hopefully next week I'll get the right water pump that I'll be happy to have on the car and I'll replace the cam belt.
