Title: My not so poverty GLS tractor now!
Post by: stuy112 on 16 November 2008, 19:22:23
Not put any progress pics on here, so heres some new ones that I took today with its latest mods.

Since I got the car I've done 13k miles in 4 months, so it doesnt stay still very long (or clean  :-[ ) It also gets serviced at the dealers every month!

Here's a pic taken a couple of weeks after I got it on a day out in Lloret de Mar (was on hols in France)

First mod was just before I set off to France, the essential cruise contol, plug the new stalk in and it works!

On my return from France I had hid's fitted at the York meet.

Then came the wheels..

Then the fuel 'puter, just needs the correct code putting in as the one we had put the engine management light on, mate with tech 2 is working on it

Then the sunvisors were fitted

Then this weekend Mark and Ian_D fittted leather (supervised by amigo and myself), all the electrics work and heated bits (also fitted a front window after the car was broken into on Friday night)

Nearly a full row of buttons!!

Todays mission was to convert the manual rear windows to electric...
My mate Kev sorting the loom out

All done and dusted, and all working!

Meanwhile Ian_D got busy under the bonnet (cleaning apparently?)

(http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b25/stuy1122/car%20pics/40600013.jpg)

Think he's really a secret convert to the weasle power  ;D

I'll get some better pics when I've cleaned it sometime!
Few more jobs to do yet, I've got a chip to try, and a bumper with fogs to fit shortly  :y

Very nice mate. Nice mods too.

Shame you were broken into, but good you got it sorted so quickly. No damage other than the glass I hope.

I'll find sommat for you to do next, probs wire amp up for the sub, top banging tunes ding  :y

Only other damage (apart from my missing mp3 player) was the small bits of glass that I sat on for an hour on the way to Marks, I'm tempted to take Guy up on his offer of removing them for me  :-?
