Hard wired camera into the Insignia,  Couldn't find a ignition live in the roof,, so used a piggyback fuse in the fusebox, not ideal but it works...

Then tried to set memory seats, can't do that, and am struggling with the "Infotainment" system, phone working, radio works, so that'll do  :)

Had a new air suspension compressor fitted to the Range Rover..
Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level & beat you with their experience.

Ordered a used squib of the bay and a horn button to fit the steering wheel on the Austin.

I did post up a clinky for the sale,, but these came from an independent,, cheaper than from Bilstein even with 40% off.

Better?
.

There's a definite improvement, her big arse doesn't wobble as much now,  that may have been wobbling due to having two different units on the back, 1 original and one a munro,,, just keep my eyes open for a pair of fronts at good price.

Cleaned the RRS checked fluids etc, off to collect the "tin tent" tomorrow for a few days away in Sussex.

Fitted the squib to the Austin, found a plug in the box off old Omega wiring but it had one to many terminals to plug in the back. Bit of snipage and it fitted. Next problem was the wheel adaptor had to be machined down to fit the centre turning bit,40 grit flap disc in the angle grinder works! Waiting for a horn push to finish the job.

Changed the oil in hers, purposely only to halfway up the dipstick to test a theory about a potential fault....

I think it could be a schoolboy error on my part, so I may have to apologise for all the words I said about that Callum town.
