Pro Tip: Double sided tape and 40 Degree plus days in summer don't mix.

Cable tie the Leds under the chair/dash ftw.
Also, how loose are the cables under the front chairs to the LED strip?
Looks pretty easy to snag a shoe on one.

If you buy good quality double sided tape that is rated it isn't a problem man, iv had the same set up for the last 3 years in my Calais and it has never let go from a hot day etc, plus the LEDs weigh nothing aswell.

Yer thay have plenty of slack cable so the seat can go all The Way back and forward without pulling tight etc but it actually doesn't hang down in the way at all, the pics were just taken when I first did it not after I had tidied up the slack etc plus I don't have more than one passenger, it's my weekend toy not a family car ;)

Cheers scott

Ok what do you guys think should I have the Hsv engine cover or no engine cover?









Also I'm thinking of pulling of the under bonnet cover thing as it looks a dirty black even after a wash, what do yo guys think? Is it really needed?

No engine cover and get the Edelbrock coil covers like VYNath has.

I prefer the look of engine covers, it makes everything look a lot cleaner and neater, so i say keep it but that's just me.
