    thanks dude, future mods will be getting a good job to pay for fuel, then after that will be just to fix up simple **** like paint interior (some parts missing) etc. then long long plans will think of that when i get there

    also got a small wattage amp of haydz on the weekend, projuces lots and lots of boot rattle, i've got cardboard wedged inbetween the boot skin and frame. now the number plate,moldings,bumper bar and P plate rattle so gotta get my self a few tubes of silicon i thinks
    i know the wireing could use some cable ties, but better then how it was all saterday and sunday <>_<>
