i sold the calais as i was sick of fixing the dam thing it was one thing after another. and i got a good price for it the way it was. I wasnt planning on getting a car yet as im saving for something better, and this poped up for $500 so i grabbed it to drive around for awhile. i thought i would be able to last riding the bike everywhere but its harder than i thought lol
removed towbar yesterday, and just put in amp and sub. have paid for high rise console and should be in the post by monday, going to pick up berlina door trims on saturday. ill post up some pics when i get new trims and high rise. also removed dodgy old school tacho that was in the car
got a few pics,
one of the door trims on, only bad bit is the power window switch but oh well
new deck and s2 dash cluster
have spoken to seller and highrise will be poted on monday morning as he has recieved money so should get it next week some time.
now on ceptors after getting lock nuts off that i didnt have the key for lol. next lowering it, hopefully be done not long after long weekend. already have rear shocks and springs just need front springs.
