Upgraded my wobble blocks to add a bit of colour and to match the Bilstein’s
At the same time, the annual copper grease the spare wheel carrier bolts.

@ C Chis what led number plate bulbs did you use?

The wobble blocks look good in anodised blue, did you make them yourself?

[mention]Katiecaddy [/mention] I went for the ones from Travelinlite.

These ones...

Straight fit, had to bend the contacts out a little as per the instructions. Good value too, £10 for the pair.

@ C Chis I've ordered those number plate lights earlier. Just to double check with you saying coded in that's for the taillights not the number plate lights??

Yeah, tail lights. The number plate lights are just a straight fit, my van is a 2010 pre-face lift

Thank you. Got them off a chap on Facebook on the group page on there. Loads of different colours

Just wondering the benefit of the wobble blocks mate? I guess there’s slight movement if you haven’t poly bushed your leaf spring?

@GtiAde I’ll have a look on there, they look really good quality

@Cabbs
Yeah it very much dulls down the axle movement you get when cornering etc after lowering. Don’t really want to poly bush as want some flex.

Really must do a build thread for my van, I’ve done that much to it.

@dikkies101 mate they look bang on what are they?

Lights looking good too it's all going on.

Mines off to the painters tomorrow after my mate scuffed the whole front of the bumper so it's getting the front bumper re done and the drivers wing replaced sprayed and blended in

Received my van on Wednesday. Absolutely love it.
Sounds backwards but I act fitted a bulkhead as I will be using her for work.
Team heko wind deflectors turned up, so did my rear bumper protector, and black badges.
Spent the day sound deadening and carpeting today but good progress so far. Top tint should be done tomorrow

Finally got round to putting the winters on today. I had a set of 12mm spacers to try as well. I thought they’d be ok with the winters but they fit like a glove behind the Sportlines as well
