Taken the rear headlining out, fixing the wires up etc, going to dye the headlining too.
Any recommendations for cleaning the headlining first?
Seen @doc did this a couple of years ago.
Got 5 litres of autobrite to use, going to make a right mess :D

Coilovers ordered and booked in to be fitted next week. Just trying to decide on alloys now but I keep flip flopping between 3 sets. Just can't decide.

This is the current situation of my van. Recently brought it damaged, have stripped back and now on hold waiting for my parts to arrive. Intake manifold needs changing. Soon as I've got everything running perfect I will then start with the panels. ImageImage

Appreciate that mate, but I've just brought a pair from ebay. I purchased the black edition headlight with drl, non xenon version. I wanted xenon but not in my budget right now.

You should get £150 for the pair easy. Image

@Fishcatdog

I've now narrowed it down to 2 sets. A riviera set and a veemann set. The veemann wheels aren't usually my type but I think they would look smart. The riviera's are my safe option

Finally got my GTD seats in on touran bases. So much more comfortable than the originals and a lot more adjustable than I expected. Was expecting to be sitting a bit higher than I normally prefer but could lower them down quite a bit.
Thanks to tommyzoom for the airbag loom.
