What I did with my Rover 75/MG ZT today? - Page 709

oxfordblue75 · 23rd July 2017, 14:26

Spent weekend upgrading to full harman kardon system , now have a nice bass beat

marinabrian · 23rd July 2017, 15:38

Fitted the new fuel filter I found in the boot of my 416 yesterday after searching high and low for it last weekend when I changed my oil pollen and air filters on the Primertallic ZT.

Filled it up at the same pump as I did a couple of weeks back, and 680 miles for £65 worth of diesel

I just need to await the arrival of the Gates MicroVee aircon and auxiliary belts to arrive and get them on, to call it serviced

You can't beat a leisurely two week service

Went down to Trikey's (Thank you Andy and Debs) to get started on the list of jobs required for the new toy. Got loads done (well Andy did most of it)New Bonnet, replacement bonnet cable, repaired headlights, got self levelling working, replaced O rings no more whoosh sound

, discovered it had heated washer jets, a kenlowe fan and gold resistor fitted. All under bonnet bolts replaced with stainless steel. New bumper acquired for repaint in disappointing Grey.

Fitted the dash cam into Banana. Checked all the fluid levels ready for her next adventure.

Nextbase. It was a gift from a neighbour. Was fitted in the Bear but as I'm selling the Loud one I thought Banana should inherit it. Will get it hard wired in at some point, currently plugged into the thingy that lights a cigar, whatever that is.

Does a pretty good good of hiding a few very minor touch-up marks that were there when I got her.
Pretty pleased with this cheap fix.

Where's the best place to get the s/s under bonnet bolts? Does someone sell a 'kit' or do you have to measure up each one and source them accordingly? Thanks...

DMGRS do a kit for the bumper bolts. There's a list somewhere of the other ones you'll need, which can be sourced cheaply from eBay.
