Today I fitted COB led's to my interior lights. Now very bright......

Just waiting for the sun to go down

Changed my cabin pollen filter today.
Was pleasantly surprised that the ECU cables were long enough to lift the unit completely clear without having to undo the brown cable clips.
Checked plenum drains at the same time - all clear, as usual.
Whole job took ten minutes.

The only downside was that one of those silly clips on the scuttle/windscreen retainer pinged off when I levered it out, and vanished down the back of the engine.
Presumably it'll drop out on the road somewhere, never to be seen again.
Really cross with myself, because normally I always put a finger over the clip to prevent just that, grr!

The rear loads space lights was a simple stick in and forget. The lights by the rear view mirror need some modding with a dremmel to get them in but well worth the effort. Will try and get a pic when it does a bit darker.......

Today I spent about 1 HR removing a paint scrape on my rear bumper that someone kindly left whilst wifey went to supermarket.

Annoyingly had I gone with her we could have parked in the disabled bay and it probably wouldn't have happened.

In the end I replaced it, and no further problems..

It looks like it's sorted, if it goes again though a new sensor it may be

(Yesterday I drove my brother from Gloucester to Catford south London to pick up a new car and back, 75 never skipped a beat, never used any oil or coolant and was very comfy 250 miles)

Today I washed her and topped up the clutch master cylinder just in case. What a b*5terd to get to !!!!
