Washed, dried and polished outside. Cleaned all windows, polished dash, wiped leather down, vacumed carpets/seats and cleaned mats. Finally stood in kitchen looking at zt out of the window in admiration for a fair few minutes.

Today I fitted an air filter. Changed the boot cover clip for a new one (Thanks T-Shirt) I tried to repair my loose fitting rear light, to no avail.

Oil service, chrome painted roof bars and grille, fixed a dash rattle/vibration, fixed a plasticy knock from front wheel wells and finally stuck some felt tape around the bottom of the handbrake handle because feels nice and it stopped the handbrake button from rattling. All in all very happy but still not had the confidence to do the in life stat! 😀

Today i got round to fitting the led side lights and Osram Dipped Beam Bulbs..

And finally installed my budget tablet Which cost £85 inc all the parts i needed here are a few pics but no before or during just bits and finished. I wired the 12v socket to the ignition feed to the stereo with an inline fuse for protection. I threaded the Infrared wire for the steering controls for the Kenwood stereo through the cage so it still works the stereo. Then plugged in the Kenwood rca adapter into the stereo which turns the CD function into an Aux for the input from the tablet.

Few little bits today:

Fitted this little gem so I can use my phone through the existing stereo, just for music obviously but saved me getting a new stereo.
http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/151217241529?nav=RVI&sbk=1

Fitted a new grille badge as mine has totally faded, can recommend this one as it is very good quality and fitted perfectly.
http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/261365524164?nav=RVI&sbk=1

Fitted a new set of wiper blades having seen the thread on here I went for the aero flat ones and they seem much much better so far. I went for the 22" driver and 21" passenger from a seller called performanceraceparts and I'm very happy.

Finally fitted a spangly new set of number plates with the D shaped rear. Really sets the car off nicely.

Tomorrow will be a good clean and then next week I'll be fitting the egr bypass, inline stat and changing the gearbox oil. May also fit a set of 4.3k or 6k xenon conversions but havent decided on that yet.

Today I have partly fitted my reversing camera until my hands and back gave out , decided that was enough, ate my roast dinner and had a cat nap for a couple of hours.

Tis such a hard life , that is until the morning and back off to work.

Don't suppose you have any pictures of the rails? I'm very tempted to chrome paint mine and wondered how they worked out?

Today got up at reasonable time and washed ZT before going for a run to chelmsford. It was a nice sunny day out in Essex although was a chipper 5 degrees. Nice to get outside and enjoy the sun for a change, roll on spring lol.
