I ripped out one of the rear facing seats, wife excames "wow it does open up a lot of space er yup!Image
Image
Also removed the top bunk to start extending it, got the new side rails in just to make the extension next. The boys will be downstairs and we'll be comfy up top.
Then a kitchen unit to go where the seat came out of.
Biggest hassle is I can't leave it in bits as she uses it everyday.

Fitted a new battery as it just click click clicked this morning, think I flattened it after fitting the radio yesterday, so I took it for a test and the garage told me its buggered ( which I suspected tbh) so I'm now £100 less off :cry: , and fitted the st grill badge..

Sorted out the wiring for my Sat Nav and dash cam yesterday so they only come on when I turn on the ignition, not a big thing for you boys, but at least it's a job sorted :)

Thinking I might put some black head lining on the dash top to cut the glare, be a bit of a mare to fit though :?

Played with my Argos special phone too, so I've got all me tune on it and it blue tooths to me radio :D

Focus suspension is all done now Mate :D Just fitted the rear shockers this aft. Bit of a shocker all round really cause the bloody bolts actually came undone pretty easy :D

Put the proper wheels back on with proper size tyres cause the new ones look a bit lost under all the extra clearance, but now my steering's off centre again, :evil:
