It must go down and out then as sticking a screwdriver in felt like another metal skin

Well I'm half way through fitting one of Paul's rear brake disc conversion kits. I will continue early tomorrow morning.
Looking good so far though. :D

Today I'm glad I wasted my time fitting my subs. Sounds bloody awful!
I think I'm going to have to remove the metal bulkhead and make an MDF one with a cut out for the subs to poke through.
With any luck it might sound ok then....

I changed my steering wheel today for a leather mk7 fiesta wheel, after reading up on it on here. Took less than 30 mins and 20 of that was waiting about after disconnecting the battery. I thought id struggle releasing the air bag clips, but I found by placing the flat head screwdriver in and turning it clockwise popped em off first time. Thank god that horrible plastic wheel has gone. Feels so much nicer to drive now. I also fitted a new leather gaiter and gear nob whilst I was at it. Sourcing some new wheels next. How do you upload pics?
