I tinted my rear lights and repeaters,looks good. Thought about headlights but bit unsure how/if it would reduce the brightness of the beam.

Picked up a double DIN console from fords that I'm going to try and fit my iPad to, also fitted my CB, and plumbed in the boost gauge, but not put it in the dash yet....

I currently changing my dash in my 2003 connect to the mk2 dash (better colour than the green looking one)

& it will match my doors cards :D now I have finally got the electric windows & heated elec mirrors fitted.

Got the old dash removed, what a nightmare with wiring though ! I will finish it tomorrow & add pics.

Also will be fitting this as well

together with this - my new stereo !

Gloss black definitely. Better to match the arches rather than the wheels.
