Postby intransit89 » Fri Dec 07, 2007 11:06 pm

been looking around the van to day after cleaning it 1 black bag full of rubish :shock: i all so found a tool for undoing the 6 stud wheels with the chassie name no on it and at the other end is red like a crow bar maybe for taking the ford wheel trim dishers of when it had them :lol: and a new window wiper in packet some bottle x2 says lucas on them maybe power steering fluid + i found a mk5 grill in silver so i can iver have it orange mk4 grill or mk4 in gray as it is on the van of a sprayed orange mk5 grill :D

next thing is geting a sliding door sorted and a new right one on back door or a pair if the scrap man does me all the 3 doors for a nice price :)

moving the wooden bulk head to behoind the sliding door so its like a crew cab with gray line carpet in and it will be two single carlton seats in
but tomoro after i been to scrap yard i will be puting some speakers in behind the plastic covers nere the shock nuts cover if you know where i mean as i tock the mk4 door cards of and there ant any speaker holes to put any in + if i do put some in as on the mk3/4/5 problems i put about fiting speakers and it seem you just cut a template out and put them in the door card it self but as i need some better door card as the tray at bottem broken and one missing i will use these two to try before useing the other ones when i get some tomoro :wink:
so that will be 4 speakers at the front mght even put some in the bulk head and get a 3 seater transit seat like the ones in the transit tourneo that fold IF i get one that is might even have to be one out a car to match the front ones when i put them in and make a wooden box and use the bulk head as if thay was in a car but dont know yet! any way thats it for to day :lol:
