I reprinted my aux switches panel with the final layout, space for the distance meeter and a usb-C charger (more pics in my build thread).

I did the front speaker "upgrade".  I'm not overly impressed.  The Pioneer speakers that fit the kit don't sound a lot better than the stock speakers and probably cost about a fiver to make, given that the all-in cost of them is only about £20. There's more bass but no real clarity.  I bought some much better Rockford Fosgate 13cm speakers but they don't fit into the mounting rings.  Not much does.

Also, the mounting screws that come with the speakers appear to be made from cheese. I have JIS, Pozi and Philips bits and none stopped them from rounding out.

Fitted new rear wheel bearings and installed the rear brake disc kit as well.  Does feel a lot better. Not a massively noticeable difference, but definitely taken the pulsing feeling out of the pedal having new hardware installed.

2" Trailmaster suspension lift, 2"body lift, snorkel, full breather kit, 29" steel wheels with BFG tyres, tinted rear windows, CRT CB radio with modulator antenna mounted on rear, dog cage and tray in the back.

Took the gen3 auto to the main dealer (it probably hasn't been near one for 9 years) for its new remote key.

Got the gen4 into the garage.  Too much faff unscrewing the aerial, taking the security chain off the door (I chain the central member of the up-and-over door to a ground anchor to thwart burglars) and making sure it's in far enough for the door to clear the roof on its way down.  Won't bother again!
