Yeah, even the rear two sqare worklights give off a huge amount of light - I tested them with a temp supply and was very impressed. Can't wait to get them all hooked up, will be great for getting changed and driving off the fishing/farm tracks in the dark evenings.

Cheers and a wee update...

Fitted smoked side indicator units at the weekend which blend in a lot better than the orange ones. Also got the back seats out, very easily in about 20 minutes. Measured up for plywood floor and already have dark grey car carpet waiting to cover it (bought 15mm ply today). Due to some noisy rubbing on the front arches - only when reversing on hard lock, and only sometimes.... I trimmed a wee bit off the very bottom of the front arches liner and front bumper (not visible) - seems to have solve the issue.

Had intended fitting my twin lightbars to the front of the roof rack this weekend, BUT on opening the fixings packets last night to check all the bits for the 4 mounts were there... one of the special shaped little slider blocks was missing. Now playing email tag with the seller to get him to send the missing part, and that NO a £5 refund for it being missing will not suffice! since I can't fit without it and it's a bespoke part. Ho-Hum.

Seats out, waiting on plywood and carpeting


Used the seat mount posts for fixing some tie down points I had lying around and spacer from spare Shogun ARB bushes

Great work you've done in such a short amount of time.

Yeah I don't like to hang about when I have a plan, plus the trout season will be starting in a few weeks so want to get the bulk of work done before then so's not to waste fishing time working on the car B)
