I haven't tried them with the glass in yet, im guessing i wont be able to see alot but im more concerned with what's going on in front of me
Wow, superb job on the car, looks really really good. I actually like the mirrors. I think you should keep them red like the car. I think you can get away with the mirrors as the car isnt a 2.0 16v anymore, its more of a hybrid so the mirrors are good. Good work mate.
Mirrors are marmite jobby some will hate them but some including me love them
You gonna tray for a feature in a mag at somepoint?
Its certainly a break from the norm
I've decided for red mirrors and black base plates, i'll see how it looks on the car and if i don't like it get them repainted in black.
Was suposed to go in Golf+ last year but that fell through for some unknown reason
i'll be on the case again once i've got a few more bits done thoughI'll run out of money before things to do, i've got a list as long as your arm of to do's
Agreed, a definate no!
You 2 know me far to well
i think a vario would be good fun, i'd deffo look at swapping my engine into one if i ever had the need for an estate
Well i got 3 kids so need it at the mo yougest doesnt need a pram any more so go 2new subs lol,i think it would be grate in an estate!and just imagan peoples faces!when you use the loud pedle!rember the volvo t5 touring car estates they were grate!
Quick update on the last month or so's progress (or lack of)
1 week before Cadwell my gearbox decided to spring a leak, after finding a broken diff bolt and a few missing teeth from 4th it meant i wouldn't be taking the ibiza, gearbox is now rebuilt (hopefully with a stronger bolt set up this time) and the car is back on the road
I've finally got my dtm's back from the paintshop aswell, fitted them tonight and i don't think i like them
Opinions welcome, but i think i'll stick them up for sale and look for something else
Also noticed tonight whilst on the ramp the oil cooler pipework is starting to look a bit tatty, think my next task is to remove the cooler and all pipework and hopefully go for a different location and some braided lines
I'll update the thread as i go

I was going to paint everything but decided the black would break it up a bit
I'll be bringing a bag of broken bits to this months meet
I'd always wanted a set of the proper ones but now i've got them i think i prefer the copies over them, not that i was a big lover of them anyway, if that makes sense
It's already got the origianl ones back on it mate, i looked at them for ages at work and just wasn't sure on them, decisions decisions, i only want to put my door trims back on
Haha you're terribe! I need to copy your wiring for your mirrors at some point if that's okay?
Yeah no probs mate, i'll try and write it down 2moz as im going to try and refit the trims at lunch
Too late mate, there in the box and going on the bay as soon as i can be bothered
Now that im back to heated, elecy mirrors i think i'll leave them alone and conentrate on something else, catch tank needs re-working
