Thanks dude :)

big adapters!! et69 wheels so 40mm front and 35mm rear adapters used!

I use dodo juice purple haze for the wax brings the black out brillaintly,

but bit of an asortment also.

elite car care snow foam,
meguiars gold class shampoo
meguiars car clay kit every so often,
two bucket wash with wash mitts everytime!
elite car care waffle weave drying towels,
autoglymn deep resin shine to seal every few months,
dodo juice lime prime before the dodo juice purple haze,
rain-x for the glass cleaning and perfect glass beading!

think thats the gist of it but also have various wheel stuff but the black bbs-ch's i just the gold class shampoo then just a basic wheel wax with meguiars tyre gloss.

Finally finish off installing the pioneer avic x3
Speed sensor wire now all connected up so super accurate sat nav :)
The unit now allows full control of the ipod on the touchscreen, along with bluetooth connection :)
Also fitted a switch to turn off the air suspension control, partly acts as another immobiliser, but also now
allows me use the radio whilst driving. Using the digital guages and sensers causes me a grounding problem which interfered with the fm reception, tried a supressor and fm amplifier. So immobilser switch was last resort.

Proper happy with the results as it looks very oem :)

Fixed up a problem i had with the x3, i didnt have the speed pulse information it required, found the speed pulse to be pin one in the seat power plug, therefore i connected it upto the sat nav brain, reset the system and microsensers. Now works very acurately and learning all the time as a 3D Hybrid satnav :)

thanks for the comments guys.

Met up with a few local chaps today for a mini shoot.

Appears my car is alot lower than i thought it was.

Just booking the leon in to have the chasis notched!

on full lock the driveshaft is resting fully on the chasis and opposite lock the arb!

So hopefully the front of the leon with actually sit lower soon!
