Today was fun! Received my LEDs from partsulike, excellent service from them! I fitted the 3 in the roof, all ok, messed with the glovebox and blew the fuse. Searched everywhere, including the manual, unable to find out which it was. Went to halfords and asked them to get the multimeter on it, turns out its no.24, which is body control unit, a 20 amp fuse!

Anyway, got a new fuse and all LEDs done, a big improvement on the standard ones.

Also, I had an arm rest in my Clio and really enjoyed it, however £150 for the seat one is a lot and I don't have the money, so I decided to do a makeshift arm rest to satisfy my needs for now, and it's really quite good!

I used the rest from my Clio arm rest since I can't be bothered to sell it, got two bits of piping for gutters, don't know what they're called, fitted a bit of wood into them, screwed the rest to it and done!

I'm happy with it because it just rests in the cup holders so its just a case of lifting it out. It doesn't wobble, and also has storage space too. The fabric colours are also a fairly good match, bear in mind the flash on the camera making it worse!

Jarry was the MOT done before or after you had the sports cat removed? ie did the cat pass?

Me and my MK2 FR travelled to the gym. She waited patiently as a pumped Ron. We then headed home for me to get showered then took a longish trip to clear the DPF filter :D

Today got the car washed, and went to prospeed exhausts to get my custom induction kit installed!
After that, I attended the Audi & VAG International day at Castlecombe Circuit, and got a new S.hark map which feels amazing!

So I had the car on the rollers today at EcoTune in Hillington (Glasgow) who are renowned for being brutally honest. I was surprised that the car managed to do better than expected and the best of 3 runs peaked a 153.5bhp, 245 ft/lbs torque! Not bad for a Stage One REVO map and a panel filter!

So first full day back in England yesterday and someone has bumped my new diffuser :( It looks like a tow bar went into it and all the gloss paint is flaking. I am so upset I just wish id stayed in Germany.
