Boring update
Was revising till late last night, needed a break and ended up staying up to 4am in my garage lol.

Rubber gasket round the aerial was fubared:

Previous owner must have fitted an old phone aerial or something on the rear window:

To do all this required removing some of the panels and some of the roof lining:

Then microphone wire needed fitting so ended up taking out the panels on the drivers side lol.

Microphone is now hidden under the steering wheel, gps wire routed under the panels to the boot, aerial gasket changed and ipod adapter fitted properly into the glove box and wiring sorted:

you are arent you get that suspension fitted :)

lol, I will I will, all in good time. Decided I want to refurb and respray the wheels I've bought first, so they can go straight on with the lows. Will take me about a weekend or 2, to do. Need to decide on a colour though. Needs to be dark(ish), shiney, not black/grey, and something that will go with silver! Either dark metallic blue or dark red......Not too everyones taste but who cares, its my car :bleh:
Ideas? Pics of a colour would be nice ;)
