Na bud I don't once parts are in me hand I get itchy feet n I'm off just bord of the front looking like a monster truck lol
Yer bud keep meaning to hit the beacons field meet but think ill b there this month n if ur in hemel just message me I'm always here lol
Had to b done in the end as coilovers just weren't getting the stance I wanted but I only know one button n that's down lol
Youv done pretty much exactly what I did. Got coilovers fitted them for like a day or two then went and bought air
Ok so I have started to run the air lines through the k1 and remembered that the interior is gunna have to come out to make my life easier so striped everything out
After that it was time to start running the lines from the rear to the front
Passengers side first
As you can see the power for the air being run too all under the carpets of the car as I don't want to have to worries about catching the air line whilst driving
Now the air line is we're it needs to b just need to drill a hole to get the line into the arch to connect to the bag
Now drivers side
Didn't take as many this side as I didn't think you would wonna see too many of the same pics
Now as time to run the cable to the control panel go the management once again under the carpet it is as I'm going o mount the control panel under the head unit
Control panel connected once the centre console is back in i can fabricate a bracket for it and box it in ready to b trimmed
Roughly we're it will sit wen finished
Will up date tomoz if the snow doesn't settle hopping to have the bags on and connected so can test for any leaks

Also had a look at the Clarence n I can drive like that if I want
Now the bad bit after 4 hour of beat the hub with a rubber mallet as not to damage anything I managed to get one coilover off so will b out there 2 moz hopefully to get the rest done
Just need to get the front shock n bag in but it's a ball ache lol
