Today

Fitted Skoda Fabia Estate rear wiper arm, wiper and cap,
Full Interior Lights to more moder looking white L.E.D
Boot Light upgraded to L.E.D
L.E.D Number plate lights
L.E.D front side lights
Uprated 6000k H7 and H1


As i had been getting condesation on the front windscreen when it rained.

Remove old Pollen Filter and correctly refitted a new one. The previous one was dry but it may aswell not have been fitted as its was crumpled on one corner

Resealed the front doors with Butyl sealant tape. There was no evidence of a leak on the front doors although the OE fitted foam was damp.

Rear doors. Evidence of Seal failure as there was moisture running down from the speaker area. But luckily both rear footwell are still bone dry.

Then it started to rain and i ran out of Butyle Sealant so one more door to go.


was a bit busy today :rofl:

Awaits delivery of Green Panel Filter, Forge 008,
