chanelle1234 Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 thanks guysIt still dont seem like ive accomplished it to be honest, it seems weid going from this;To thisIm so proud of myself for doing this and so gratefull for curt helping me. Also everyone on uksc who has helped me with any problems i have had and all my questions. Without you lot this project would not of been acheived. Its nice knowing that all the bits on my car i have chosen on my own, so i must have good taste by all the comments, also doing it myself rather than buying one that already has been turned into a rep as it feels more like mine if you know what i mean.Thanks everyone.

vit Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 hey ,should be very proud of yourself for that wicked transformation in that time and trust me that will not stop.. what next on the list.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chanelle1234 Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 UPDATE!!Right well i decided to get some gt front and rear seats today for the bargain price of £50 so i could not turn down this offer lol. Got them home and decided to give them a good hoover and clean. After dinner curt got straight in there and started fitting them. They were pretty hard to fit until curt had a idea, he pulled off the locating pin on the gearbox tunnel and bolted them in. Really happy with the result, they are so comfy and they sit so much lower than the n/a ones.Anyway here are some pics bellow.Chanelle x Quote Link to post Share on other sites

chanelle1234 Posted July 19, 2009 Author Share Posted July 19, 2009 They are so much more comfortable than the sr seats, they sit so much lower too. I love the material its so soft as soft as a babys behind lol. Now i just need the glanza door cards then the shitty sr interior will all be gone . Hopefully got another present coming tomorrow too cheers guyschanelle x Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Glanza_cl Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Nice work, has come along really nicely ;)bet your super happy with the results, sits really nicely on those rims too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chanelle1234 Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share Posted July 20, 2009 Right i toot a pic of the locating pin before curt put the seats in so people could see how we managed it. Im not 100% sure if this is right or not as curt is at work, but if i haven't explained it correctly then i will add the correct way later. What i think he done was cut the end of the locating pin down to it was level with the rail and then adjusted the bracket slightly so the bolt would go straight in, but as i said if im wrong i will edit this and put the correct way in.The locating pin before it was cut, holding the bracket in place.and this is how it sat once the seats were fitted.I dont know if this helps anyone at all.Anyway had my inlet mani turn up today yay, found it on www.247spares.co.uk for the bargain price of £46 all in. Looks in pretty good condition no cracks or rust etc etc. Will hopefully get this fitted in the next few weeks as i think curt needs a rest from working on my car for a bit lol.thanks for all the comments guys.chanelle x Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Russleh Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 good to see ya got a rolla mani and got your seats in ;) gonna be paintin up your mani ?Russell Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chanelle1234 Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share Posted July 20, 2009 Yeah i will paint it lol, thinking white atm but i know its going to get filthy after about a day lol, but if i keep on top of cleaning it shouldn't look too bad. Also going to purchase a new rocker cover gasket and spray the rocker cover red with white lines and white toyota print. Should make it look a lot fresher under the bonnet.chanelle x Quote Link to post Share on other sites
