ChrisssAhhh Posted June 8, 2015 Author Share Posted June 8, 2015 Ok lads she's finally back from paint I'm delighted with it here's a pic of it the day I got it backI went a bit mad on the Sunday then tidying up a few little bits that were annoying me, so a quick trip to halfords and picked up a few bits.First of all my wiper arms and blades were worn so I bought some new Bosch wipers, the arm were rusted and horrible so I spreyed them satin black along with the scuttle pannel as it had also seen better days,Before:After:It's the little things that really do wonders for the car.Next I had a set of plates I had bought a few months ago from jamesq2 on here so I got some heavy duty Velcro and stuck my new plates on, I used Velcro so it would be handy to change plates for nct.Before:After:Then I split my amber corners and fitted the brand new lenses I had Comparison old vs newIt's booked in for a service at BiMotoGarage this Saturday and I've one or two little bits left to tidy here and there have to clean the engine bay this weekend and refurb the lights, must get some better pics at the Dublin meet my phone camera is crap.

ChrisssAhhh Posted July 18, 2015 Author Share Posted July 18, 2015 Thanks lads, @JDMfreak I followed the wires from my dome light down the drivers A pillar and into the footwell and spliced into them down there only takes a few mins, there was these little red things on the end of the cable for the loom for the light and you clip them on and they make a cut so you don't have to go soldering it's very tidy if you have them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JDMfreak Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 ah right I may do that I was half thinking of wiring them into my sidelight somehow but think this is better the way you explained it did you have 2 red wires and one black as mine does Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisssAhhh Posted July 19, 2015 Author Share Posted July 19, 2015 Yeah the black is an earth and there is a red/silver one with a white strip and a red/silver one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
