raddo_tom 0 Posted June 13, 2009 Well I spotted this L reg 16v.... I thought.... It'd be rude not to fully late spec up this Dyson! So I thought i'd start fro the inside out... The valver... So out with the Early Spec Grey interior... I was left with this.... Then I noticed that the spoiler wasn't looking right on the new shell or the central locking thing in the boot or just ANYTHING in the smallest cavern imaginable! So after i got the rear carpet door cards front seatbelts out I started on that and lost the will to take any more pics! It was a NIGHTMARE! I ended up stripping out the full motor from the late spec interior donor car and going mad! Took bloody hours and i'm still pissed off! lol. Lucily for you my mate got handy with my camera till I lost my cool and took it out on him because he was using my camera... lol Then as Corrado's do! The weather turned.... So now my dining room looks like this And the Corrado looks like this Nedless to say i'm tired and wired but tomorrow I plan to get things moving! :clap: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raddo_tom 0 Posted June 13, 2009 Words can't describe! It's like being a kid again and just going at it with a bit of commen sence and the desire to figure out how it all goes together! But i've got the security blanket of two other ones to get it right with/rob the parts off... Not like the time I took my Alba sterio to bits. :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raddo_tom 0 Posted June 14, 2009 Right so here goes.... On my first coffee sarnie and cig break of the day! So thought i'd update! After all hell broke loose with the annoying boot lock and spoiler issues :censored: Things seem to be back on track! How it was this morning.... A hour or so later... Before Cig Break... It's only when you put them back together from nothing that you realise how well made these bad boys are!! I know it's defeating the object putting it all in only to take it out when i find the leather i'm after.... But for now sod it! I'd rather know it's all there! :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
