I am hoping all of the parts are installed by the next show, but you got it right on the head. The rad is just waiting on the lower hose to install, as soon as I have the hose, rad goes in, can't wait to get it in.

That's better

I noticed at 137mph the std handbrake is a bit lacking.

Got a good price on a pair of these whilst at Brands Hatch for Time Attack.........









Went for the 343's as they fit under my 17" winter wheels/tyres.


Also fitted these although the pictures don't do the brightness justice.....








Wired in as DRL's.....................

Brandon, yes went for some 115mm / 72LED lights in the end that fit flush to the back of the "light cone" (with a little bit of cutting to the bottom surface)

Fairly easy, but added a few extra fasteners to prevent droop between mounting points.

Fitted mine using "rubber nuts" so didn't need to take the sills off.

Yep made up a template off the extensions to position/line up a couple of the holes and then drilled through the rest.

If I remember correctly, used those supply by Mark with the extensions, and got rubber nuts to suit.
