Default My blobeye wagon

Just a quick one to show how my blobeye wagon is getting on.

Treated it to some goodies at the scoobie clinic the other day and its now running 301bhp with hopefully a bit more soon when i get my fmic and intake pipe on.

My friend who is quite handy with a camera (and a soon to be scooby owner) decided it was time to get out and get some decent pics taken so here they are! All comments welcome

Very nice mate, don't see many blob wagons.
Maybe detango the front lights and get tints on rear windows

its fairly easy mate, if you're half handy with a screwdriver you'll be ok, take your time, take care not to touch the in side of the glass, 10 - 15 mins in the oven at 100 degrees and it will come apart nicely, get some additional sealant to ensure it is fully sealed up when you put back together

When I have a free minute i will have a go at de tangoing.

I have to say grandy that wagon looks beautifull. I would really to remove the rails but i have looked before for roof strips to cover the wholes left.

I only asked the other day at scooby clinic and they said it couldnt be done, which i thought was odd as i have seen wagons without them.

Would be wonderful if you had the part numbers would make it a lot easier for me. Are the parts expensive? Its something i have wanted to do since i had had the car but worried about strips and damaging the head lining.
Are there any meets you go to as i wouldnt mind seeing your wagon? (trying not to sound gay!)

Trim clips 909130022 x 14
