First start up of the new year, plus other bits and pieces!

So went down the garage this morning, new battery in hand. Installed.............3 pumps of the throttle, and turn the key................started straight up and ticked over lovely. Not many modern cars you could leave for 5 months and have then start with no issues.

So wheels now fitted with the 1 inch lowering blocks. K & N filter fitted. Door cards cleaned up, and blank speaker grills fitted to fill the holes already in the custom cards, just tidies them up! New RS2000 graphic installed on the front bib spoiler.

Sorted out the switches on the dash, cleaned up the connections and got the hazard lights to operate correctly, and also took out the original non working ciggarette lighter unit and installed a new mk2 escort one, all working correctly!

Pictures below of how she now looks now............along with Kermit on the drivers seat (my wife calls the car Kermit and bought me one for Christmas).
