Fairly easy. I done it with a mate so helped. Still took me about 4 -  5 hours to lay it to the roof lining

Ignored the above, and lowered it another 10mm on the colies. Its on the floor for edition!

Machine polishing the car today hopefully, lets see how that goes!

Thought id put a little update.

Only minor things. The car has been running great - s not much to report!

I dont have a picture of this, but I pulled the camber out of the front wheels so they now sit dead flush with the front arches. Pretty pleased with that as I was looking to buy 6-8mm adaptors, so it saved me about £30!   :lol:

All trivial stuff but its starting to make the difference to me. Its all in the detail. Something my car lacks at the moment lol

Oil breather:



Original and genuine golf ball gear knob and I have also FINALY replaced that damn mk3 handbrake lever for what should really be there!



A couple of pics from edition/prept/ nw dubs tunnel runs:




you can semi see how much of a difference the camber has made on the car now in this actualy...


[


Getting fairly happy with how it is all going with it now.  I am after some new speaker pods from shakey, and possibly a bit of a twist for the inlet manifolds again. Not sure how/when that will work out if at all just yet.

Major thing for me right now? Save. Save hard. I want some fresh paint!
