I know people who've had to cut OMP cages up and re-weld the feet back on.
They're made in Italy. I don't like to stereotype, but....
Haha ok then
Anyway DAY 1!
Started off the day nice and frosty at -3
Few of the car before things get crazy
Will definitely be lifting it up a little for track use ...
Anybody seen these seats before? They have airbags and are in next I mint condition haha
Started with whipping some of the seats out (which weigh a ton!)
And then all the boot stuff!
Terrible picture haha
Then sorted the front carpet and expose all the heavy soundproofing!
A nice pile of interior
Ripped all the soundproofing out and also the side panels
End of the day pictures!
Quite happy with the progress for today
Couple of small questions.
Does anyone recommend leaving the thick soundproofing behind the glovebox you can see on the last picture incase of engine bay fires etc??
I looked at along it out and I will need to cut it up so thought I best ask first as I won't be able to put it back haha
Also how do you remove the trim and handle for the bonnet release? Tried pulling it off with no success haha
I also did a little Weighing o a few parts I took off to see what weight I'm saving
Did weigh everything but here's a little list
Front seats were 22kg each (which I think are lighter then the recaros
Back seats
Parcel shelf
Spare wheel
Some sound proofing (not all of it)
And a few bits of crap (2kg)
All added upto 45kg
So just with that I'm saving 89kg!!
And the car is still full of stuff which i havent weighed inc - carpet, panels and other crap! Haha
Next step is going to be to remove all the sound proofing stuck to the floor and eventually paint all the inside satin black just to tidy it up a little
