Where did you get the inlet manifold from bud? How much too?

Bay looks a lot nice, I want to do the same with my bay, or along the same lines. Cleaning it up and putting to better bits on it.

Got the inlet and a polished rocker cover from a Mate for £50.

Sold the rocker cover on as it would have looked too much  :undecided:. It's a 50mm inlet instead of the standard 44mm item.

Think I'll start and keep me eyes peeled for a green samco hose kit  :cool:

amazing what you buy when drunk  :embarassed:

Cheers Dec :afro:

Well, decided that the rear seats were neither use nor ornament so out they came, along with the seatbelts, parcel shelf and the shelf supports.

When I had done this though I had lost all of my rear speakers  :sad: and the stereo sounded crap  :angry:

I'm going for a complete re-trim to get rid of the old grey interior and get something done to match the whole colour theme of the car.

I kept looking at this.....................



And then I decided that this is what I needed to do (cue the noise of power tools, saws and hammers. Along with the smell of glue  :grin:)



I know it doesnt match anything in there yet but it's a start. Also the shallow fit sub is about half the weight of a normal one  :cool:
