oohh i got lots planned :p i need to get it looking decent to start off with though, i would make a lovely long list like SoundillusioN  has in his thread but im not that organised and would miss half of it off anyway

  Dude..... i'm not organised, lists only started near the end as I had my fingers in too many pies and started loosing track of what i needed and what i already had etc. plus its near MOT time now so trying to get priorities right.

yeah you're doing the right thing at the mo so just keep at it mate,   nice plans too.

it seems the earth problem is back, i ran it yesterday and went to start it today and it wont start, wont even crank

the battery is at 12.4 so im assuming this is the earth again, so i may have to go to the scrapyard and get a new earth strap

I take back what i said about power steering! got the tyres pumped up properly today and it made a huuuge difference, its really nice to drive now, it seems to pull a bit better than my 1.4 astra aswell

Got the radio sorted aswell, was easy with that adapter so cheers for the link  
I have speakers to put in the front and rear door cards, not sure wether to keep the tweaters on the dash or not?

tweeters are better on the dash than in the doors if thats what you're thinking.... glad youve sorted out your wiring.

Im not too good with all the audio stuff, but i have 4(component?) speakers for the front and rear door cards and my sub to go in the boot
all 4 of the speakers have a tweeter in the middle already


Im struggling to find somwhere to get an earth strap from, rang round all the local car parts places including GSFcar parts and none sell them

oh i see what you're saying... well try them with and without, you may find that if you wire them in, at high volume with all the other stuff you have going on they'll blow eventually anyway if you feel the need to crank it up!

not sire what to suggest about the earth strap now unless you keep looking for a long length of universal or go scrappers like you said.

Halfords with a tenner, leaver with earth cable/strap and lunch money in your pocket.
