Thanks for the nice comments!

These are just the factory rear quarter tints.  I'll try and get a straight on pic when I get the car back so you can see the difference.

Nice wheels! I nearly went for that colour too.

I've yet to spot another ED30 in my area (Kent) - which is nice in one way but I'd be cool to pull up along side another too  :wink:



I saw a 5dr ED30 coming through the dartford crossing on saturday, looked great, and a black 3dr in Buxton yesterday! But sadly on both occasions I was not in mine  :sad: Looks great by the way pe3ps!! :cool:

Sigh...  this whole car thing is really getting me down!

It was supposed to be returned on Wed / Thu with the door problem fixed and the scratch filled and resprayed.

I called today to ask when it was likely to be back.  They said the door parts had just arrived (3pm) and they would fit them today - and that they'd ordered a new grill instead of re-spraying.  Hopefully I'll get it back tomorrow?

The scratch on my bumper is on the black shiney bit between the number plate and the red strip... is this part of the grill?

I got a call yesterday saying my stereo / bt adapter would be shipping today - so hopefully I'll get them tomorrow too - and can maybe have a stab at fitting them at the weekend!  Or perhaps I might just drive the car instead since I havent had a proper shot yet  :cry:

the black section is removable, so it'll be easy enough to fit quickly  :smiley:

So I should probably be glad they're replacing it rather than just fixing it?!
Fingers crossed shes back tomorrow!

My neighbour just rang the bell and handed me my stereo / bt kit!  It must've been delivered today whilst I was at work.  That'll be a wee project for the weekend if I get a chance  :evil:

I will post some pics and let you know how it goes once its done.  I will be doing the stereo and the BT adapter both at the same time, so it may take a while!  I need to figure out where I'm going to put the iPod so that I can run the cable to there... and I also need to run a cable for the BT's microphone somewhere on the roof!  I might be tempted to get an iPod Dock and wire that in.

I checked the wiring from the stereo against the wiring from my CanBus and it all seems to match up.  I just need to join the orange wire from the CanBus connector to the Alpine one as they have it loose (dimmer).  I've had the dash apart already fitting my Micro Roadpilot GPS antenna - so I'm not scared of doing that anymore!

Away to Gran Canaria next weekend - so hopefully I'll manage before then.  If not, it'll just have to wait!

In my previous GTi, I had an Alpine headunit with iPod adapter. Drilled a small hole in the side of the glovebox, fed the lead through into the glovebox to the iPod. The iPod itself was in a slip case with a couple of small velcro patches on the back. Two matching patches on the "floor" of the glovebox kept everything secure, and prevented the iPod from sliding around.
