I also fitted the drivers rear seat belt, I noticed there wasn't a hole on the top c-pillar on both sides and never seen them fitted before, no doubt the car didn't have rear seatbelts from the factory, I'll be fitting a brand new looking kit 😁

So yes I need a replacement one.
Today I spend a few hours replacing both connectors to the original wiring pins, including the twin rear fog mod! This is a load off my mind as I've known about it a long time
I even installed the protective plastic tubes that the original wiring had

I managed to fit the rear number plate template, I'm not all that fussed with it but what with the project never having one ever, it will probably just take some getting used to.
I applied some padding behind it around the edges so it's not buffing or contacting the paint work in any way

I managed to get the rear carpet which I recovered from the donor car, cleaned it down and started spraying it with satin black, which has left the material still soft and now matching the front carpet, half way through the can ran empty so had to do a trip to the shops lol

Tonight I had a few friends over modifying the battery cable going along the floor so it is now routed under the passenger seat front mount support and painted the seat runners gloss black because the when the carpet goes in shortly, it would leave the red oxide paint visible! Having the lads around certainly helps take a load off 😉

Next was dealing with the lose handbrake lever, I removed the lever and sound the mount that the pivot pin goes through was worn down, the holes had been squashed moved open that they should be so using a metal block put between the two holes and a numerous whacks with a block hammer, it brought the holes back to there original circumference and the pin now slots in tight, I refitted the lever and it tested perfect with no play
Also spent ages going through my shed to find the handbrake switch, eventually found it and fitted it

It had an old CD in it from possibly a decade ago but still it was so good to hear music coming through the rear speakers 😉
