Few touches to the Red Devil :D

was such a lovely, finally had the time to do some work to the car!

started with the easiest first, put my site stickers on (big thanks to Gamble = legend ) and then hoover the car.
needed to lay down all the cabling for my car pc so go on with that! also amped up my front components, my sound system sounds so much better!
the sub is only temp, until i can afford a decent one, but boy does it boom!

also got a decent pic since my accident, smooooooooooth

just need to sort out the top mesh, but bumpstrips and indicators smoothed in





indicators in fog lights (fogs work too!) is brighter at night



new MG Badge



cleaned and added new steering and for you guys that havent seen it, my massaging chairs and heated seats ( http://www.themgzr.co.uk/vb/showthread.php?t=62311 )




added a new plate holder for the rear cad (as the plate kept comiing off and looked "stuck on")




here was my mad wiring diagram



here is when i started the rewiring (power and ground were split)


here is where i had to mount the amps (had no choice as i have no boot space)



weighs about 30/35kg now! makes the car sit nice and lowwww





The re-wiring was to accomodate my Car pc which is going to be running very soon! here is a preview of how it is going to look














and that concludes my day :strong:

Oh talking of which......

can you update the swear filter? you need to put f***ed in as well as a few others I could opt not to swear......but its not half as much fun......and its all in character with me........I do swear a lot.

Do you guys realise EMS Ltd have now got a swear box down the garage?? I dunno how much I owed in a week but I think its nigh on £80 the b*****ds!
