Isn't it funny how sometimes the littlest of things can put a big smile on your face! :mrgreen:

And there's not enough light to take a good pic of my nice courtesy light cover :D

Big thumbs up to Gareth (Jazprom) for my new hinges-included glovebox and other goodies :D 8)

It's nice to put things like that right, particularly the glovebox :) The centre section of my door lock (the bit where the key goes in) has been missing for ages, or at the very least it's there and doesn't return to the correct place. I've been meaning to put it right, but I've never found the time!
Hey, I can do better than that for you, Have a Rank !!!

And possibly my biggest bug bear to date:

:D :D :D

Wasn't without its headaches though - I wanted two screws from the 'interim' bootlid's spoiler but they were all too corroded, then I sheared one on the four spoiler bolts that go down through the bootlid so had to get the old boot spoiler mount off. Drilled the screws, but slipped and fubarred the mount (and broke the drill bit) :( . Eventually got the mount off, and got the plate out of it with the two bolts attached. Went to clean it up and snapped the mainscrew on my vice :evil: . Shagged a corroded screw head on the good spoiler mount, so had to drill that (carefully) - got about halfway and my wife suggested tapping a torx into the drilled hole, which I tried, and it came out like it wanted to all along :) I love my wife for that suggestion as by this point I was close to exploding!

I've replaced all the interior boot carpet and the TT plastic trim sections. Now I just have the both window switches to replace (new ones here) and the roof lining to replace as mine's marked. Might change the mirrors, but will obviously do that at the same time as having the door cards off for the window switches.

Oh and I have a small front bumper repair to do as some scrote has chipped it in my works car park :cry:

Onwards and upwards.
