Scratch that, now I've got rid of my PB links, refreshed the page, et viola the message has gone. Goodbye and good riddance :witch:

To be honest not a lot, had some personal stuff to deal with and so I've not really had the enthusiasm to really push on, add that to the desire and just get out on the stages meant I went out and...

Ah I plead guilty as charged, though you omitted my blagging of 8vCraig's cut-n-shut job to move the handbrake back, trully I have no shame :thumb:



Actually I've blanked off the centre vents,...

Darn it I shold have patented it....:)

My blagging of other peoples good ideas continues, this time concerning the heater. Though I intend to fit a heated screen, it is usually nice to have...

Thanks mate, I'm quite happy with it and it really hasn't cost me much to sort it out. Its not overly pretty, especially with that big orange timer relay standing out like a sore thumb, but hey its a...

Right then another bit of an update, this time I have an excuse for slacking as I've been to watch the Spanish round of the World Rally Championship, one event I can high recommend for any rally fan....

Many thanks for the compliment, I'm working at function over form really, but if the function looks good I'll take that as a bonus :thumb:.
