Not been too rushed about things this weekend, thought'd I'd get round to putting the remander of the dash back in place to smarten things up a little.

Made a start on replacing the sunroof with some ali sheet, a) to make the car lighter and b)to stop me being showered in glass should I manaeg to send it on it's roof.

removed the old sunroof leaving a nice big vent

Offered the trimmed sheet up, needs a little finishing and then time ot get the 3mm drill bit out and pop rivet the mofo in with some mastic to seal it on.
