Nice one Mike,
Dash wiring is looking a lot tidier.
Cage looks cool :)

Good to see you finally got that old steering off lol
What rear lights did you have fitted before?
Clears?

Are you selling the clears or keeping them?

The cage needs painting red to match the rear brace.
Or white in a white nova looks good.

I take it that where it is bolted down you have some reinforcing plates underneath? Stitch welding them to the body might add just a little more strength.

the cage came with reinforcing plate mikey, and they will be fitted, the cage isn't bolted in as yet, it needs to come out and get painted.
