*update..
Im leaving all the bells n whistles shiny bits until after the MOT; so this weekend was a matter of getting the car to a basic, 'MOT spec.'
Ive booked the car in for MOT this saturday.

Tried to move the exhaust as its rattling on the fuel tank, re-fitted the std. springs and bolted the rear harness points in..

Also finally nailed this interior.. drivers' door card:

Then fitted up the rest of the dash parts, wired the foglamp switch and horn, also bolted up the rest of the harness points...

Ive got to stick a tyre on (bit close to call) and find a window winder clip. Thats it. Will let you know how it gets on. Next update at the weekend.

That interior looks awesome :cool:
It actually makes a mk1 dash look acceptable

*Update..
MOT day..... : FAIL! :-(

The flexi's we had no idea really,.. never faffed with goodridge stuff before.. after collecting the car we had a few more stabs at it..

But to no avail .. ended up catching nearside flexi with the wheel at full lock and splitting it :-) niiice...
So we're going to bag some new O.E rubber ones for now; at least we know how to fit them.. Be tuesday now.
The headlamp thing shouldnt be a problem; can sort that..
But the shocker was the front coilovers - i mean theyre not new, came with car etc but just never saw it coming.. If it leaks it must be slight. We had a word with the place and hopefully on the retest they'll let them through for me.. ill then after PV get them refurbed..? (rally bilstein coilover jobbies; worth it??)
If the garage say no to any leaniency, then i might have to shod it with any old pair of non-leaky shockers.. where do i stand with eccentric top mounts tho??
Its alright, all in just a bearing advisory that was all. They liked the paint n dash etc.. enjoyed driving to and from lol.. forgot about the baby XE roar when induction kitted up.. lol
Like a teenager again, i was..
More in the week -hopefully a green VOSA paper , not RED. :)

Where are the dampers leaking from? 1st pic looks like a split cv boot too?
Hmm, your goodridges seem to have just twisted when fitting them.Tried undoing them at the caliper and seeing if you can turn them straight?
EDIT- can see the other pic now, that n/s hose looks fine like that.Any pics of how they were sitting before?
