Well, I thought a project log would be a good way to keep track of things, so here it is.
This is the car shortly after I became the owner, the previous owner was my mother . This is september 2006:
It had just been shod in Goodyear Eagle F1 rubber in that pic, as the tyres mum had on it were terrible, next on the list of things to sort out was night time visibility, cue a set of spots:
however the mounts that came with these quickly became prone to drooping, adding some grippy rubber didnt help either:
So, with that in mind, I made my own, at the time I made these I was planning on adding another pair of spots, or a pair of fogs, hence them being larger than needed:
All lit up:
Quickly my attention shifted over to braking, so I aquired a set of Cavalier TD calipers, new Ferodo 3466 pads (predecessor to the DS2000/2500 I think), and a pair of ATE 256x20mm discs:
The calipers had to be shaved down to fit under the wheels though.
Moving on, I bought some GTE dials and retrimmed GSI seats:
In order to get the oil pressure indicator working I had to source and fit a 2 pin sender:
