Got my oldskool golf ball gear knob on now, does feel a little odd in the hand, i guess i'm just not used to having a small knob in my hand  :confused:

Also fitted LED front indicators and have my armrest to put in this weekend.  

Have booked it in with AMD for the remap!!!   I must stop spending now  :evilgrin:

Sorry to hijack your thread. I'm having the same issue with the vibration at idle and the wobble at 1k revs. You haven't discovered what it is by any chance. Love the car by the way, really transformed since you first had it. Great colour, but I would say that :)

Some new pics, this time clean but still no Sun!!





Got my armrest installed too, not very hard, just a little time consuming.

Now, any ideas where the best place to get a power cable from the battery into the cabin?

Not really, maybe a wurring noise when I was crusing on the Mway and AMD said the turbo was a little noisey.  It went into limp mode first but I guess they pushed it till it popped.  I have heard its quite common, might be worth taking out a tesco warranty or similar, £300 warranty would be better than a £1500 bill!!

AMD phoned me today, said the turbo was done and the remap was done but a white van smashed the mirror and drove off when they were test driving it so now AMD will be fitting a new mirror case and glass.  I'm must be jinxed or the car is!! :rolleye:
