That looks real nice, but also like a heck of a lot of work to cut the letters out. Will you use a Dremel?

Going to plummet for non cambus for the cockpit interior and boot / trunk interior. but add a number of additional curtesy lights just to enhance them and improve visibility.

Need to get rid of the noisy crank pully too its at that age where it really needs changing out.

Did you need to instal any load resistors when you did your upgrades?

Hi Sorn

Believe it or not, all I've done so far is install a neon bar around the centre console and footwell's, so not needed to bother with any resistors or load worries at this point. As my car is the basic sport model I don't even think I've any fancy technology in the car that will flag up a warning light because the bulbs are changed so going to just run with a bulk Ebay buy of canbus replacement bulbs and see how that goes. The interior console is looking quite impressive though, Ive tried to keep it subtle but pimpish at the same time.
I've also had to wait till the monsoon stopped from last year as I don't have a garage where I live now and had to find a bulkhead leak, that I think I've fixed. but ill happily update when I get round to doing it.
