Your making good progress Wayne. The car looks great.

Out of interest were the floor mats from Obsolete Rubber mats? I'm interested to know if these mats are different in pattern between FB EK (front & rear Floors) as I believe the original weren't the same.

Cheers

Small problem, I gave him the FB manual so he had the electrical diagram to work off but forgot I have electric wipers
so tomorrow I have to take my EK one to him...bugger :lol:
