Looking nice......

Right a few updates,
summer wheels back on
stickers stuck on
sprayed winter wheels matt black
also given the the seat belts a 2nd clean, cleaned and treated the seats, given the T a good snow foam, clay, polish and wax
half way through respraying the wing mirror covers, think ill do the door handles on my nxt week off
The winter tyres i used this year, Pirelli snowcontrol tyres, and i can honestly say they were very good, never got the chance to try them in snow, but i pushed them hard all winter and the grip was amazing, recomended them to anyone

Good progress. Be warned the door handles are a right b! tch to refit. The handle part is fine it's the bit it clips into inside the door. Very tricky and very little space to work inside the door frame. Cost me £40 to get them resprayed
Snappy never responded to my private message or email.
I used a guy called jack at http://royalsteeringwheels.com/

so, just fitted a new fuse box under the bonnet, old one had a broken clip, also been in for a full service, had a dog bone with uprated mounts fitted, and a new clutch cable
and OMG!!!! what a difference a new clutch cable has made, it feels less that half the weight it was before, highly recommended for anyone with a high milage T like mine, or heavy clutch
