skippyboyo1 Posted September 11, 2011 Author Share Posted September 11, 2011 Right then ive had the rear windows tinted today,gone for limo black however it was a total nightmare for the guy doing it due to the interior just being done in flock it took him 3 attempts as the flock fibre kept getting on the tint he wasnt happy however i am. Im looking foward to the wheels and coilovers going on next week as ive developed a hatred for the wheels i have on now as they just dont look right. Ok so windows before................................................ <!--url{0}--> <!--url{1}-->[/img]</p><p> </p><p> <img src= upload png[/img] <!--url{4}--> <!--url{5}-->[/img]</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <img src= upload images[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skippyboyo1 Posted September 11, 2011 Author Share Posted September 11, 2011 (edited) Something else ive looked at today is the top right hand display which shows the ABS light,oil pressure etc. i thought id put this on as it might come in helpful. Since i put the new dash in it has been temperamental sometimes working fine and then not at all so the idea was to get a replacement however after some research i found that they suffer from dry solder and after some investigation i found this was the problem. <!--url{0}--> <!--url{1}-->[/img]</p><p> </p><p> you can see in the next pic on the bottom left of the unit there are 5 solder clusters then a screw and then 5 more clusters of solder these were the ones that had cracked.</p><p> </p><p> <img src= hosting images[/img] re soldered And fixed.................... <a href=http://s3.postimage.org/5s8dfe1ok/solder1.jpg' alt='solder1.jpg'> image hosting[/img] Edited June 12, 2012 by skippyboyo1 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skippyboyo1 Posted September 18, 2011 Author Share Posted September 18, 2011 So spent all day in the rain on saturday (well showers) with my mate from Toyota fitting the coilovers,droplinks and my new wheels. The droplinks were as we expected a total pig so out came the blow torch. the wood at the front was to make sure the jack would clear. <!--url{0}--> <!--url{1}-->[/img]</p><p> <img src= upload images[/img] <!--url{4}--> <!--url{5}-->[/img]</p><p> <img src= image host[/img] <!--url{8}--> <!--url{5}-->[/img]</p><p> <img src= image upload[/img] <!--url{12}--> <!--url{3}-->[/img]</p><p> <img src= upload images[/img] <a href=http://s4.postimage.org/qyhh3knq4/sus8.jpg' alt='sus8.jpg'> free image hosting[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
