TubbyTwo Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 My mrs would skin me if she found an exhaust in her kitchen lol. She hit the roof when she came home to find the front a rear seats, carpet and boot carpet all laid out on the lounge floor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPG Posted September 20, 2012 Author Share Posted September 20, 2012 Right so i decide to go and fit the Exhaust and it starts raining heavy, so i persist and now i find the bolts holding the second Cat to the back-box section have been rounded off , gonna go back out and use a special tool (smacking on a cheap socket till its nice and tight) and hopefully that should allow me to remove them. Wish me luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPG Posted September 24, 2012 Author Share Posted September 24, 2012 So im back from my short trip away, and today i have managed to do a few small but satisfying changes to the interior. This was an old TV bracket which was left on. I managed to do a little hunting in the car and found this under the seat also: Guessing these were from the old system but not removed. Exhaust pics and sound clip will follow shortly, apologies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPG Posted September 30, 2012 Author Share Posted September 30, 2012 (edited) Had a little time this evening so decided to remove the TV Antena's on the rear hatch. They were pretty easy to remove after the hairdryer was applied to soften the glue Edited September 30, 2012 by SPG (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
