Jeez - that must be uncomfortable when it’s reading in the car’s gauge! Bet that never happened in Yorkshire!

lets just say i were not wearing much fitting the harness.

The car looks awesome, good idea relocating the battery too, or was there something in the boot that meant the battery needed to be moved?

people often ask why do i think so highly of these DSN stabilisers. well doing a job like this with one of the Ultimate ones would have been a pain just to get it out of the way.

 

DSN one bolt.

The stabiliser arm is beautiful, the thermostat cover not so much on a retro look car - but practical as you say.
