I'm going to get 1293 turbo inside and stick them on the front doors at the front under the wing mirror.

I think yours would look good in the rear quarter windows.

Hmmm...I supose they would, anyway, I've got loads of stickers to mess about with and see where I want them .

Not much of an update today, just started to fit a bit of the sound proofing:





Seems to be good stuff, basically just starting on putting bits back on now, no point doing anything to the engine now, been as its going to be replaced . Booked Friday off work, so will hopefully do quite a bit then , but will see. Also hoping to de-bumper the front pretty soon .

Little more work done today, not much though as I got home from work late , but got tomorrow off, so will get some more done . Well, todays I mounted the internal boot release handle:





I'll paint over the bolts with some black spray paint, but I'm pretty happy with it as its nicely hidden, but not to far out of reach . So...tomorrow, I will take the seats out again, modify the subframes, probably put some more sound proofing down, and get the washer bottle hose routed to the boot, and then its mine and James birthday on Saturday , so will see what I get.

Nice one!

Let me know how that washer bottle goes, I'm thinking of mounting mine either in the boot or in one of the rear bins.. not sure how the pump will cope with the extra distance though.

Thanks, will do, I might have a look and see which pump James has in is, as his is in the boot too .

[Saxo-Fiesta-Mini]

same pump will be fine just need to make sure its full lol as will need to fill the hose with water but once that is be same response as being up front

mines going on the inner wheel arch when i do the flip front

[1275 SPRITE]

Fit a one way valve near the washer jets, and it will keep the water from running back into the bottle, therefore the pump is doing exactly the same work as if it was mounted under the bonnet. Mine works fine.
