Little more work done today, not much though as I got home from work late :dozing: , but got tomorrow off, so will get some more done :D . 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 :mrcool: . 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 :lol: , so will see what I get.


Is that the Micra release, looks good..

Yer it is :dozing: , it does the job. I was going to make a proper bracket for it to go on, but the bolts washers, and nuts work just as well :D .

I'm not that far with it yet :D , I still need to get a new boot...well I suppose I could try and get it linked up to the present one. Atleast then it I mess the one I have on now up, it won't matter because I will be getting another :dozing: .

And Yesterday I got a lot done, first I started off by getting the seats out, and cutting down the subframes, so they would fit better:

Three became...:

Just waiting on a bracket from Mini Spares then I can wire and link everything up :D . The I started to put a bit more sound proofing down:

A bit on the rear seat, and:

A bit under the rear seat. I have decided not to have any rear seats now, and have a rear roll cage for show :thumbsup: . And won't be doing anything today as its my birthday :thumbsup: .

More going to be done tomorrow :wub: .
