    Project Clio Rally 16v (56K go make some babbies)

    as the day started i decided i had enough of all the plastic in the car, i got on the phone to get some back up, mainly mr lawrence, so then armed with a manly a T15 and driver, i attacked the inside of the clio



    next was the dash, a little harder then the door trims



    After fighting for awhile decide the steering wheel had to come off, unable to find a T40, decide to take it off the boss instead



    and it came off :D

    next days efforts where to snip the loom a bit



    saving abit more weight lol



    the seats had to leave the motor, in order to remove the carpet !!



    back of the car bring filled with the bits i don't want lol


    the next days job was to start on the loom in side, after not working on the "beast" for a day now, i had to kick Mr Lawrence up the ass, to get the work done



    so after looking at the mess, we had left, i decide a brew was in order, while we made are plan of attack!!!

    me being me i decided to go with the easy job first, mounting the fusebox.



    and the sticker to know what is what, after removing the fusebox cover



    next job was to mount/relocate the switches i would need for it to pass an MOT, altho it still has 6 months left, best start planing :D

    So we made this in genus design...



    next on the list was the clocks, both me and Mr Lawrence, spent about 10 minutes flaffing around trying to look for the Axesaw, i missed placed , still not turned up, so i went in the the garage and got a bigger one, for Mr Lawrence to axe the orginal mounting bracket for the clocks.



    so to sum up,



    we now have this as the interior of my car

    oh and the central locking thingy as also been relocated by Mr Lawrence



    Coming along nicey now, starting to look like a car again
