Dash out, gear box exposed, phone kit in pieces, bits hanging off everywhere, wipers out for alarm siren, back speakers out, boot open, bonnet open ... ahhh, so beautiful. Tint looks good, motor/exhaust sounds quiet, still on track for Thurs morning pickup ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that all just for the fitting of a mobile H/F kit? The car will have a rattly dash before you have even driven it out of the dealership.........

Thanks mate, appreciate the comments. I really like the colour at night ... simply stunning, mind you, I won't be leaving it anywhere at night, especially on the Campbelltown streets! Going down to the dealer again Tomorrow (make that today) to give them the benefit of my years of experience in new car pre-delivery. They'd better have beads of sweat running down their foreheads! No time for smoko, you bastards ... just get that car ready!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
