So that service went well.
I drove to work and parked up. Came back 30 minutes later to a completely flat tyre. Jacked it up and there was a stone lodged in the tyre. Brilliant. Took 20 minutes to get the spare out as I didnt have the peugeot wheel brace you need to drop the spare wheel carrier. It then dropped down onto my hand and crushed it. Fitted the spare... and the bolts were too long so the wheel wobbled. Borrowed the work truck for the night and brought a spare cyclone to work and fitted it. Picking the repaired tyre up from the garage tomorrow morning and its cost £18 to get it bunged and balanced. Still cheaper than a new tyre but what a pain!
Anyway. Trying to ramp up progress before I bin all of my spare parts, move to London and more importantly go to the might car mods meet!
So the first thing was to fix the windscreen seal that has bee plaguing me for more than 6 months now!

and then I finally decided to fit my reversing camera. Didnt take half as long as I thought!

It works so now ive just got to tidy all the wires away and get a reversing live to the headunit tso it automatically comes on when i reverse. Nice!
Also because of the MCM meet my bucket seats should be going back in. And this time they will be properly bolted in and too high!
