Default Wifes 2005 G-Spec Oulander Customization

hey guys well ithought seenas im doing a fair amount to her car il update this thread when i do stuff..

first on the list

installation of RES MMCS Unit.
Leather Facelift HOOD
Leather Facelift Glovebox top

RES MMCS unit was supplied with a sunroof model bracket and the availability of the none extinct,i was forced to weld up some tabs.
screen sits bout 25mm further forward wich isnt a bad thing.
and i am performing a total blackout interior(we did it on our VR4 Legnum Wagons and love it..

Totally dismantle the RES Unit completley
Scrub up the plastic and apply plasti pac,then apply black in dust coats..
its a pretty strong bond and no flaking (again done on our Legnums)

the roof lining and A,B,C/D pillars are getting upholstered in new black lining..
add a Euro Feel to the car with the fabric.

Looks good. Mighty nice to be able to fab up your own brackets like that.

just wondering, is it difficult to strip down to the bare metal of the vehicle? I might eventually do this so I can add sound deadening material...

Thanx guys, yea welding is my trade so engineeringis sweet fir me lol..um tbh it is a nightmare to strip down. You'd think you can just remove abcd pillars but noooo. You have to remove front seats, remove lower abcd pillar covers then unbolt uppers then pull off then lower roof lining once removing all bits too, then getting it out without creasing it is tight too, need all the floor space you can get to turn on 45 and out.

Real nightmare
