4 new cup shocks, 4 new Cooksport springs and 1 polybushed dog bone mount done today. :smile:

Thanks pal. Was thinking of a dog bone bush also.... Let us know re the rear tops also..

I'm shortly fitting new front shocks and springs all round to the 182 and have a bit of money left in the kitty. Which polybushes would make the most difference to the feel of the car given a budget of about 50-75quid...(or which ones would you start with replacing in other words) Thanks folks.

Finally got round to sorting my non-working washers. Wipers off, scuttle off, linkage off, bottle out, cylinder found, rubber trimmed and reverse. Job done, now all working :-)

@mayur_my. Optical is correct, it can be tight and maybe worth assembling prior to fitting. Ignore the silicon pipe in the pic but the swaged ends of yours are like this?

external pipe diameter of 70mm with swaged ends is the correct fit chap. You may need to smear the filter neck with a dab of vaseline first if its dead tight though but it'll go in - assuming you've got the correct filter size. The jubilee then tightens up behind the swage.

4 wheel alignment post spacer fitting.

Fitted today...much much better.

Fitted mine today and well pleased. Ash made me up a silicon pipe with alloy swaged inserts with 70mm external diameters for each end. It made fitting dead easy as both ends (engine and filter end) can be adjusted for length. This was about 16 quid. I also went with the smaller offset Ram Air...

Spacers fitted front and rear, Fattys induction kit fitted today also. :)

- erm, make that 13cm lol.

fitted some 13 inch front speakers to replace standard crap ones. Cheap Kenwoods off Ebay and a quick fix.

Found some 13cm Kenwood speakers in the garage that look to be a straight swap for the crappy oem front door speakers. Couldn't fit them though as have zero crimping connectors in the house. Once I've got them fitted it should be a quick fix prior to better cabling etc etc

Yeah it works well - mine came up a treat but needed a couple goes on each headlight . Easy to follow instructions and now 10 x better than before. Shame the insides of the lenses aren't great otherwise would be perfect.

Just ordered some 40mm bolts.....job done, appreciate your advice fellas
