All the weight saving has gone completely to pot with these seats haha they weigh a ton (because they're heated) plus the weight of the brackets 4KG.

I'll bosh rear door cards back in when i can be bothered

Does anybody know if Dodo Juice born slippy and Iron X is concentrate or dilute? Had a look on the back but it didn't say :confused:

Also got my steel today and i've done some of the holes.

Chris what did you do about the stump that comes out of the bottom of the chair? Drill a hole for it or cut it off?

Also went to a family friends today and he had this absolutely mint Mk2 and i fell in love with it:love:

Had a little play with the IronX last night and i have 2 wow's;


1st Wow, It f*cking STINKS! Literally smells like a stable!

2nd Wow, It's amazing stuff! Works really quickly and goes bright purple on contact with iron.

Got some pics of it working its magic on my dirty wheels last night.
Before:

After:

It cleaned up crap that i could not get off no matter what i used (obviously not using the right stuff)

Brilliant stuff!

Hopefully the car will be getting detailed tomorrow if the weathers fair!
