What did you and your MK2 do today?

[jake]

I dint know lol. There's a thread in here showing how to fit them. Perhaps post a link in it for future modders

There's a guy on Instagram that sells the bonnet lifter kits and are all simple bolt on units.

Link?

Fitted a dash cam, been meaning to do it for a while.

I installed an ignition switched 5v supply in the fuse box, ran the cable up behind the A pillar trim, out the top and mounted one of these at the top of the screen on the drivers side,

I would've liked it behind the rear view mirror but the wipers don't clear the screen so it wouldn't be as effective.

Good review here

That camera looks really good, wanting 1 for some track days

A bit premature but found some time today so I prepped the car for winter.

- Full deep wash and cleanse
- intense SRP session working out quite a few surface scratches and blemishes,
- 2 layers of FinishKare 1000P sealant/wax ontop of the SRP.
- windows dressed with TW Ice rain repellant

It was a bit mucky...can you tell where I hadn't washed yet?

Now gleaming again

I don't know about your mk2 but the mk1 leon se even handles well on track. A bit rolly but with the right tyres it just keeps gripping. Did you get any balls or feathering on the tyre shoulders?

Did a bit of plastic welding...rather pleased with the result and probably stronger than the original plastic now that its reinforced with wire mesh! These original FL bixenons will be on ebay before I know it!

Where do you get the repair tabs from and how much do they cost if you don't mind me asking?

The top connector of mine is damaged and it doesn't sit quite right anymore

Seat sell them as a kit as they are known for breaking....about £8 from memory. If you do a search I posted some pictures a few months ago on how they fit to the headlight.

You use a flat tipped soldering iron, some fine metal mesh, and some matching plastic to act as the weld. You basically put small sections of the mesh spanning the crack, heat it up so it melts into the plastic and then top up with the new matching plastic. You need a steady hand too otherwise your make a right mess of it!
