                  Cheers HaydEn and George, the seats were fun to fit, the fronts are on the original chassis runners at the back though narrowed down on the inside mount by around 30mm. The front mounts are mk4 welded into position. The rear seats use the mk1 frame with the foam and fabric wrapped and fitted. Yeah the cable shift is fantastic and with it running internally i had more room for custom extractors aswell.

                      I caught up with Marty at Christmas and the car has had a rough tune and is drivable and is waiting on a final dyno tune; I'll have to check where things are at. If it's not on the road yet then it shouldn't be long before it is.
