No idea some people have worked it out on here but I didn't lol ..Looking good Carl.
How much weight did you save by removing seats and putting in 2 buckets? Any idea?

looks great Carl..i particularly like the photo with the Javelin stickers...i always wondered what to do with mine??well guess what?ended up in a bin..
Ben,there is a thread or threads about removing the rear seats etc but really cant remember either..i believe the rear bench is about 20kgs

not quite lol dad wants a bigger place so i don't use so much of his drive modding lol right so the decision is made i am keeping the federals on and getting a set of Rainsport 3s Ive had these on a previous motor and loved them so for now ill have my Federals as summer / track wheels and the uniroyals as winter/ wet wheels ive also noticed ive almost run out of passenger side rear wheel so will get some new federals for next season to.
Right got the wheel on and not overly happy with it.. I think a retrim might be in order. 
It will stay for the meantime untill I do get one re trimmed and I will get a horn for it to.

I don't know what it is I am going to see if I can get used to the visual look of the plastic behind lol

That’s what it is Carl. The wheel looks great but not with a huge chunk of Dieppe’s finest plastic on show!
yeah i might get my one sent of to Royal and get it nice and fancy to finish it off i was thinking blue 12oclock strip silver stitching alcantara sides and leather top and bottom
or do i go full alcantara with the blue strip ??
Alcantara all the way mate, the leather is pointless in my opinion. I'd recommend the dark grey as it matches the interior really well:
Sounds good I will run it untill I get some more money then see if it grows on me lol..

I'm sticking with it for a little while to see if I change my mind whalst it's on also looking into getting the cc buttons back I realise if I get a full kit ready for a 197/200 and am not 100% I can sell the whole kit.
Not a massive update but one that now annoys every one I see because I keep using it I have managed to now fit my horn after a couple of weeks.. Honk Honk. 
Also will be getting my new winter/wet tyres I'm getting uniroyal rainsport 3s which I had on my old one and loved then this means I'll be putting my Federals on my Speedlines ready for next year..
