On the Red mini - rerouted all the heater hoses to tidy it up, rewired the engine bay and tidied the loom and cables up, made and fitted a rudeamentary immobiliser and made a boot liner kit from diagrams and fitted it.

On the White one - swapped the red fog lamp for a frosted clear lamp with ultra bright red LED bulb then stroked her for a bit

Painted the boot floor with hammerite. Fitted new wiper arms and blades from Minispares, replacing the cheap 'uns it came with. They are now quiet, and clear the screen!! Washed and dried Mavis. Discovered the floor of the battery box was rusty beneath the underseal. :-(

I replaced the OSR wheel bearing as I thought it was rumbling. I still have a rumble...

Came off suprisingly easy though considering it was the original ball bearing type.

Finally put my steering wheel on straight, only three months after fitting it! Also secured the switch panel back in place as it came out the other morning when i pulled the choke out. Just a nut that had fallen off the back but I had forgotten how
bloody fiddly it is trying to get the nut back on. O_O

Had a go at cleaning my engine bay and sprayed up the front near side hub with 'dub D 40', ready for removal at the weekend! :D
