finished rewiring the engine side of the front loom and added a couple of
extra wires, for tacho and electric fan.
also received my new number plates this morning fast delivery, used a
bit of velcro to just see what the rear one looked like.

Hmmmm I think the air bubbles have ruined the whole of the Mini Freddy...... I think you should do it again now to reclaim yourself lol :)

The numberplates look tasty, may have to get some myself :P

It looks so mean from the rear; wide and low, its perfection (apart from the bubbles ofcourse lol)

You gotta expect things like that with an otherwise PERFECT car, goes with the teritory, one imperfection shows up allot.

I wont hold it against you, i dont think ive seen a mini rear window tinted, that didnt have bubbles.

Did you do it in one go, or three? I have been informed you need to do the rear screen in three pieces to do it successfully. Never tried one myself.

you can do it in one piece - heat shrink it to the shape of the glass before final fitting on the inside. >_<

Best way. Mine was done with rear window still in, one peice of tint film, no bubbles. Was done using the above method.

Cant wait to see the overall look of this mini :) Are the wheels staying?? If not, what you going for??
