Im aiming for malvern but not sure if i'll make it, certainly wont be running the 10x6 cosmics that are destined for it :P

Wiring hasnt been touched as he's still dealing with the fallout of moving house.

Yeah Phils mini is dead as a dodo at the mo, has some ignition fault. Wheels are rather tasty. He's taking it off the road soon for some work, including a full tan/black interior 8)

Wirings done, seventeen million hours later. Relays and fuses aplenty, all run internally. Now running :proud:

Also plumbed in the metro rad and electric fan, although the first one was leaking so I had to source another.

Also picked these beasties up

Oh yesh :)

What type of spotlights are they? I want some the same for my Clubman.

Love the cosmics, glad you didn't go with the green/white pastel colour scheme, as this looks awesome, nice headlining.

Don't do it. Have a look at my clubman build thread (link in my sig) it will quickly become aparent why it's a bad idea.

The cosmics look really good, I might have to get mine polished up rather than painted :-

This is the problem, they do look good though. I'll just have to rely on the slatted roof rack to look cool then :D
