    Re: Megane Coupe 225 Conversion

    This is how the car looked when I rolled it out yesterday morning.



    Right I'll start with the sunroof.



    You can see the two brackets here that were riveted into place.







    Then I added another two either side.



    The took my perspex that I 'd spent what felt like years shaping! and tried it for size.





    Then I sealed it into place, and thats where it all went tits up for a bit with the sikaflex.

    Anyway I sorted that out the next morning by sanding down the excess.



    If i were to do it again I'd not be a nob and forget to mask up and seal it tkaing my time. But anyway its in now and it does its job it keeps the water out.

    I'm just going to spray it Matt black or possible spray the roof matt black and the sunrrof gloss.

    Next up was dashboard and carpet.



    Engine bay shot.



    Started on some of the interior wiring, I've got the passenger door popper working from the wing mirror and from the button on the centr part of the dash.



    Then just a couple more shots of other stuff that got done.







    One just before it was rolled back in.



    Then one with all the **** piled in front of it!



    I've brought the ECU home so I can check that the next cable i get works properly, with a bench test.

    I've probably done loads more but forgotten and I'm knackered!!

    Oh here's one more.



    I'll probably remember more as the week continues!

    Cheers guys for the comments btw.

    Looking good Gaz, that pic with all the crap in front of it just reminds me of what I'm faced with everytime I open the garage to work on my clio I really need to get it finished.

    I know what you mean it takes about 30 minutes just to get everything out of the way!

    I pm'd Gaz about this recently and he said the location of reverse is different, sure it was up and far left with the 225 and right and down on the laguna.

    Yeah as Speedy said the reverse was the wrong way round.

    No updates on it at the moment haven't touched it since the last update, really need to pull my finger out tbh
