UPDATE
the other day i recieved my new masked crystals in the post from JimJam and so when lee has kindly made me my connectors im going to fit them meaning my angels will be up for sale:)
From the mystery box that i bought of Jared there was a GTI Gearknob in the box and so i rubbed it all back, cleaned out the numbers and sprayed the ball black and left the top part silver, i did an alright job but im thinking of redoing it, quite impressed with my masking skills though!
my washer jets had all blocked up and im not suprised after being almost 11 years old and so i went to peugeot and bought some new ones, not bad for £7 brand new for 2!! so cleaned all my pipework out and then fitted them, much better!!
whilst i was at peugeot i popped into halfords and bought all of their 284 sized bulbs and took my dials out and replaced them because a few had blown, made such a difference and also you can see that i put a GTI indicator stalk in so my angels dipped and main work together properly!:D
TODAY
The s**t hit the fan today. i went to my mate in works house so he could do my new back box for me as i thought i just had a loose baffle and when he took it off i found this!
2 massive blow holes i couldnt believe what a crap design they were!
At the same time i said my brakes had been dodgy for a while there was a bout 3-4 inches of travel before i got a braking response and then he looked the bleeding nipples on the back and front and realised the fluid had never been bled before. We made a start and alot of hydraulic air had built up over the years until we got the passenger side nipple and then nothing but air came out and then one pump on the pedal and a weird noise happened and now i havent got any compression on my brake pedal atall, got towed home and me thinks the master cylinder seals have gone! great just what i need!
i've read somewhere about this being a comman problems for peugeots, could anyone shed any light on this?
i have a couple bits to put in the car soon but ill keep you updated soon!
Thanks for reading

UPDATE
I'm currently waiting for a new gear knob to arrive as mine is starting to look tack! Haha
I've got my brakes sorted now..thank god!!
Gave her a wash at the weekend and a quick wax with AG aqua wax:) but before that I tried on the sp arches, I know they're the wrong colour but give them a test run:)
I've sprayed my centre console with iPod dock that was gloss black, platinum silver makes it same as the car:)
Jimjams masked headlight arrived a while back and so tonight i decided to fit them as I got my connectors from lee yesterday! Pain in the ass to fit and a lot of swear words later here they are!
Completely changed the look!
Thanks for looking:)
