Special kit & adhesive is required. I have a bald headed friend who's very skilled in the art of dash flocking and has the required kit (maybe he should applie some to his head :P) As far as I'm aware he askes £150 to do the flockings and he's based in Cardiff

Still a little more to go but hoping to have it all out tomorrow night
The other job i'm doing is hiding the cables


Hoping to get that done tomorrow night and give the inside a good clean out ready for some paintings

well after a few busy nights on the car a little more progress

Firstly I got out the last of the sound deadening Then me and a mate got on with hiding the wiring....

From this:



And after a few hours later with a little petrol washing chucked in to finish off the night Me and Steve called it a day:




Looking pretty empty but getting there


Finally after a little thinking and brainstorming with Mason it was decided to (Untill I've got the Money to source the proper parts to do repairs) do a onevia conversion! A few hours later all the parts required in AG2 red Were sorted and being picked up early next week

So I thought i'd start doing a little stripping, in the process finding out the Sideskirts had a nice big Veilside marker on the Inside (which are up for sale, shamless plug )

It's only until I can fund proper repairs, the cost of the onevia is half the price of a pair of lights!! Don't you worry, i'll come back with vengeance lol

ok little update:

not the best pics but i'm sure you'll get the Idea.

last weekend I went around picking up the 200sx frontend, then visited rhys_sx & Mason for a few other bits

Then it was back to the Garage to start sorting the wiring.....

the garage was a bit of a shit tip by this point & I had about 10 people crammed in there too:





Me and JamieK still cracked on and stripped the wiring back to what was needed:


And had a pile of un-needed wires left, which came in handy for extending the moved/ hidden wiring inside the car:


By the end of the night after everbody had gone and close to 2 hours of working through a wiring diagram I was able to make the pop-ups go up........

but not down! I then worked out I also needed the headlight Timer box to make this work so it was a trip back to rhys's to pinch that (an his rear view mirror, cause mine was brown and manky ) That same night I started to wire everthing in and rhys & Woody poped over. Thanks for the hand
By the end of the night the lights were going up and down and i'd tucked all the wires away nicely and run them into the car

After this it was onto fitting the front end. the garage got very full again..........

first was wiring in sidelights and indicators ect. Nice on for the soldering crosshatch

then the front end went on:


Nice colour match just a shame about the state of the bumper but hoping a little wash and polish will hide that....
Maaaahugesive thanks to woodywoodman and the others who got there hand dirty that night

the following night I finished cleaning up the inside:


Then after a lot of masking tape added a little paint. it's not perfect in the back but I'll be re-doing it when the dash comes out for flockings:


went for a little run last night and took a classic petrol station photo ignor the wheels


handfull of other bits to do which i'll post up as and when they get done but for now that's it. I'm back out driving the car and it's fricking great
