The stance looks excellent, and it will drop some more because the Eibachs are cold rolled.... What were the down lighters like to fit?

Downlighters easy I needed to trim the recess with a knife but they are plug and play but springs harder than I thought , lining the rear hub back up was awkward

Your too young..... KIT was the car from Knight rider series. A Saturday night willy moment for us young kiddies.

I'm an 80s kid, of course I remember Knight Rider, I was obsessed with it. I had the RC KITT car and I think I had the watch too.

Its nothing as dramatic as that lets be honest here , they are like the Audi ones , but the main reason I fitted them was they are black rather than clear , also got a set for my Octavia as a kid driving too fast on a country road about three years ago clouted the mirror and cracked the lens and its started to let in water and turn green, its cheaper to buy a pair of these than one Skoda one !

Couple of little jobs 

The car went for its BMW service and mot last week (Its on a service plan paid for by previous owner so only had to fork out for mot) , it had pollen filter, air filter, spark plugs and oil and filter (Wouldnt have liked to pay for that lot) 

The car had a factory fit phone kit , the type that clips your phone in , I was never going to use that as it wasnt for my phone and took up a lot of space in the centre console , so removed it all (First couple are library pics and not mine hence LHD)
