NES

Good old days would say get onto BSQN Barracks and they will send someone around to sort it, including sorting out the damage to your car.

Oh how things have changed  Angry Angry Embarrassed

Hope it gets better from here on

Very poor all round. It looks like the ceiling paint was holding it up! Hope Defence Housing reconsiders when the light obviously needs to be fitted properly.

Nothing really much new to report after moving interstate. Wired in the radiator thermos so the fuse is now in the fuse box with the rest of them - that's the pink one  randomly there 

Also wanted to copy JB and his cool radiator washer bottle thingy but am using this little one litre beauty. Getting a second one to mount on the tier lower for windscreen washer.

Hey NES on a serious note mate I was going through things with my engineer just before I was going to get my sedan registered and he asked me what seat belts I had, I told him I had inertia in the front and lap sash in the back and he said sorry but you have to have Inertia in the back outsides.

I bought some from the guys in Ballarat (can't remember their name at the moment) I don't like the way the reels sit but I wasn't going to start cutting at the car when it was finished either, all I can say is it got me approved and registered but I know it sucks when you think you are ok and then have to backtrack again.

Keep pushing on.

Regards

Thanks Neil. In hindsight I wish I shelled out from the start instead of sending them back again for an extra $700 😱.
Yep need inertia on all seats with a door. I wish I went the reel in the centre now too. I mounted them under the shelf as I have the Venetian on the back window restricting shelf space. I like doing a good job but I really impressed myself with this one. Operates very smoothly

Photos to follow?
Have yet to take this step.
Seems straight forward enough but I've seen a few that just don't look right.

Yeah DJ had em done through Alex at http://seatbeltsolutions.com.au/ and he talked me though it. He has a write up that was in street machine magazine
http://seatbeltsolutions.com.au/wp-content/themes/seatbelt/images/pdf/Street%20Machine%20Write-Up%20(3).pdf
That I followed and made it real simple.
Worked like a dream
