There is no 1 plug type... you must have the wrong dizzy somehow
Went for a drive with @Fujiwara-Ben
Also stopped for a pee and to say goodbye to Ben, and while peeing I spotted something that made me excited..... But it didn't pay off
Wrecked front bumper on the side of the road, although it only had half of the splitter left

I have one. They may have been put on the imports and Automatics. Here is the picture of it on my car. http://www.micra.org.uk/attachments/dsc00603-jpg.24091/
Do you think it will work the conversion?

Thanks - a bit out of budget at the moment.
started the sub box / fake floor in the back, first problem is crappy sub and amp, need to cut a gurt hole in the back of the new box so the amp can sit in it properly
I could get them and hold them for you?? postage would be a bit steep though.
Found a spare hour today, so made my template for future designs and drilling base. Used 3mm polycarbonate board.
Have cut out the mileometer and one of the warning light holes - just practising at the moment. I'll get there in the end.
Need to make a second template to clamp the coloured section between for cutting and drilling.

If you're lowered without an adjustable panhard rod it throws the rear axle to one side.
Messes up 4 wheel alignment
does it effect the alignment at 40mm drop though? I thought it was mainly for massive drops.Damn

Any drop will shift the axle.

Pushes the back axle out to the right (you might not notice it when you're looking from outside the car as it not all compressed)...put something heavy in the boot and measure it?

No. Not til it's finished. Will have to wait til a more permanent solution to drivers side mount has been done, it's a temporary measure atm.

did you compare any measurements andy ?
Doesn't it just! Mine's gone down just 100mm, hardly lowered at all really and the axle has shifted over plenty. I plan to make my own adjustable one having bought some bits to do that today. When I lowered it a few weeks back I soaked the rod nuts ready for removal. You never know, they might come off easily!
Research and development stage LOL long way to go yet bud. Just something for me to do, wish I had more time ... dog walking is first for me. Lurve my dogsHope you make this work davy, if you do youll get a fair bit of business from people, myself included
Don't see why not magpie - I'll see what I can find. Long way to go yet bud. May be able to get hold of a proper piece of veneer, problem seems to be the gap between the needles and the face - not a lot of room. If not, cabinet veneer will probably be just as good - I'll have a sniff.
davyboy do you have a picture of any you have already done ?
Is it weird that I want to eat that filter?
I already edited that post once!
Sounded like I had a tin of man lacquer, for lacquering my man LOL

Only just playing with ideas at the moment bud, very early days before they may look right. Don't really have a lot of free time, but I'll do what I can as fast as I can. Found a laser cutting company today - maybe useful... I'll pay them a visit.
Here's some I'm thinking of. @magpie that's as near to teak as I can find at the moment, its one shade to dark - but close ?
