I also sold the astra gte seats so i have my rear seats back and my garage space used the money to pay my insurance deposit, dunno if i should sell that colway AT tyre it brand new but i might regret it when i buy a full set down the line.

Fitted a remote locking kit for the doors. Nice little kit from RightClick, www.rclick.co.uk. I got the one with flip key
I found a nice place for the main unit right behind the drivers side dash mounted speaker, pretty easy to access just by removing the speaker.
Not too hard to wire up, but a pain to get the new wires for the actuator through to the drivers door...
Anyway, now I can open and close my old Frontera A with the click of a button. Neat

Ripped out the birds nest of the vacuum pipes and solenoids .. very pleased with the results.

Can't do bugger all else with it as the alarm is doing my head in so have fitted my new number plates.

Not much but the tinkering continues.

Cheers

Went to Trago Mills pay and play site today with the family and won't be doing that again in a hurry .
The little one screamed her head off in fear(it was her first time offroading, bless her),the Betterhalf just sat there laughing.
Within the first half hour the distinctive smell of burning clutch filled the truck (I knew i should have replaced it while i had the engine out ),closely followed by the battery light.
Started to limp home and had the temp shoot up into the red as i went up the only steep hill on the journey home
I'm now on the hunt for a radiator,Altenator (unless i can clean it up) and a clutch for Tessie.

Today spence helped me rotate all tyres on both fronties. Lil man was on the whizzer and was a star. We then changed tyre pressures and moved the brake vac resevoir to by the air intake. Now got room to mount the compressor behind the battery.

Fixed it

3rd check of the vacuum pipes yielded a split which, when repaired, solved the problem of it falling into limp home in 3rd, 4th, 5th gear at 3k revs. I'm guessing this might have been something to do with the turbo wastegate or something like that. Actually that's a guess, but it's not doing it now.

In other news, maybe it's already noted somewhere on the forum here, but y'all know that if you break down in a (big national chain) supermarket they have a breakdown service which covers any car in their car park? Just go to customer services, tell them, and a man in a van will come and fix you or tow you to a garage. Tesco has this & so, I believe do the other big ones.

Not today but Yesterday seeing as the weather was good

Cleaned and re-undersealed the underneath of truck and in the wheel archs
Sprayed the most exposed parts with stone chip protection after wiring brushing any tatty bits.


Removed speakers from rear and re-located them into speaker pods just behind the rear seats and added some sound deading to stop vibrations,
Fitted cross overs and Tweeters in to the original speaker location
sounds pretty good,
