The set were only $200,
They have window wonder holes which suits me as i don't have power windows and wouldn't date punch holes in a sat myself.
The whether strips need replacing and i haves good set ready to go on.
They also have 6"speaker holes. I have a set of grey door pockets i could get spare carpet from I'll put some speaker grills over the holes.
They will do until i have more cash for power windows and a good set

CAS is not responsible for pulse at injectors. CAS is responsible for Spark as its electric Ignition

ok, time for a bit of an update.
it starts but is a bit rough. only 4 or 5 cylinders are firing. and i'm suspecting its the injector after putting in new plugs, leads and dizzy cap. it has spark and injector pulse, but no bang...
I picked up 4 walky door trims cheap. they were cheap because they all had winder holes punched in them and 6" speaker holes.
I dont care thatthey have holes for window windows because I dont have power windows. and If i get poer windows later, then i'll get some better trims.
I have some carpet from some spare door pockets, its not identical to the the carpet on the bottom part of the door but is very close. so I'm going to fill the holes int he trimms with that carpet.
the weather strips were also stuffed but I have some in really good condition from my cars original trims. I've already fixed the weather strips on the back doors and just have to do the fronts now.
I still have not done anything with the top part of the back seat. I am thinking that I should make a seat coer out of the material off the vr clubsport rear seat and fit it over the top of the original vl rear seat. this way the foam fits and no new brackets are needed. does anyone know if this is a good idea?

looking good mate,
not sure if the seat idea will work though it sounds good, give it ago.
do you have the chrome roof gutter molds? if so how did you secure them to the walky side part properly mine just sit against it i wanna try fiberglass it in or something.
and i'm really starting to like them wheels, may have to buy some.

I painted the chrome trims and have put one back on.
there is a small gap but i wont bother putting more effort into changing it
I picked up a compressor on special from super cheap, it was $200 with hose and 3 guns.
i spent $800 (think) on paint, primer, thinnners, clear, tack cloths, and greese and wax remover.
then a little more on masks, sand paper and masking tape.
