So it was noticed by a few members when I joined that the headlights were stained yellow and generally worse for wear. I have
Cougarbrg to thank for selling on his spare headlights which I proceeded to fit yesterday. I haven't been able to get many pics yet due to diminishing light after the fitting and I couldnt be bothered to move the Cougar off the drive today, but they work splendidly and make the car look even more fantastic
Here's how she looked before
Looks surprisingly like a Mazda MX-6 without her lights.
And the new headlights in

After taking weeks to find the time, i finally got my interior pillar trims swapped over for the CF ones i bought from Paul aka oldfordfran. I also found out why my new heated screen was dead on the passenger side. Some numpty forgot to plug the damn thing in on that side after it was fitted I did take a couple of piccies but it was really too dark, so i'll try again tomorrow.

Finally fitted my refurb alloys, had them ages waiting for centre caps to be sorted.
Centre caps have vinyl logos courtesy of Al (Pid_16V).
Cougar logo dustcaps obtained from ebay
Now have an old set of C1 alloys for disposal . . .

Fitted a new water pump and did away with the steel port plate
How many have done this with no ill effects?

Port plate? if you mean the cone then yeah its best gone as they have a nasty habit of coming adrift and eating through the pump housing
You changed your water pump on xmas day?!?!
Put in new head, side and number plate light bulbs - should keep me away from Mr Plod
And changed my pollen filter over - I don't know what the old one had been filtering, but it didn't look like pollen
Found my grill is broken at the O/S headlamp clip and whoever took the scuttle panel off last time put it back on with wood screws
I think she's been through the mill a bit

I'll have a US-spec Cougar head grille available in a couple of weeks. It's the C2 version (lattice effect to match the lower grille) cut down to fit a C1. Drop me a PM if you fancy it.
