made a panel to replace the rear window in my s3 hopefully it will stop some of the rain blowing down my neck but i doubt she will ever be wind and water tight
 
finally go around to fitting a thermal fan to replace the viscous fan on my 200tdi conversion,I found a large fan on a fiat scudo van in a local breakers and managed to fit it inside the original disco rad fan housing and I think it looks quite tidy so just got to fit temp switch and its all done.
