Treated my self to a new DAB stereo and spent the afternoon/evening looking like I'd been self harming thanks to threading the DAB antenna and handsfree mic wires under the dash etc

Went billing yesterday got a good few bits and now have a complete nose back on my D1 with noo grill and light surrounds and a noo winch bumper. Got a replacement dash clock and drivers wing mirror as mine wobbles about so I have no idea what's next to me. Noo central locking box and fob so I will hopefully have my remote locking back. So plenty of things to tinker with.

I had a new pressure washer delivered and have spend a happy hour or so hosing the underside of my Defender. It's much better than my old one and has a reel to wind up the pressure hose as well as accessories like an underchassis nozzle and an underchassis lance. So I've got a lot of the congealed oil and road dirt off the underside of the engine and gearbox, which was very satisfying.

Took my Disco1 headlining to be recovered after having both the sunroofs fully and professionally re sealed, and the alpine and anywhere else that is a potential leak risk,

Sorted a raft of electrical gremlins and then removed a rear row seat to fix the retaining catches. Just need to re spray the frames and get some staples for upholstery gun.

MOT time on Tuesday so my list this week

Front office hub replaced, although nothing showing on dash or Nanocom the wheel had loads of play in it. I also replaced the track bar and track rod ends as they had seen better days.

Anti roll bar bushes replaced as the old ones were showing signs of age.

Had a bit of rough running recently and replaced the injector. Harness and cleaned out the red plug. Also replaced the MAF for good measure.
All had never been replaced before so not bad to get to 160+ thousand miles.

Had a problem with the rest door window that kept coming out its channel. Replaced the channel with a new one and all good.
So tomorrow a clean and tidy and off for a service and MOT
