Well I started this in March (I think) but finally got the car back together . So my final set of photos, it's time to enjoy driving it now. Well until next year , when I plan a few little engine mods , mainly cosmetic but may involve a MBE ECU. The full leather has worked very well.
I must also thank John Giddings & Cath (The Trim Technican) and Heath Briggs (X-Works)


Really pleased with the Battery and Fuse Box relocation.







And of course the Chinesse TVR Door Lights




And my home made rear light pods.

Note - I can look at arranging the buy as long as 4 other people are interested - £60 for 5 units.
Or alternatively buy these on E-bay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2x-Courtesy-4th-gen-Car-...

and send me a SAE and I'll send you the TVR films smile .
I gave Heath @Xworks which are on his Tuscan and Dom@ Power a set for his Sag but they are rare smile .

total agreement.looks fab Keith. l think Blackpool only used carpet just to keep costs low. the leather looks superb and the battery and fuse box mods are sensible upgrades.

One switch is to turn footwell/interior lighting on (with the doors closed) and the other is to turn the engine bay lighting on/off. At the other end of the cubby hole is a dual USB connector off the head unit , for USB stick and charger (besides my phone it will also charge my SKYCADDIE for golf smile ).
The wiring loom just reaches the rear passenger side box going down the centre console without extending (needed some tidying under the dash to shorten the route a little). Had to put a little cutout in the panel but you don't see it behind the passenger seat. The box corners needed cutting out of the body to take the battery and re-firbreglassing but the chassis is very close so there's not much room.
Thanks for the nice comments...

I really recommend the Pioneer DEH-X8500DAB unit, with Bluetooth to my Windows Phone I've got the car audio/hands free system like those fitted to modern cars . The DAB Film aerial needs sorting, I've had it put in the dash and not vertical on the screen(because that looks naff). Reception seems a bit iffy, may try a solid T aerial in dash.Infinite colour settings to match the car. I've now bought a second Pioneer unit to replace the Alpine unit in my Tuscan Vert.
