ive done most of the wiring, battery is in the boot , ignition module is under the headlights, air con is gone ec..
heres what i did today
by the way guys, its in Street Machine commodores, not Street Commodores, for some reason they kind of lost interst in it, but glad to see the other mags were quick on the ball with it, and they did an awsome job with the article and photos, comes out october 10th i think
just dont go in any spoon drains in the wet or puddles or by by motor with the pod located there!!!!,should of kept it higher.
