Hey guys thought I might make myself one of these build threads to show off what i am doing to my ride. I'll also use this thread to ask most of my questions from now on so i don't fill up the other sections with small questions lol. anyways here she is in the condition i brought her in: standard 1990 sprinter xs w/5afhe engine next up was the new mags, still need to get them repainted but thats at the bottom of the list of things to do then lowered: current extras on the 'rolla include: integrated head/fog lights power am antenna (if someone knows how to wire this up, feel free to help me lol) fxgt front strut brace dash light dimmer (once again need help on wiring lol) rear spoiler long dash (the one with oil pressure and voltage. really wish i knew where a digital one was) gt front seats (need to find rears as the gt ones i got were for a levin and wont go in) eliminated door locks also found a 3 piece front lip and fxgt side skirts but they will require a lot of work before going onespecially since the front lip is off of a gen1 bumper and mine is gen2 and the skirts need the end caps modified. I'll get to it eventually [a hopefully i'll be adding more stuff shortly but i'd love to hear your feedback

Haha no worries, those seats in the pic are soo much better than my standard seats. yeah I'm gonna get coilovers eventually but i'm saving up and over here we have to get major mods checked out for safety (called certification) and that can cost quite a bit. I want the gaurds just sitting above the wheels oh and cheers rincon

test fitted my skirts today to see what needs to be done, can't believe i got these and never even had a proper look at them until now . looks like whoever repaired them previously added too much to the ends so they will need to be filed right down so it fits together, plus i need to get someone to cut the rear caps up so i can open the rear doors. they both got a crack in them too but nothing that ain't fixable.

anyone know what this might be: I blew my gauge fuse yesterday so i put a new one in and that blew too. and i've realised the gauges, heater/fan controls and power windows aren't working at all. the speedometer works fine though :/

yeah, I think I've narrowed it down to the heater/blower. guess this is just the kick I need to finally fix my leaking heater and a/c lol
