Now added the remote stereo controls, managed to pick one up on ebay. I used some speaker cable to connect it up.

I positioned it close to the wheel so my fingers can reach it while im still holding the wheel:

This is one mod that is really worth doing, as it makes life so much easier and you dont have to take your eyes off the road to fiddle with the stereo 8-)

This thing had been floating around the engine, found where it goes, just clips in, think its the cover for the HCV:

replaced my broken mirror, but found it would not stick unless the residue from the last sticky pad was completly removed from the window. I opted to go for a genuine brand new mirror (not cheap @ £50!):

The old mirrors metal casting snapped when I tried to adjust the mirror because it was stiff:http://www.flickr.com/photos/65056499@N05/5982128442/http://www.flickr.com/photos/65056499@N05/5982128442/ by http://www.flickr.com/people/65056499@N05/, on Flickr

Removing old sticky pad, used some alcahol cleaning soloution and a blunt plastic scraper:http://www.flickr.com/photos/65056499@N05/5982130522/http://www.flickr.com/photos/65056499@N05/5982130522/ by http://www.flickr.com/people/65056499@N05/, on Flickr

New mirror fitted, just pressed on firmly, took a day or so to set fully:
