Chris's new build of an MX5 based car

[CTWV50]

Sunday! I should of stayed in bed. Opened the garage door and one of the cables let go. Tried to fix it as I have done in the past, made it worse and lost all the spring tension, having fixed it before about 8 times in the last 3 years I said "no more" and spent the next hour finding a replacement to buy on the internet. Guess what I'll be doing next weekend!

Anyway, calmed down enough to have a go at the tunnel cover. I'm doing it in sections as I can't get my head around doing it all in one go. This was the first attempt, too much foam and a bit weak on top but I gave it to the wife hoping she'd be able to do a good job covering it in vinyl! Sorry luv it was crap!



At this point I almost gave up for the day but I decided to simplify it and strengthen it and try again.



Recognise the the button fixing? oh yes Mazda genuine items.



It's very comfortable, just the right height. Used 1/4" high density foam and just covered the top in the end.

Doing around the hand brake is going to be a t**t of a job, me and my great ideas hey.

edit: Oh yeah, edged the seats too for the very sensitive IVA ( it's a bit rough for me, I want it nice and smooth like a babes bottom) man. I have to say I hate the IVA man!!!!!
