Today I got round to something been meaning to do as few bits of tidying had to be done same time, I decided to recover my headlining and fit the leds I made, warning I don’t think I ever want to do another one if you want to know what it was like

nice job...


what do they look like at night?
 
Cheers. Not wired in yet if I’m allowed out to play tomorrow I’ll wire them in and take pictures
 
Getting the old foam off the headlining is time consuming and manky, and really fiddly fitting the actual carpet but so much better than my original lining

Nicely done @Niknak , not as easy as everyone thinks. So many things to break easily if you go to fast.

Are you stalking me? I literally just said to my wife that I wish I had taken next week off as well!!! I was met with some muttering about “well, find a way of paying the mortgage while sat on your ass chatting on that forum!”
 
Ohh how rude, funny I normally get the same from my misses seems it’s all I do lol, I’m on dangerous ground was lucky enough to clear my mortgage earlier this year so looking at options at the moment , got a very unhealthy meh approach to work now lol

Push through the “return to work” pain curve and then recognise that you are now bolstering your retirement/van fund!!!
 
Keep hoping the redundancy fairy might come I been there twenty years in March lol
