The next thing I want to do is change out the wheels and tyres.
I like the gloss black sawtooths, not very original I know but they are good looking.
The car currently has factory Boosts and Co ... |

I realised on the way home, the front DRL lights in the bumper and the front spot lamps weren't working.
After a little investigation, I decided to remove the spot lamps and their associated wirin ... |

I don't fancy removing the tank!
Thanks for your advice, I'll have a think about the plug type before doing it. But I think I'll order a rivnut kit as you suggested and go for it.
