Well after two weeks the Full Recaro Interior salvaged from a old milleniumi s finally in and the transformation to the cars interior is more than i could of hoped for these seats are much more supportave than the orginal cloth ones which were removed.

Due to being a later Puma ive opted to remove only the cloth inserts and refit it with the leather ones this means all the door cards still match - A bit more hastle but the end result looks far better.

Then it was only to find a set of "top hats" from the local scrappy - £2 for the pair Bargin IMHO.

The last task now is just to wire up the electric height adjustment - (which i will get round to eventually)

Connecting the power height adjust is pretty straightforward but is easiest if you have a few bits of old fusebox to use. The good news is there is already a position in the fusebox with power for the power height adjust, but you need the other side of the fuse holder to complete the circuit.

I think I may have covered this in my project thread, probably worth a look anyway.
