Now That is really sad.
Tee hee...
Now That is really sad.
Hmm, I’ve recently fitted a controlled descent self lowering toilet seat in the house (pleased spouse), one of those might just go with it rather well !
Different kind of 'dump' there Flint…Hmm, I’ve recently fitted a controlled descent self lowering toilet seat in the house (pleased spouse), one of those might just go with it rather well !
OK, toilet humour aside (for the moment) the continuing saga of front seat replacement in the 80 continues....
Saturday was a nice sunny clear day and warm enough for a "T" shirt outside....

No excuses, so I set about installing the replacement passenger side seat, which has been sitting gathering dust and all sorts of bits of bird nest materials and so forth in my shed, for the last 12 months or more...
Alas, no pictures of my superb fabrication of bracketry, due to me being too bone idle to take photos. Not to mention that I'd be way too embarrassed to post them, 'cos you're all too familiar with Ben's first-class handicrafts... hey ho.
But the finished article doesn't look too bad IMO, and it hasn't fallen off yet...
From the passenger side...

And, from the driver's side

And I washed it this morning... 'cos it was mingin'

Don't look too close, the guy missed a few bits...

And then after lunch it poured down with rain....

What are those seats out of Clive??
They look comfy
Nice job there Clive. I hope Aura is pleased. If she's anything like Lynn she'll love the heated seat. It's the only thing she likes about the Smart.
Speaking of which I hit a bad pothole in it so hard yesterday that it set the passenger side airbag off!! I was stunned!! (Threadjack over)
That's good Clive.
I've made progress with the Smart. The gearbox fault has now been consigned to history after changing the gearbox/engine loom. That one was absolute as it changed the car after the loom was swapped. So, onto the power steering intermittent fault. I treated the connectors with Deoxit about 2 weeks ago and cleaned the PCB in the steering ECU. So far so good it doesn't try and steer left.
Two steps forward, one step back. Known faults now are thermostat, airbag and AC leak. And a knock from underneath that I've not been able to find.
Wo... What is that thing?
