I am working on procuring a new wheel for my 951, I bought this for her, but decided to mount it in my NA just to see how I liked it... I like it so much I am leaving it there, and either getting the same wheel for the 951 or picking up a TRS wheel for the 951...

Changed the clutch master today, not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be and I even disconnected the rod from the pedal as I didnt know it came out of the master cyl that easy..LOL.. Still need to do the slave and hose though. I also checked out how well the gauges light up with the LED upgrade and reflector refurb (tinfoil method)....I was amazed with the results in comparison to what they were like...

I half fitted a new rear compartment light. It was my lunch break and ran out of time but will finish it tonight after work.

Got light fitted, and I also fitted a new lid to wiper washer reservoir.
