Best of luck... While you're in there can you take a couple pics of which wires I would need to mess about with to wire up the LED Sills?

Be interesting to see what people come up with over these 11 days

I spent today fitting my Cusco front arms and regassed my aircon while I was at it. Next up is some wiring... not on the same scale as this though, I'm not doing the dash out thing for a month or so!
