Also - I have had a frustrating time trying to sort the non-funtioning CD player. Firstly I couldn't get the bloomin' thing out of the dash and now I cannot get the screws undone to clean the head........... 20180216_152822 by Mark Blewitt, on Flickr 20180216_152831 by Mark Blewitt, on Flickr Any thoughts on the right screwdriver? Can't get anything to work........most frustrating!

Good work that man! Best seats ever and she's looking very smart indeed.
I finally replaced the speakers in mine last week while the weather was nice, nearly a year I put up with just the 2 oldies working in the dash, now running a set of Alpine's, love doing bits that make a huge difference.

Many thanks for your kind words! They are the best seats ever! I still have to attack the ICE in the old girl......

That looks fantastic. 9000's are such magic machines to drive. Enjoy.

This thread reminds me how much I miss my Aero: black with black and a lot of Abbott and Maptune.

Got another couple of very little but very satisfying jobs done on the old girl yesterday; 1. Fitted the 'turbo' grill badge; 20180411_160936 by Mark Blewitt, on Flickr 2. Took out, cleaned, oiled and re-fitted the noisy interior temp sensor - those of you with either a 9K or an OG 9-3 will know just how noisy these get when they get clogged up with dust; 20180411_160440 by Mark Blewitt, on Flickr Oftentimes it is the case that the little jobs are very rewarding!

Nice! Was going to "turbo" badge my grill at some point, amazing how rare those little buggers are now, haven't had to do my interior temp sensor yet but may do when I get the dash out to fit boost gauge and then that's it for the small cheap jobs on to the expensive, oh great! Haha.

More jobs started today. The engine bay is more than a bit of a mess - another inheritance from it's slumber in the DCA yard........So it had looked like this; 20171219_133334 by Mark Blewitt, on Flickr After some cleaning it has started to look a little better; 20180413_150937 by Mark Blewitt, on Flickr Particularly pleased with the delivery pipe; 20180413_150944 by Mark Blewitt, on Flickr Obviously more to do........... So I went to fit the replacement indicator unit; 20180413_143706 by Mark Blewitt, on Flickr However when I went to fit the 'new to me' unit - the lens came away from the housing.........some glue beckons........... So short term plans; 1. Get the 'good' spoiler fitted 2. Thermostat - combined with coolant flush 3. Silicone hoses - cannot decide which route to take with these - Black maptun ones from Neos or the Ali express ones......... 4. Fit the CD changer I have - anyone got a C-bus Clarion lead or a suitable 'cage' to secure it? Longer term plans; 1. Wheels - 16" Exposed nut Super Aeros are the dream! 2. Tyres............ 3. Have the Air con looked at/re-gas 4. Front armrest I'm sure there is more......

I'm running the black Maptun coolant pipes on mine, fitted nice and look good, I have a Maptune boot for the top of the delivery pipe too if you want it? Only done a few hundred miles with it before I upgraded to the Abbott Racing delivery pipe which is too big for it now, you can have it and the delivery pipe if you like? Can get it powder coated or something then if you want.
