@ gweir......Yes they are honda civic seats which have the Honda slides as well with plenty leg room between the front and rear seats..Upholstery was done by Richards Bay auto trimmers

@ Enzio....just glad they didn't screw it up and the fonts are visible...

Then I made a Start on getting the interior bits sorted out...

1. Sound proofing using Spray foam, T- Mat and under felt....
2. install the rear door cards 
3. Rear seat
4. Single rear seat belt for my son... Big Grin

My opinion - I wouldn't have used the foam. Could end up being a trap for rust one day.

Rear seating looks comfy Smile

Installed the Central locking which will be hooked up to the alarm system.
Carpeting done and front seats mounted.
Sports Pack Arches where ordered test fitted to make sure that they are perfect before painting them....some 45 hours went into getting them to fit correctly.
I managed to source a rubber strip that could be used for between the arch and body....glued them the inside of the arch so that they don't come off.
Sports Pack fitted...wheels seam to grab a bit on the inside...but after I fit the geometric suspension kit....should be much better.

Looking good Krishan!

RE: Minimad Vanden Plas - Vinay-RS - 09-13-2016

Love the look of the car with the arches and front spoiler. Looks sweet!

RE: Minimad Vanden Plas - Boyscout - 09-13-2016

Looks great!! nice job on the central locking. It can be quite a pain to get it working properly. Your arches look spectacular!

RE: Minimad Vanden Plas - Sooper - 09-13-2016

looking great Krish... that sportspack wheel would do this car soooo much justice bro

RE: Minimad Vanden Plas - Minimad - 09-13-2016

thanks for all the nice comments guys....

I have always been a fan of the Rover mini....hence me going the Sportspack route on this build.

I wish I could afford a set of sportspack wheels...lol
