Where'd you find the cup holder, Ryan? Looks like a decent option.

It gets the job done and cost me less than $5. I'll show you today.

Looks great Ryan! Your HomeLink buttons blend in very well, had to spend a while just trying to find them in the picture.

Opened it up looking for some zip-ties which I needed to route wires in my other car.
Keeping the car under a cover is a good deterrent from storing tools and parts in it. I have to uncover it just to find out that I didn't put something there, after all. Ten minutes later, I'm back where I started, but sweating a lot more.

Went to a show today, in Rostrevor, about an hour's drive from Belfast. We had 5 D's in total, with one of the other guys in a very nice Porsche.
I'm absolutely shattered after a six hour round trip. It was the first time I've ever seen more than two in one place, but the big thrill was cruising down the motorway with 5 D's in a line

Very cool MML. It's fun putting them side by side and comparing all the little differences isn't it?

I cleaned the valve covers using Gunk. I didn't think it would work that well, but it totally removed all the 30 year old grease and grime and has restored the valve covers' color from a putrid brown to a bare/raw silver-grey.
(tip: when using Gunk, avoid spraying it on all plastics, as it can result in some discoloration - I covered off all the other engine bay areas and pontoons with garbage bags so as to avoid causing a mess.)
Next week is our ODOC tech day, so I hope to get the car on the lift and get a chance to detail the underside of the car.
