BigGrin Pack 9. Tested the circuits on the pedal box then added the centre console parts and the gear lever along with the passenger foot rest. Made up the seat belts and added them to the seats then added the seats to the cockpit. Finally for this part the mats were added.

Fixed the two shock's to the sub frame that concludes this months parts.
More soon.

Looking good Andy.

I am just waiting to put a second coat of gloss on my shocks before I build this pack.

Did you use double sided tape on the seat belt decals or not, Im just not sure if there is a specific type that needs to be used as the decals look like they are sticky themselves

BigGrin Hi Dave

I couldnt see any point in using the double sided tape as I think that part is for a different type of decal than those supplied. For instance water slide decals have a clear lip around there edges that some people remove before applying the decal, I think the instructions are refering to this type of decal as the ones supplied are on thin plastic film and already cut to size. It is a good idea to cut around the decal to break through the varnish coat though.

Regards

Thanks Andy, I was thinking myself I was just going to stick them withouth the tape but thought I would ask first to see if the stickyness was enough. I've just sprayed it with matt varnish so will leave that till tomorrow now to make sure its well and truly dried BigGrin
