What have you done to your Elgrand today?

Where is the panel..have you got a picture of it lit up..
Nice little Garson DAD heel guard fitted mats.
Got one fitted to passenger side mat too, looks better with two on rather than just one.
Finally sorted out the passenger side window electroluminescent panel and all is now working as it should after having to fit a replacement driver.

Not sure who to ask about this but if the mods and staff are reading this is it possible to add another thread for the above.

Its always nice to read and see what folk are doing with their Elgrands.

Cheers
 
I looked at Elgrands all day on eBay/gumtree/auto trader much like I have done the rest of the week, does that count?
 
Went to dentist, collected 300kg of fire wood on way home... as you do.
 
Gave Magpie a, good wash and clean to get rid of salt and road grime and tried out a new 25 litre purchase of snow foam (actually ended up being 2x25lts as company didn't send the Apc but was told to keep the extra one free and they sent the Apc on afterwards) and 25 litre of Apc, both are concentrated so will be good to see how they perform over my trusty bilt hamber products, as these new purchases are considerably cheaper, as they cost £49 with free taps.
Will keep you posted.

Well since taking ownership of mine 2 weeks ago ive polished it to death ( my style ) fitted all new Blue LED bulbs inside, Added a couple of Nismo badges to front sides and rear along with Nismo valve caps and got to fit the Nismo wheel centres as yet. Ordered my new Cruise control kit from Australia, Bought a Rider S high top spoiler which is off to paint soon and then fit it, Had a bloody chip in my screen repaired by Autoglass ( brilliant job BTW ), filled her up 3 times!!!!!!!! LOL, bought a full set of manuals from Autojapspares including the VDU book so I can now work my fuel computer which is great stuff, fitted a K&N airfilter in the box, added my Elgrand boot liner tray I won on ebay, fitted a centre console box inbetween the front seats which my dealer gave me for free, added new chrome door handle covers from ebay and new chrome mirror covers which again my dealer gave me, driven her up north and back and returned an average of 25 mpg on the computer, changed the front number plate for a smaller 15" x 3.5 " type and then wept at the size of my bank account!!! LOL.

Plans afoot are - Get big exhaust silencer changed for a smaller sportier type and look at having her re-mapped post de-cat of rear cats which has been done for me by my selling dealer.

Get all my side and rear windows dark tinted as ive got curtains inside mine and the glass is NOT full tint like my E50 was.

That's about it for now and just enjoy her as best I can.
 
Most recent job for me is uv LED strip lights in the back...

Not quite the effect I was hoping for as they give off too much visible light but probably the best you can get when using LEDs. 20171126_175438.jpg 20171209_163330.jpg
