Just removed the glovebox and like any budding gynocologist used two fingers to first locate the recess then slide the plug in.
Only took 10 minutes to get it in, another 10 fooling around and 10 more tidying up.


Same, wanna get the Bluetoof now as an upgrade as well.

pfffffft.

You made the right choice with the soft top Reggie, for what you intend, it makes more sense.

Coming from an NB you will also find the roof much easier to operate from the drivers seat already.

Well the NB has departed to its new owner this afternoon, after being for sale for 6 weeks

The new owner is wrapped, she is actually a solicitor for a hairdressing chain :P haha

Time to start work on the NC now :D
