Thanks Rob, tried to keep the theme and not introduce too much 80's into the back

I have been doing a few night cruises and shows so I thought a bit of light might be different.

I installed under bonnet LED plug in lights on magnets and fitted some LED lights in the back

So along with the Holden wanky thing that projects the Holden logo I secretly wired the bonnet with 12v and put some concealed plugs in the holes in the front bonnet corners. I then found some old speakers and scavenged the
magnets.

I got some 12v LED spotlights and mounted them to the magnets and put wiring plugs on the end. I used the plugs so I can unplug them when I want to leave. I also put that clear paint protector vinyl under the magnets so they don't scratch the paint...I have a problem!

We have a drought so you are safe. Anyways there are pavilions and I am sure we can squeeze that beautiful beast in somewhere. There is a sandman award or two as well as the usual top ten which I think you would be in the running for
