And ended up like this!
even lighter than before!!
im thinking i might get a stereo hanger as any...
My aux belt has started making a really loud whine!!
i dont think its a tension issue as i tightened it before and its still making the noise,
it has very little movement up and down if you try to move it by hand with the engine off!!
what else could it be if not loose??

Perhaps the officers in my area are used to pulling modified cars over!!!
all the police that have pulled me over have been nice enough, after a bit of an ear bashing if ive done something silly!
i dont think ive ever been pulled over simply because i drive a modified car!

but i spent all afternoon with my pot of turd polish in prep for FCS tomorrow,
