New 3.0R Spec B from SA

Postby Taranza » Wed Aug 29, 2012 1:16 pm

Hi Guys,

Some of you may or may not remember me from the last dinner at the Tapp Inn the SA group had, but I've now bought myself a new Liberty and couldn't be happier!

I've bought a 2006 MY07, 3.0R Spec B, 6spd Manual (Silver). It is relatively standard at the minute except for upgraded head lights and front lip.

I have a few electric mods I would like to do intially such as changing the map lights to come on with the dome light (I’m surprised the Liberty’s didn’t do this already) and various other mods. As I suspect tho once I start the modifying bug will bite again!

I hope to get pics up soon once I have given it a good clean inside and out and look forward to meeting more of you on the next cruise. :D

Lachie.

Congrats Lachie! Awaiting pics :P

Be careful with the map/dome light wiring, definitely one you want to actually disconnect the battery for before attempting it (costs a few $$$ if you fry your BUI).

G'day Lachie,

Welcome to a great forum.

I must admit to not remembering you from the Tapp Inn but that's got more to do with me not being there than for any other reason.

Hope to meet up at one of the cruises.

cheers,

bj

Congrats on the buy mate, i remember you were on the hunt as i was contemplating the same thing. I take it you probably ended up buying interstate?

Welcome!

Was good to see you at the Tapp Inn,

Look forward to some pics. Keen on finding out how you go with the lighting mods as It's so dark in the Libs!

Welcome and congrats on the new car. Like your avatar also.
I got this plan. It's called 'Save Ass'. And the way it works is this - I slip outta one of these windows and I run like a bastard!
