FUEL TANK BREATHER HOSE:
Everytime I fuelled up I would cover rhe forecourt floor with fuel. Common problem on the 850 is the fuel breather hose failing.
I replaced mine yesterday along with the funnel gasket. Although I need to source a new clamp for this gasket as mine has collected moisture and rusted slightly.
3D PRINTING:
tried printing NLA parts such as the wiper shaft bush and the door lock mechanism bush (available but super expensive from skandix)
Trial 1 was a fail as they were too brittle. Trial 2 I'll add more flex additive.
REAR MUDGUARDS:
These guards were an optional extra when buying a T-5R. They're NLA but I managed to source a NOS set from Tradera.
They've been sitting in my stock as I waited for the stone protection to arrive from GCP.
I finally received all the parts and installed.Only issue I encountered was the speed nuts that came with the guards didn't work - too short and the holes didn't align. I sourced correct size speed nuts to complete install.
Finally caught up again on this epic thread! Nice work. I find it funny that you work in your socks! 
I love the blanket in the rear boot area…great colours to match the car. Keep up the good work.
Good work as usual mate , looking good
Are you going to upgrade the fuel pump at some time ? Something else to think about for future proof.
Some don't like the look of rear mud flaps , I prefer the look myself and remember the hassle of lining up the holes 
carnut222 Yeah, love working in my socks - there's a reasons for this:
The shed roof is so low (& I'm so tall) that if i wear footwear i run the risk of bumping my head. I'm talking mm precision haha
That blanket has spent many years in the boot of my 240 so had to have it in the T-5R - handy for placing things on or if i have a spill it protects the carpet (like what happened a few weeks ago) :-O

No plans to touch the fuel pump yet, it was something i was tempted to look at when i dropped the tank but decided not to. Any tips or reasons around upgrading?
I can understand both but my history of car ownership is to always run mudflaps so I'll stick to my plans and they actually look pretty decent on and complete the look imo
Current list of items to go through when i get home later this month:

Yep I agree , I like the look on mine with the mud flaps
Fuel pump .... mine failed and couldn't keep up with the upgrades plus it was the original hence pretty old .
rado ah gotcha, I'll stick with mine until it fails unless i get bored! haha
I'm currently over your neck of the woods - Harvey, WA
Harvey , be careful down there lol , an hour and 20 minutes south from me ..
How good does that look? All brand new with fresh hardware.
rado does this remote not work with the 810 radio in your photo?
Johnno_ Looks the part in person, happy with the results. i have a couple of other items in mind that i must get around to purchasing
One of which is an all black RIP kit but this goes against my philosophy to keep it 'factory' but it would also compliment the tune and perhaps my turbo pipes are tired and worn out anyway,
morch_66479
The one for sale ? Apparently that one works on the 801 not 810
morch_66479 Was factory on the 94 T5 models, got updated in 95 due to ice build up issues folk lore has it
Silly question alert:
Why doesn't the original T-5R pouch fit in the little slot in the glovebox?
I've removed all files from the pouch and only goes in a little bit and gets wedged.
I've also tried rotating 90 degree - it goes in but they glovebox door won't close.
Surely this should just fit in without any issue?
I've never tried mine , I keep it safe in the house..
They won't hold much paperwork if you want them to fit , just put basic factory and purchase paperwork in them they'll fit ok
242GT yea your right but in the original post is problem with mine is: it doesn't fit even when i remove all the paperwork.
