Today I will fit a new Left headlight since the old one was too dazzle and has moisture in the inner during the morning. I will fit a new supercharger belt since the existing one makes a noise when the belt is cold...I have tried to tighten it and also sand the belt with a sand paper, but no inprovement.

Well I changed the supercharger belt and the noise dissapeared...I also fitted the new headlight and the car looks much better...

Today I fitted almost all the new parts on the car. Firstly we changed the front bushes. As you see from the photo the front bush is damaged after 125,000km so I presume it will be a good idead to have a look at your bushes too. Removing the oem bushes was not an easy job. It requires a map gas, a chesil and a hummer.
