Well pleased to once again be "back in Black" :D

Heater isn't all I remember it being, although I think that's to do with the foam being missing off the blend door & recirc door judging by the click/knock they make on closing rather than the soft thud one normally hears. Other than that all's well so far & nice & comfy once again (spits on Focus seat) :rofl2:

EDIT-: just popped out and swapped the bodged positive battery cable to a better bodge as the body electrics were getting iffy & starter didn't engage 100% Got a nice quick-connect terminal on there now too.
