I've got three kids aged from two to ten and lowerd mine on the eibach pro springs and its not hard  of a drive atall and makes handling even better.

will need to get the tracking alignment done after lowering though. Costs around 40 quid at your local tyre fitting place.

also here's some guides you may find of interest

Looks good mate,

Maybe some red gripped heater controls would set a contrast better now.

Ive fitted a switch to mine; put it next to the OBD port, the red switch next to it is for the cup holder illumination, being a red switch it also illuminates the OBD pocket #2Birds1Switch

Thanks just need a suitable place to put a switch to turn on a set of submarine lights in the overhead curtesy lights

Could wire them in to the parking light swith unit I think it's Pin 16 at the back of it which is spliced in to for the sub light illumination 

Pin 16 is what I used.
It's the number plate light circuit that goes live when you switch your sidelights on.
