Hopefully all that is left is...

Heatshield on rear subframe
Install gauges, shift I +, extinguisher, battery isolator and clamp.
Map it
MOT it

Done.

Going to mount my electric water pump at the front nearside behind the arch liner.

This will make it easy to change if it fails at a a trackday. I have a spare one already :)
