Alex did away with some gubbins on the alternator bracket.

I deleted the a/c some time ago so he's cut away the stuff thats not required. Maybe saved a kilo lol, tidier and more room to get to stuff.

The one on the left is for comparison, mine is on the right;

That 4 gram weigh saving should give you a 0.00000000000000007 second lap advantage.

Keep thinking of doing the ac delete but for the daily comfort of defrosting the screen a whole lot better, I'm just not sure.

Looks great tho dude  :congrats:

There is the de misting situation but the plan is to fit a heated screen.  The car doesn't get used that much over winter either.

Does anyone else hide a couple of those de humidifier packs in the car over winter or is it just the cheap Seats that let moisture gather inside? lol

Audi's get it as well. I haven't started using the dehumidifier packs yet but my s3 is murder for misting. I was out in it last night for first time in couple of weeks, heaters full boost for about 40miles, parked it up and within 5mins every window had it again.
