Looks like a good basis to start from, plans sound good too!

That steamer does the jobs very well for what it costs :)
Well I'm mainly aiming to get it all running sweet as a nut mechanically wise and also a better environment to be in with the smells from previous owners dogs.
So today, my Odor Bomb arrived, used these quite a lot on my previous car because it used to leak often and caused dampness smells. Very much highly recommend these. For people not knowing these products. It practically eliminates any foul smells in the cars fabrics. Various scents about, just eBay Dakota Odor Bomb. Position in the center of the car for maximum coverage. Push nozzle right down, it locks. Close all doors and leave to settle for 12hrs. Then open all doors to vent it out. Hoover whats left about, its only fluids.
Also turned up today was my drill attachments, circular wire brush type thing, like a bottle cleaner. I wasn't happy with my exhaust being covered in soot and corrosion. So gave it ago and it worked very well. As you can see below. Sunday hoping to get my headlights in, wanted to fit them tomorrow but I've been told Im driving to Bristol for crimbo shopping. Good excused to clean out the exhaust etc etc.
Before.
After.
Tool.
