   I just ripped the carpet and sound deadening of the floor of the car. Not much else left to come out now haha.
   
   Also ripped the stereo out and replaced it with carbon fibre panel, all coming along nicely now. Any ideas for what else to take out?

   I was thinking about chopping the dash just after the centre console but that will happen when/after I get the dash flocked.

    Too much wiring in that dave! You still have the airbag ecu and loom.
    
    Scott - bullit isn't wrong. You can get rid of the ariel and all the wiring through the dash (should just pull out without haviong to cut it if you're lucky.
    
    Def get shut of the passenger seat. They and passengers are heavy.
    
    Roof lining if you haven't already?
    
    All the little bolts and plastic trims on the top half of the interior?
    
    The large bit of sound deadening under the dash - will need dash out to get it out
