As the wood is coated with a clear lacquer I always use autoglym resin polish. I have tried many household products like mentioned above, but none gave that proper shine like resin polish does. Mine also had a few scratches so I took it out and gave it a rub with 2000 grit wet and dry, followed by a good polish with previously mentioned product and it really came up like new

Hi Lloyd, Secondary cats can be gutted or removed without any CEL issues. The Borla aftermarket exhaust system for example, removes these and the resonator pipe without any issues. Only the primary cats in the headers are monitored electronically by O2 sensors (there are 4 in total, 2 before the primary cats, 2 after). This is why headers such as PPE and Sikky come with an O2 conditioner to prevent CEL issues after they are installed. Removing the secondary cats and resonator will increase the sound, and free up a few more horsepower. You shouldn't have any issues with CEL's. My next mod will be the same H&S system Stuno and others are running, but I am removing the secondary cats as well. :) One issue over here is the MOT test now requires all cars to have the same number of cats fitted as they did when they were manufactured. This will be a visual inspection, but I can't see how the testers will know how many our cars had when they were built? Provided the tailpipe test passes on emissions, I don't think it will cause a problem. Something to check/consider though. Best of luck with the mods! Car looks lovely. :) Cheers. Peter
