Well, I've just been going through the things that I feel have to be done next year before I go somewhat insane..
The list is in no particular order, I can see my soldering iron taking a wobbly and packing up though....

If anyone has any of the parts I may require can you please PM me with a price? Cheers

Tidy Paintwork - Cleaned up some of the blemishes, cut back the bodged repair jobs done earlier last year and this year - looks completely diffferent now)
Install rear floor heaters (require SRI blower installed - scrapped idea for now)

Install Kerb lights into the doors (front and rears) - got the kerblights, just need wiring in now
Replaces all door hinge pins - lost the hinge pins
Realign passenger side doors - as above
Replace A Pillar Trim(s) - will recover in the new year.

Install sound deadening for floor, and relay carpets - not till i've fixed the leak completely.
Install all new bits of trim (inner sill trim, kick panels,) - getting there.
Rub back, fill, and spray up rear lip spoiler for fitting - not this side of new year
Pick up a set of alloys - done - 1st March 2008 - Corsa SXi alloys - rather fetching on the cav
