And while on topic of modding and blinging up, are those mirrors (covers?) the ones from powerful UK as they’re covering both top and bottom?

They were from eBay a couple of years ago? Just stick over normal mirrors.

Yes my arches are good, no big scratches.

We can sort postage I'm sure Thumbs Up

MOT today and passed with 1 advisory on rear tyre - which I knew about and have in hand. Very Happy

AC Condenser has a hole in it and needs replacing Sad

I have a small leak on the AC somewhere. Super cold when I picked it up. 8months later it was warm. Censored

Oil change last weekend. Got myself in a right tizz. The height of the oil between hot and cold is alarming quite different. Plus when it so clean its hard to read. Ended up sucking a litre out only to put most of it back in!


Now on Goodyear Duratracs and suprised on how much heat the tyre generates on a run.

Done both sides without the rear doors. Torx screws are rusted completely.

I've left wd40 on them but I'm not hopeful.

Anyone know where to get the screws from which are into the plastic as I have taken my mud flaps off and the screws were shot.

Got mine from ebay…

Search for

POZI PAN SELF TAPPING SCREWS A2 STAINLESS STEEL TAPPERS No.2,4,6,8,10,12,14

I think I bought 10 and 12s but would need to measure the length. Dont forget about some A2 stainless steel penny washers to go with them.

Cheers Thumbs Up

Do you know the size of the T20 screws in the rear door. I am going to have to drill the heads off they are not moving.

I'm sure you need a set of rear lights on this now

I am not going for them, I like my 40% smoked standard lights.

The only option is to buy a red set and then smoke them to see what they look like?

Liking those painted arches Thumbs Up

I would like to put red reflectors in my front lights, is it legal or do they have to be orange at the front?
