Jay. Posted March 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Das, it should be here by the end of the week mate, you decided to get one yet? Cheers Gaz I'm hoping so! Camber isn't the killer it's the toe, but within reason so yeah, your probably right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
das_flo Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 I'll keep an eye on this, if I do it'll be down the line yet but I would love one, maybe with the yellow centre line included in if he could do it. I've got some parts arriving this week & it's service time (already!) so I'll need to leave the spending for a couple of months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay. Posted March 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Luckily the Mrs paid for this as if it was me I would have to be leaving it, certainly no mods now for the foreseeable due to the latest crisis das_flo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glmec Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Hi Jay, just read ya post #616. Hardest part on mine was getting the headrests out, I found that pulling em up to their highest then doing one leg at a time got em out. The rest of it is a bit of a ball ache but all steady enough. On mine getting the c pillar lights out and the pillar covers felt like they was gonna snap but they didn't. Loads of rattle can layers needed but they do come up good. Don't sell ya motor it's beautiful. Fooking women, they do your head in- some of em anyhow. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay. Posted March 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Thanks mate, I did the head rests when I changed the interior & I've done the C pillars before, just curious how you get the seat belts out ? Do you have to unbolt them at the base? Thanks bud, I'm going to see it through regardless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glmec Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Yeh that's right Jay, undo em at the bottom then pop the top belt surround off n slide the belt through. It's a Torx 50 that you'll need. A good tip a read was have a thick towel or similar for when you fold down the leather seats so as you don't mark the backs on the metal brackets.
