Ahh, simple yet effective. My brother had talked about washing them out but I think he used methylated spirits or something; would be worried about any seals though with his method.

Well the old girls back and took her for a good run,well all I can say is it has made an unbelievable difference, all gears up and down the box at various speeds all selecting and feel so much better,no more dash knuckle, parts wise this was a very cheap fix.

Well after Pixie failing the MOT last week I thought I would try and get the back bumper of in preparation for the MOT bodywork repair, both end caps had been hit by the previous owner and had a pretty basic fibre glass repair done, I had picked up a pair of second hand ones knowing I had to change them at some point. Took a bit of time to get all the rusty bolts out, which was a real pain, got the old end caps off, one of them fell apart and the replacements fitted, will have to replace the mounting brackets at some point. Filled a few bits on the replacements just need them primed and painted, at least I get the bumper off again if needed, a lot better than the old ones.

After the excitement of nearly losing the roof vent on the way to France and now being back home decided to get it fixed priced up a new one at £49 but thought I would have a go at fixing it myself.
the top cover was held in place by 4 plastic pins 2 of which had broken, these pins had been heat welded to hold the cover in place, so got a soldering iron and melted down through the middle of the pins then drilled out new mounting holes, and new holes in the handles screwed together with stainless screws washers and nuts also sealed the threads and holes, so job done, had a helper as well.Ordered up a 12v fan to fit the roof light as well.
