Boot on



Arch getting filled



Doors and wing on



Door going on



After all that I've found out I don't have any locking mechanisms or catches at all, Called Crazyquiffs today and waiting for a callback, but if anyone has a set, that'd be ideal!

Thanks

Got all arch trims and then most glass in. Struggled a bit with the door windows, does anyone have a diagram of how the winder goes together, think I might be missing some parts!  :P
