There ya go then
If you do attempt this, be VERY careful where you put the additional self- tapping screws required in the front wheelarch - there's lots of stuff behind there that you really don't want to put a screw into
The penny washers will (eventually) get painted with black hammerite - or maybe left to acheive their 'natural' colour

C'mon it does not get dark until gone 11pm at this time of year, give the man a chance! Imagine having to stay sober until then just to take some piccies
We will no doubt have a demo at the camp site in a couple of weeks.

Any more details on this TFC? Our D3 wasn't delivered with the mudflaps I thought it would be, but having read another thread on this it looked a better idea to go with the "flappy bits" than with the LR stiffies (ooer missus), although I have no idea how to find the necessary material here in France (translation of "tank liner" please, Gurvan?)

Ian,
they're basically made from butyl rubber sheet, approx 4 - 5mm thick, fixed using a combination of the original fixing points and a few self - tapping screws and penny (or Euro) washers
