AF saves the day
Steve saves the day again
I rang rakeway and they said I don't need the extended ones and just normal studs so gave Steve (AF) to have a quick check they were the length required and ordered 10 for £8 So happy days. Now just got to watch some you tube videos of people changing the studs 07 Java Black TD V6 D3, EGRs Blanked, Tow bar, Full dog guard & divider, LED Spots , DRLs, GG ATs, RLD Sump guard, RLD Spare Wheel Protector, D4 LED Rear Lights, Limo tints on boot and Midnight tint on rear windows, Kenwood screen with Garmin nav, Rear cameras, D4 Steering wheel with flappy paddles, T-max split charge system, Tree sliders, Prospeed roof rack & Ladder, Alisport fast road inter cooler,

I had really hoped to have used it by now!! Have been so busy and was in Rome least week and off to Vietnam this Friday so sadly not much time recently to spend in the tent
But tonight I got the studs changed over and the new wheels on
First one out and to compare:
Took me about an hour in total and was really simple. A few taps with a 3lb lump hammer and out they popped. Then just put a large washer and then the a nut on a pulled them in
I put the wheels one for a test fit but they will be coming off to have the GG tyres put on and at the same time I will put the sprats on
I think that's all I will be able to do before I go away Friday morning got some decking in a friends garden to finish
But I promise I am going away for the weekend in it when I get to back in two weeks time!!!

Hi Tommy,
I used some Coloured PVC coated galvanised steel roofing sheets. I found a local supplier to me who delivered them for about £35 a sheet off the top of my head.
I will try and find you more details when I get home but currently on holiday and if SWMBO catches me on here then I am 07 Java Black TD V6 D3, EGRs Blanked, Tow bar, Full dog guard & divider, LED Spots , DRLs, GG ATs, RLD Sump guard, RLD Spare Wheel Protector, D4 LED Rear Lights, Limo tints on boot and Midnight tint on rear windows, Kenwood screen with Garmin nav, Rear cameras, D4 Steering wheel with flappy paddles, T-max split charge system, Tree sliders, Prospeed roof rack & Ladder, Alisport fast road inter cooler,
