Was all going reasonably swimmingly until a screw which attaches the drivers side inner wheel arch to the front bumper started spinning in its slot without withdrawing.... ...took an hour of frabbing to get that last b***ard out Evil or Very Mad

At least you've got the whole weekend ahead of you to sort it. Just think how good it'll look when you're done. Wink

And then there's sourcing and fitting some lights. Wink

Gareth - looks more like a freezer to me - says he who seems to have no fewer than 2 'drinks' fridges, much to 'she who it is best to obey's displeasure.
Leigh

PS Anyone want to buy a 410 litre fridge only (no freezer compartment)? - yes, only joking about selling...

* first ran a bearing (design failure in original engine)
* second had a failure of the water outlet on top of the engine (pls check yours)

Freezer indeed.

Job now done - a further 2 hours this morning finished it off.

It really is a heart-in-mouth moment when you take the hole saw to the front bumper Wink

Amazingly there was no complaint from the car when driven (down the drive) in the state you saw last night - with the single exception of a bong and a "low washer fluid" message
