  5. When Jay fitted mine he used a shed load of WD40 to pursuade the feckers to go on. Took some time though, wasnt easy, and once on they got horsed up with jubilee clips. Phil.
  6. is it any different to regular plumbers tape then chaps? Because I have plumbers tape in the house.

  12. Good man cheers dude!!! there must be a simple way of doing that, putting the pics up here from instagram! someone really needs to tell me how!!!! drivers-side dash is all back together, as is the centre console. Passenger dash/glovebox all being rebuilt this evening. I realise it will have to be removed once The Man, aka, Mr Green, aka, Smokey Joe, aka, Stealth-Mode-Lexus-Driver returns, but we disucssed this and Chris would rather it was all reconstructed, and then we will deconstruct as necessary for the future tinkering of wires. I have also straightened out all the gauges so that
  13. Update A man, a man in a Lexus, he came to my house brandishing spade connectors and a crimping tool. He did some voodoo, and now there are some illuminated gauges on the dash.

Update Got the eyebolt to move using a bigger screw driver! But now it just spins, so that confirms my half-assed theory that there is a nut on the other side. Time to bust out the axle stands again and try and get up in behind the heat shield!!! Then I will have
  17. SPOTTED!!! Tropicana coloured N/A, came from Hillsborough direction, then joined the M1 heading towards Moira but continued on towards Lurgan / Portadown. Stock front end, but the rear bumper had a valance-style piece moulded in, similar to what Joel had sitting for his, M3 style wirrors, side skirts that looked like they may have been part of that crazy German kit that was floating about a few years back, and a spoiler moulded onto the OEM small spoilers for the N/As.
