I did for a few days lol. I needed to put the bonnet on for the intercooler. I had the glanza sitting there and needed to get rid of it because the maw was going mental lol so i had to change swap all the good stuff of the glanza before i got rid of it -

I used alloy wheel cleaner, just sprayed it everywhere then went over it with a sponge and hot soapy water then rinsed it all down and dryed it up with an old towel. It worked great, took all the oil off and rust!! It looks great now. That was just last weekend.

Cheers. No it was streight forward to do, also had to change the dash and all the dash wiring etc but it only took me and my mate 7 hours to do the whole thing, thats taking the standard engine out, dash, exhaust, radiator etc. Very easy conversion to do and well worth it. -
