PaulStarletSR Posted May 24, 2013 Author Share Posted May 24, 2013 sure have mate! headin outside to drill the rest of the passenger harness hole Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PaulStarletSR Posted May 24, 2013 Author Share Posted May 24, 2013 turns out the previous owner has shocked me YET AGAIN with his shoddiness. were hes drilled a hole for the drivers harness, he has NOT put a nut or washer inside the tunnel to hold the fuckin thing, just painted the floor and the paint was all that was holdin it tight. so il bolt that when I've got an extra pair of hands to turn it as i cant do anythin like that while under the car because of the heatshield. passenger hole is drilled however and just needs a nut and washer on the underside to secure. honestly, if u want a job done properly, do it yourself. i would love to know who the last owner was because he really has tried to ruin this little car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
