cheers mate, i managed to do the bonnet on my own and found it pretty easy. the rear door is a bit daunting though as i took off the door card and come across all the insides so i haven't done the job yet :huh: also not sure how to take out the glass from the old door to put in the new one. anyone help before i end up smashing it? :sad:
