LOL I was thinking the same.. very smart clothes for working on the car :grin:

Excellent write up illyun and congratulations on completing the job.  Theres great satisfaction in doing job like this yourself rather than paying someone else.  And now if something goes wrong (hope it doesn't) you'll know exactly where to look.

Well done man, and no grease on the jacket - you did well  :wink:

I think I'll wait until its warmer and lighter nights before I do mine now....

Did you get this kit from Mat?  Are the screws he supplied ok then or do I need some others?

he got it from Luca who got it from me  :smiley: those screws do fit and they need to be tight to stop it moving, both me and joe have them on with no problems at all, just be gentle or use some bolts if it makes it easier for u  :wink:
