Re: That engine mount....photos.

I did both of mine not so long ago....... not too bad......getting to the bolts from above can be abit trick especially if the engine has moved a lot.......... as said you will probably need another person to wiggle the engine about as you lower it back down so it sits correctly!

Rear Dealership Sticker

Bit of a random question...

Does anyone have a rear shot of a touring still with its origional dealership sticker.

Just got hold of an origional sytner sticker and was about to put it on the car but wasnt sure where exactly it goes on the rear window....

Cheers

Received my new plates today, had origionally wanted slightly smaller / shorter plates although these will do for now. Wasted no time at all and got em stuck on the car with some double sided velcro type stuff. what do you think? :D http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v92/tremorz/My%20E30/100920075941...
