Replacing front brake discs and pads
Hi Guys,
Time to change the Front Disc and Pads... I've done the rears a few months ago...is it the same procedure or is it different?
Thanks.

Hardtop inner lining
Hi Guys,
What's the best thing to clean the headlining of an original hardtop? I was thinking warm soapy water but not sure if there are any particular products someone can recommend.
Thanks

PAS hose
Hi guys,
Where do I get the PAS hose that is at the bottom of the reservoir tank? The one connected at the moment has not been secured using jubilee clips so I thought might as well change the hose seeing as its caked in ATF!
Thanks,
Bal.

Re: Brand new...

Oh definitely!! He has done a really good job as you can see from the pics, but I think he is all booked up for the summer! I actually fell in love when I picked her up. Well pleased with the work and would 100% recommend him to anyone needed paint correction and other detailing work.

Re: Brand new...
It was affordable - the link to his website is below with detailed list of services. I think it's well worth it because I couldn't afford the respray and it is looking like new!!

Re: Nearside Front CV Boot
Hi guys, got the MOT refusal paper, and it says:
Nearside steering rack gaiter split.
Is it quite a time consuming job? I'd appreciate any help if someone knows the process to change the part...

Nearside Front CV Boot
Hi guys,
Failed MOT yesterday as the n/s front CV Boot was ripped! How would I go about replacing it? I've already bought one from gsf but not sure how to fit it!
Thanks,

Rear Speaker cover clips for a cab
Hi Guys,
Does anyone know what can be used as a replacement for the covers of the rear speaker? Or even better the part number so I can order them?
The ones I had broke and now that panel is coming off and looks V. untidy.
Thanks,
BSingh.

Re: Dismantling the bumpers and mirrors
Sorry, I meant removing them from the vehicle... Is it the same procedure (apart from the indicators) for the back bumper? Does the plastic centre piece on the bumper need to be removed? If I do manage to break it where can I get a spare (just in case)! Thanks for your help guys, much appreciated :)
