I think so. I have spare arches for my pre-f/l cab and I think they're also suitable for the pre-f/l 2-door.

No worries mate, pretty sure the arches are cab specific.

Right now I can't say if they're OEM, they came with the car. But I'll check tomorrow. I'm not sure if I'll be selling, since I do need both of them. However, I've also run out of money for the time being, so it could be just what I need. If you can e-mail me about it that'd be good, since that's the only organised place in my world right now, otherwise I'll likely forget.

It's reassuring, since I spent way less than £3600 on something similar to your cab.

I'm currently phoneless, so if you can e-mail me too, I'll let you know what's what tomorrow; if they're gen.OEM and if I'm willing to sell. I do have an o/s/r one, ther other one is n/s/r which means both you and gooner1 can have one, if I decide to sell. I've had a really shite day today, been up since 1am, so I'm not even really sure where I am at the moment. But I'll get back to you both.
