The cut out for this particular strut brace isnt in the right position.

oze30 I have no idea what so ever ........ all I know is when I get round to it, it will be stripped out to save weight.

If your battery is in the boot (front battery tray is empty), then you can reposition the wires by bolting them to the overhanging part of the front tray. You must remove the paint under the bolt and ensure a good electrical connection.
Bring your car to me, and I'll remove every part of the aircon system for you completely free of charge, and dispose of the bits.

How very kind of you to offer Brian :D :D :D

You never know if I get bored of taking bits off and selling them I may take you up on the offer. I doubt it though :mad: What part of the world are you in?
