Drove it in lots of rain and floods and the doors stayed firmly in place!

had you left them at home just to be sure?
Gaffer taped em on and climbed in thru the sunroof
Guessing you got yerself a bargain against main dealer price on that then!
Not got round to having a proper investigate yet, always seems to be raining when I want to go and do something on the car!
For reference, is an easy enough task to replace one?
So, the markers on the knobs are as bright as they are gonna be? Still prefer to the Tippex originals.
No, it is not so easy. The fabric on top ( where your bum sits) creases they are held in place by metal rings as there are 3-4mm dia bars running though the foam. Getting them off is easy. The heating element is stuck on to the foam.so care may be needed if you have to remove your old one so as not to rip the foam. Getting the fabric back on is a bit of a wrestle. I used 2 long nose pliers. One to hold the ring in place and the other to close it. But the result well worth the effort. 🔥
Is there a resistor in there? If there is measure it with a dvm! And fit fit open with a lower value, should brighten em up a bit
Bin the rings and use small cable ties instead.
I reckon so, unless a brighter bulb can be sourced. As you say though, better than tippex! :lol:So, the markers on the knobs are as bright as they are gonna be? Still prefer to the Tippex originals.
I've got one too and they're an excellent bit of kit. Needed to fit a CB for my Northants response stuff and this is by far the best way to mount the aerial.fitted a teddywood 1 antenna bracket and fed the cable through to were the cb will be mounted!
and changed the oil separator for the bmw one.
thanks for the bracket eddie there brill !!!

Haven't got it back yet mate, Diesel Do and I are going down with all his tools some time next week to have another crack at it. We've got a better idea of how we're going to tackle it once we have a new booster pump - as detailed in my other cooling discussion thread .
take a gallon of petrol with you just in case.
TIWM forgot that last time! Couldn't believe it!
