Oh a vice - what i wouldn't do for a vice, beats mole grips and a g-clamp

Mr Noisy · Dec 19, 2012

Defo get a vice!!

Rob, yours looks fabulous btw, very heavy duty, and does it rotate?!

GreenHornet · Dec 19, 2012

Yeah it does, you can see the lock at the side, although he probably has a remote control for that...............

My vice is hiding under junk at the moment :lol:

your work shops nearly as clean as your disco rob!!

Mr Noisy · Dec 19, 2012

No I meant does it rotate about the horizontal axis, which is a pretty rare feature!

Rob's workshop is quite exceptional just like his disco!

Rammstein posters - cool

Sound system - cool

Rammstein stickers - made 'em myself

Mr Noisy · Dec 22, 2012

I honestly can't believe you've had your disco for so long and not had the urge to get muddy!!

Paulmitchell1984 · Dec 22, 2012

have i missed th epart where d2 wipers were fitted or is this to come? are they a straight swap? any improvement over standard

Mr Noisy · Dec 22, 2012

Apart from the fact that the d2 blades are OEM fit and therefore expensive, they do look a lot nicer!

I fit Bosch aero retrofit at approx £6 each which is similar to what britpart sell d2 blades for iirc.

It does get a little bit muddy (for me) but I dread the thought of soggy **** rotting my chassis as it sits on the drive.

Before anybody says, yes I have heard of a jet wash.

No - I've missed that bit.

I'm sorting the order of the posts out by sorting my photos on the laptop by date instead of name. Playing spot the difference from the previous photos! I've just trawled the last few posts and this is their first appearance so it's about the right era! Yes, it's a straight swap but no noticable difference from original. The only "blip" is the bonnet touches the arm if you open the bonnet with the wipers on. It's only a mil or so on the driver's side and could probably be adjusted out.

Much better looking than standard.

I think I paid a tenner (ish) for a fullt set of blades posted.

Really inspiring thread and have you have some real ingenious modifications.....

Makes me want to purchase a welder and make some stuff myself - anyone know where I can purchase some skill, some knowledge and some patience?
