^ thanks James.
Stuck my new rims on today that a very nice chap dropped off for me yesterday.
Cheers Vilguy, top banana :cool:
Think it looks rather tasty myself :D

So finally got round to taking the door trim off to have a look and it appears somebody had removed lower front glass guide . I'm guessing it had bunched up and was grabbing the glass. Is it available seperately ?
Also, I've got to do heater matrix o rings which I've read up on and took panels off to have a look.
Doesn't look too much of an issue to do but wondered if o rings need any lube and I'm guessing the ali pipes move freely once screw is undone ?

O rings are simple to do just go on YouTube n follow the tutorial do your self a favour and go by a 1ft long Philips from tool station, you will thank me afterwards
 
Hi, there is a How To guide at the top of the page on O rings, really are simple to do. Did mine in about an hour, as Dave mentions you will require a long screwdriver to reach screw and I found it easier to get the wife to wiggle my pipes in the engine bay when sliding out pipes to get to O rings and also when re installing them.
 
Thanks guys. Had looked at the vids and the how to on here.
Any lube or just coolant on the rings for assembly?

Might do mine, not that they are leaking, if I can borrow her to wiggle my pipes:oops::D
 
wriggerling pipes n playing with rings. you did actually type that out loud for all to read!!!! form a que to borrow his missis
 
Yes gentlemen you may borrow the wife to wiggle your pipes, she will be wearing latex gloves as not to get oil under her finger nails plus I don't know where you lot have been, now do you require her in fetching overalls or the usuall stockings and basque, for a few quid she may blow through your pipes to get rid of your coolant too.
