Oh I read you refurbished them, I wish I cleaned my wheels and they looked refurbed, as yours do!
on my quest to find the source of the water in the boot took out the tailgate plastic trim;
SURPRISE!!! this is why the rear demister isn't working.
on the outlined area with the glass up
at least this repair will be easy.
A little bit of solder should soon sort that!!

sure thing, but I live on the 5th floor and only have a 10m extension cord, don't want to ask the ground floor neighbour for power socket, he is a "grumpy old fart" so it will have to wait till I drop a visit to the parents

thought about it but not worth going to bye one for one time job,
the heater hasn't worked for 6 years so it can wait for a couple of month more

Thanks mate, just need to clean all the polish from the previous owners from the black trim, plus its mondo at the moment, just waiting for Austens dad to sort me out, then we'll be rolling
Mines mostly mondo as i much prefer the way it drives. Where did u get the bulds then?
