Ray, I almost just pissed myself laughing at that!!

I actually think it is a good idea, but given my (our) experience with CV boots here I prefer not to see or think of them. At least you have a universal boot around for a roadside spare just in case. :wink:

Thank you for the comments.

I only fitted the telescopic variety because of the position of the steel tube in relation to the hole. If yours is central, and round, as it passes through the wing, or if adjustments can be made with the arch liner off to make it central, and lower it down a bit, then the flat grommet will be perfect.

I haven’t seen under the wing but it might just be a matter of moving a bracket.

Right, I've got 20 confirmed (so far) and will place the order on Saturday - because if i don't specify a date, there's bound to be someone who will want to order one on Sunday!

1. Dapinky
2. Dave Ed
3. Chris.t
4. mickmick
5. Paul.P
6. Enright
7. SBK
8. Sheprob
9. paulwatkins

It stands as 5 for the USA (Algirdas to go in the coffin) - :oops: sounds bad without the apropriate apostrophe :wink:

Andrew has offered to take delivery of the other 3 for USA (unless postage is cheap enough anyway).

The rest to go out either by post or for collection at Donny.

WE HAVE ANOTHER PLAN HERE!
Dave

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it


...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

Steve, did say they have a few, but he gan get them in multiples of 5 at a time and didn't see much problem with obtaining a larger quantity.

As for tracking down the supplier, anyone know a detective? :-D

Anyway, He's got more than 1, so I'm okay :wink:
