, and they look very well made..
Thanks Simon for dropping them off at your sisters, saved me a long journey ,,, just need to find some time to fit them now

I've just found some time to fit these, cant believe its taken me this long!!
Simon said he would e/mail fitting instructions but must have forgot and I forgot to chase up...So does anyone have any fitting instructions or any advice on fitting these hoops??
Thanks

I`ve fitted mine but they are a pain to fit and IMHO i`d get Simon to fit them.
There are a few pic`s on my Project thread

Thanks Monty,
Had a look at your pics they should be useful ,, didn't realise they were such a pain to fit, don't mind a bit of cutting but welding I cant do.
can they be fitted without welding?
My car will be of the road/sorn until next year so hoping to do a few jobs over the winter,,, driving down for Simon to fit is not an option as much as I wish I could

Simon has sent me fitting instructions today and they look very involving.....so I am now thinking of waiting for when the car is back on the road then driving down to Simon for a professional job
I can e/mail the instructions to anyone who needs them

Scott, I haven't seen Simon on the site for ages. Your best hope is if someone has one they haven't fitted yet, they might want to sell it. Good luck with your search.
Could the 'Hokey-Cokey' actually be what it's all about?

Are you after a short marriage or something? You'll be in trouble with Kim if she ever finds out how much you've paid.

No - he's obviously concerned for the safety of his bride-to-be and wants a long life

funny you should say that, she happened to be peering over my shoulder when I posted that, "since when, you never said, how much, why?" was the reply
