Re: BLOWN HEAD GASKET - AAARGH!!!

Thanks Rob, will add a post when I get hold of a local mechanic and he gives me the bad news. Hi, did you manage to find a local mechanic to look at it? Where in South Wales are you? There's an independent mechanic in Pontypool that I've used to do cam belts and other bits & pieces on my TF. I'm ha...

Re: Cup Holders

Thanks Rob :thumbsu: The dash support is hidden behind a bit of thin black plastic (the bottom liner of an Aldi shopping bag to be precise!). I never actually got around to doing a how-to, although did take pics of the work in progress. It wouldn't take me long to add a bit of text to the pics so wi...

Re: Rectangular plastic on dash passenger side of TF?

Oh and the passenger footwell is where I've got my active sub located, it's not a perfect fit and leaves a bit of a lump in the covering carpet, but it's out of the way enough not to be an inconvenience to passengers

Excuse the sponge(!), but this is the space available once you remove the air bag blanking plate and polystyrene. http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa247/Fast_Jan/Cup%20Holdet/2013-05-26181713_zps4d10fd5b.jpg This is what a few people have done with theirs (I think it's an R25 tray) http://www.csmg...

Re: Cup Holders

I came up with an alternative cup holder a few months ago and have been using it successfully throughout the summer. It's still in need of refining aesthetically, but it does the job surprisingly well :) Perhaps I'll refine it over winter - though more likely it'll still be the same come next summer...

Wales Weekender - A Request

Did anyone who attended the Wales Weekender happen to take any pics of Jerrys TF in the Oval Basin? X-Power Grey reg PL02... He was parked towards the bottom end on the right hand side but I'm not sure who was parked up near to him.
