Can I claim that he stole the pot idea from me when I used the car jack to hold mine up during test fitting? :)

Great work, blackster. I'm amazed at how simple that job was.

Nope. I use 2 jacks to hold mine but have found it a bit fiddly, the pots looks really easy to maneuver the cooler on :mrgreen:

what are your hourly rates to help install mine ????? :D


When you have yours let me know and i'll give a hand to mount it. If there are any other sydney SE owners want to make a dodgy day out of it, the more the merry.

Hourly rates, umm beer n pizza and seeing the satisfaction when your SE is transformed.

Oops! Forgot to thank you...

So thanks for that! Install looks great and quite easy to do with a couple of pairs of hands.

Where did you get your cooler from? I've found some on ebay for $100-$120 inc delivery. There's some Jap store in Sydney where you can just walk in and buy the cheapys isn't there?
