Andrew.

Bit more than an afternoon in that one methinks! :)

I'm going to chase up something to fix my clutch slave - be it a new one or some kind of reco, if that's possible. I'm getting a light clutch and stuck in neutral sometimes, so I need to fix mine up.

UA I'm not sure your street is going to fit all of these 5's! :shock:

Hey guys do you mind if I tag along? I've helped Geoff out with his car a little bit but I'm no guru. Just interested to learn!

And Wayne's now crowing about getting his SE windblocker done as well! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ahah!

Well the SE unit does have speakers. That would interest me more than the wind protection around the gonads (which is the only place the windblocker protects).

HOWEVER...JBT if you look at a well placed windblocker in a car with style bars, you will see it looks a lot better. That gap under the bars is removed.

Jules, you're clutching at straws here. Put the heater on for the gonads, turn up the stereo volume or get headrest speakers and who cares about the gap :P.
