James - yeah, they arent expensive to buy and just waiting to get my other car bk so I can give it a try. Oh and buy sum torque wrenches etc. Still nervous - done umpteen engine swaps but still cautious about getting it wrong and bending everything!!
Afew more updates. Fitted the headlight, pretty easy, just fiddley to get to having to take bumper off etc. The difference it made is huge, better than the other one I have that I thought was good!
Was surprised how clean the car was behind there.
You can see the difference in the two units due to water ingress...
...and the same on the metal contacts.
A altho my new number plates are the new style 'narrow' font so think they may look weird. Then again, for £5 a pair i'm not guna get too fussy.
That'll do for today.
Some priorities to keep me busy over the next few weeks seem to be cambelt, exhaust blowing, wheel balancing, tail light bulb. Then onto a polish and engine clean once I drop the oil and then may consider a 2" drop. Probs keeping the standard wheels, just some lower profile tyres if/wen I come across them.
Wouldnt mind a spare 14" alloy tho if anyone has one lying around?
Oh I have a horn missing! Just realised!
