right ive drilled holes etc for my lights now, ive also asked a coulpe of locosters this but thought i would put it to others.
Im concerned that the lines on the glass lamps are not perfect, as in level vertical and horizontal, do they have to be perfectly level or as mine are a bugs di(k out. And i mean a bugs whisper, not loads.

If you're that close you'll be OK. I did mine by eye.

Adrian, do you do mot's. Once its all road worthy i would like a ride out, and that would be a good shake down.


adithorp - 18/1/09 at 09:57 PM

Unfortunatly not mate.

ah well, did you get an mot first


adithorp - 18/1/09 at 10:15 PM

No, didn't mot first. Didn't see the point as I could run through it anyway apart from the brake test (not the same as SVA brake test anyway) and emmisions and I also ran out of time. If you do go for one, get them to just go through the motions and not actually log it onto the test computer; once on the system it needs test every 12 months.

It's not your average frog though...It's one of those highly toxic South American frogs that you shouldn't mess with!
