Can't wait for you to be on the road Andy. Sorry to hear about the family situation. If you need anything to help with the IVA, although loads of my trim worked loose, I've still got it all in the garage!

Thanks mate
appreciate your offer of help, I really do

Thing is tho...My car is totally finished & IMO ready for its IVA test, when I go into the garage now I don,t even touch it really, tho I did reverse it out of the garage the other day JUST so I could give the garage a tidy up, did that & then just drove the Roadster back in & locked up ....didn,t touch the car , I did go thru a period of "looking" for things to do to it, but now ...nothing.

Its funny that .....its amazing how things start to "work loose" after a test

1 question tho ..... did you cover in the underside of the scuttle to prevent wandering hands poking about under the dash ? if so, what or how did you do it ?
I,ve done mine but TBH i,m not impressed with it really, it appears it,ll "work loose" at some point

cheers

ey up bud,

Iv just done mine tonight with some flat grp i cut from some knackered side panels, edge trimmed it and stuck a bit of fake leather shite on it. The edge trimmed edge iv butted up to the dash and silkaflexed it. I did it with the scuttle fitted to the car though, and me bcks killing me now

if its ok to come and get those stamps this weekend sometime (desperate as i want to book iva soon, and i know ur upto your neck) il bring some flat sheets of grp down for you

I made some crude aluminium plates (passenger side only) badly covered them with boot carpet. Driver side cables were just tidied up. Oddly enough passenger side plates are still there. In the end decided it did make better job.

Nathan...

I,ve done similar, used a carpet tile ( I know it sounds yuck ), scored a bend line into it & used velcro to attach it to the back of the dash panel & to the top rail of the chassis, it does the job but being honest...I don,t like it .

Yes of course you can pop over for the stamp set, the box is still in my car( daily driver) from the other day when I missed you, let me know when would be good for you

Deezee....
sounds similar to what I,ve done in the placement, but with a carpet tile as I was thinking "no sharp edges" etc ....mine just seems a bit naff

I,ll have a go at making it better somehow

cheers
