right now then, a few things that come in the post today,
one is a bit of a bargin, as it would have been nearly 400 quid new! got it in the sale for 40 quid. That is a new sunroof, the gasket around it would have been 30 quid if you could still get them.

second of all is my new gearbox mount, as I think the old one is practically past it,
and an adjustable tie bar too. ( under the engine)

also my replacement wing mirrors came today, so I took off the trim pieces.

then removed the mirror going to be kept as a spare.

rubbed a bit of Greece around the system, on the new mirror, as these do stiffen up sadly.

also notice the new one, has a painted handle.

then fitted the new mirror and refitted the trims

done the same on the driver side too,
at least I can get shot of this grubby mirror

I did make an tempt to see if I can fit my new replacement sunroof, sadly my fixings on the old unit, are rusted on. so its a case of just building the new one up. but half of the bits are on back order, so it could be months.
