I don't think this is the Haldex, sounds more drive shaft or propshaft to me...

The exhaust trims are held on at 3 points bud, 2 underneath and easy to access, the 3rd is at the top but the exhaust pipe restricts the access to that one... LED headlight bulbs are a straight swap, LED daylight running lights in the bumper are ignition live and the boot lighting is just plugged into...

Welcome along Ed...

Dents, yes they do come out if you get the right people to do it, had mine done today and they make it look easy. He had so many bendy shaped and bent metal tools it was unreal, kind of resembled what I can only image to be lizzard-t bottom fetish drawer...

Small update. Had 4 minor dents removed today using PDR. Over the moon, cost me 220 and can't even see them now so we'll chuffed...

Before and after of a couple of them...

Glad your pleased bud, 2 light coats then a wet coat and your sorted. You can always flat back with 2000 grit wet and dry then polish to a mirror finish... another skill you have learnt young man ...

Not been on much as been so manic at work. But, all of a sudden and no warning I have condensation in my nearside headlight quite badly. Been searching online and first point of call will be to check the drain holes but can't for the life of me fins an image of where they are to check if they're blocked....

Totally agree Mr T...

This is what I use whenever I do my own work bud, tried a few different ones and always go for this now...

Results...

Haha, I've heard through the grapevine they're struggling now , I always treat staff with respect and dignity. Never ball and shout, we are all human and all make mistakes. Most of the staff from the last place want to follow me to where I am now haha... about the same distance bud, just north instead...

July yes, just not had a chance to do much more, on another contract now building the infrastructure for another civil engineering firm...

I only had the repeater surrounds made bud and bought the tinted repeaters to contrast the surrounds... so, grizzly Adams then yeah haha......

Edited just to keep you happy my northern friend ...

You ok......

Well, a little update to the side repeaters surrounds I had made...



I have now had some of these tailgate protectors made for the facelift...
They just need some proper polishing, will make brushed if anyone wanted one... 1.2mm polished stainless with edge trim......
