Strut brace, Nice. What did you use to relocate your tank in the end?

Spot on there Tim

6 cable ties and some inginuity. I did have a steel bracket, but it wasnt very good, so I drilled a hole in the bottom of the coolant tank support, and that allowed me to get it nice and tight into where it needed to be!

And something else new

Tigerseal appears to be the way forward for mounting rear view mirrors!

Oh my good gosh, when I first seen that pic Alex, I thought there was a massive gun shot type hole in your windscreen lol

I've love the option of rain sensors, but it'll never happen.

What's next? Do tell?

LOL love it!

The rain sensor is only being put in behind the ceramic spot for now, as the windscreen isnt a rain sensor one, so it will be replaced when it breaks with a rain sensor one so I can take full advantage. Ill get all the wiring in place though so its ready!

Next is mount the new black mirror and get the wiring all sorted out

Then a few more new additions......

Its all I had to hand at the time

Ill get some black ones sometime soon to neaten it up!

Indeed I did

Ye was a doddle. Had a bit of difficulty getting one of the top mount bolts out, as the nut stamped into the mount decided to come loose, so it was a molegrip job! But all turned at well in the end
