No probs Deano I will be onto It this weekend mate

Well had a good go at some modifications today on the fe with some really good results, got the wiper almost fully set up with all new bracket ready to weld in, also modified and fitted a VS Comodore rear seat...and whilst I was at it I trial fitted a gas strut from the vs as well to the boot lid hinge, so all in all not a bad day and finally getting some stuff done.
Cheers Frankie.

Gee that fits nice. Hey I have been thinking of having an access point at the back but my intention is to see if a 15" diameter wheel will fit from the seat end so that I can house stuff in there hidden. Do you have a measurement for me of how high that opening is? Cos could a space saver wheel be rolled in there or a swing out bracket be made. See this, nice little arrangement here.
