Great work Wasim! Hard to appreciate the effort if you haven’t done it once or twice or….several times!
You’ll have to take on another project shortly 😊

You’re doing a great job Rob. Plenty of patience happening there, keep it up -then you can start at the other end again 😁

Here’s another option, drill a couple of 1/2” holes under the scuff plates, block off sill drain holes fill sills with used engine oil. Unblock drain holes and drain oil into containers (not on lawn or driveway!) then park in garage with flattened cartons underneath drain holes for next week. Voila! Sorta like where the engine or gearbox leaks cover the underneath of your car, no rust there!

Hey Lazlo your local sheet metal shop will be able to fold some brackets out of stainless using one of your originals. The brackets will be plenty strong enough to keep your visor in place because the visor is held captive in the gutter by the brackets and the chrome band should stop it bending in the middle.

Gidday John, I’m sorry I’ve passed the manifolds on to Rob (ardiesse) on the Fb/Ek forum. My bad, maybe if you check with him he might be able to help you. I think Alzheimer’s has got me! Mark

When I used a generic rubber length for my boot seal it took some adjusting of the boot lid to get it seal properly. I locked myself in the boot to check it, that was fun!
Don’t forget to put the seal up the right way, which I think is the pointy part of the profile facing towards outer lip of the channel. Sorry if you already know this but it had to be said. Good luck Vern.
