Cool

Ian,

You only need a flat space, A jack and two axle stands to make the car safe to do this change. Took me about two hours the first time, but I was double checking everything... it would be quicker a second time.

Be careful with the join to the backbox, the gasket there may require replacement, depending on it's condition.
