Have narrowed down my bonnet search to this, which I <could> have before the end of next week......

Question: How hard would it be to fit myself ?
Any ideas of cost if I took it to a garage to fit?

Im sure if you was to give a few WMI members a drink they would help you fit it (dont fit it yourself, you drop it you will cry)

It's doable with 2 people but ideally you'd want 3 people to fit it.

its 12kgs lighter than the steel one thats already fitted, just dont think i could get it into the car to bring down - would be a week on saturday 0121, that id be able to get it.

Maybe I could bribe you and josh to visit me (maybe I should have a BBQ, its my turn anyways) though i dont do BBQs, but would pay out on a chippy supper for all who attended, will chat with helen, make sure nothing planned.

Just to have an idea, would anyone be interested in a chippy supper BBQ style house party say on Saturday 7th May ??

Venue would be my house, in Telford.

I would be willing to help. Telford isn't that far really. It really is just a case of making sure there's enough men to carefully and slowly lift the weight of the bonnets.

Cheers to David and the gang at API for looking after me while they did my leaky front main oil seal yesterday.
