Default Not quite upto ABW standards
But I was happy

Should have taken an hour but it turned into 2

Thanks to Supreme the steel plate which Steve kindly supplied me AGAIN was returned painted white



Just needed to fix it over this



I was going to use the original bolts from the sunroof but decided it was going to be fiddly to drill out the holes inline.

So a ring of Metal Glue and a ring of Sikafles to ensure no leaks is applied





Then on with plate and play with the new rivet gun and all is done









JOB DONE
