Tart indeed
I did make a start myself then as the job progressed I realised just how big a job it is so I had a word with a guy that comes to work who know's a polisher and sent it up to him

Well my mechanic changed it over for me, lets say to the untrained it looks a lot of work, there's a lot going on with it.

Tart indeed
Cheers guys
The alternator may well be in the future as to balance the look up... looking at it I think it may be not to bad to maintain by unbolting some of the brackets to get as much access to it as possible.
