The treatment / finish on the metal part of the TRD mounts is very poor, my previous set rusted within a year. The rust is only light, but annoying given the price and age. Worth painting the metal bits with Hammerite or similar before fitting....

I offered it up to the car, but it looked like it'd need more than a slight trim on the engine lid... All the bends are completely unnecessary on an NA, so I've ordered the other model with the round bar for the rear. Not as good looking as the oval one, but much more functional.

Maybe a desktop type one (A5 ish landscape)?

I missed out last time , certainly up for whatever's created this time

If there are several types, I'll have (at least) one of each

Get well soon Bill

Yup, mine arrived today, along with the invoice.

Thanks

Mine arrived safely today too, thank you

Now to add fitting it to the list of things to fit to leaky....

Cheers,

Are they coming straight to us, or to you first?

I paid £80 a side from Toyota last week for T-Bar seals... Seemed quite reasonable to me!

Thanks. I fitted a new drivers side seal this morning as per the BGB.... fingers crossed that it does the trick

Cheers,
Jon

I'm going to fit a pair of new T-bar seals this weekend, as my white Mk1 is leaking like a seive since I removed and re-fitted the seals to get the windscreen fixed. Looking at the BGB, the only place requiring sealant, is inside the 3 retainers on each side of the roof. Is this correct? Thanks, Jon

What are the rules on the warranty?

The Janspeed one stated that it had to be fitted by an approved dealer, and inspected on a yearly basis (with evidence!).

Most of us will fit these ourselves, does this void the warranty?

Thanks,
Jon

I wasn't aware of that! I've got one order from Japan at the moment, I guess it'll be a few weeks before it arrives, I'll have a look at it then if you've not found out before.

Great news.

While I'm happy to pay up straight away, you've not told us HOW to pay you...

What's your Paypal e-mail address?

I can also pay via bank xfer, if you pm me your bank details.

Regards,
Jon

I've managed to find an internet connection on holiday!

How do I pay my deposit? Paypal I assume? Payable to what address?

Please pm me details of how to pay (I'm happy to do a bank transfer for the full amount).

Regards,
Jon

Please add me onto the list for a Mk1b exhaust + Mk1 Gasket kit.

I'm off on holiday Saturday morning ~9am, so if you need a deposit before then, please contact me soon!

So's polishing your exhaust pipe, but most of us still do it

If I had the spare time, it's something I'd have a go at. Not sure I've got the patience or a steady enough hand though.

It's a hobby, some of us do track days, some of us re-build our cars etc... At least he's got something to show for it when he's finished.

That is superb.

Clumsy Fingers and limited skills my $%£$

I've not got much experiece with gearboxes, but it sounds like this is a gearbox out job, in which case fitting a 2nd hand unit is probably the cheapest option.

I'm sure someone with more gearbox knowledge will be along shortly....
