the one off the back has gone, monkeys still there though plugging a tow bar hole untill i can get a new rear bumper, the oops sticker is pretty good on the speed bumps by here though always gets a giggle as i cringe at the splitter dragging up them being stared at by pedestrians haha

ahhhh yeah its been in a couple of times since getting it, just hadnt been loved by the previous owner and im not overly mechanical... i can do the bare essentials but nothing too much so it in a couple of times to get a few things done and looked over. seemed to do a pretty sound job if im honest? and a good price.
it does i agree kizza, was planning on waiting till some fell into my lap... it hasnt happened
thanks for your honesty flybikes i guess

Redone headling and pillars



now heres where i encountered some problems;
the rear seat female seat to chassis connections on my new rear seats look like this:



and the supposed male chassis to seat:




i am wondering if there are 2 types of rear seat connectors and if they could be interchanged?

also whoever put the front buckets in before me rounded off one of the torx screws- GREAT so here are the fronts:





progress painfully halted by having knee surgery and being none weight baring for 6 weeks!

thanks for reading!
