Photobucket seems to be down so photos later. Photos now added

This morning before going to the car to fix the exhaust leak I though I'd look at why one of the remote on the keys didn't work.

I found it was down to the switch on the board was jammed in the one position. Took the switch apart and bent the metal surround and that sorted it.

When I got there I sorted the exhaust leaks, cleaned the chrome tip, you have to have a clean tip, but you can't see as it to far up the bumper.

You can see how short the mid section it here.

I checked the lights, OSF side light looked like one of those fancy light bulbs with the low glow elements.

There was a bulb out on the OSR and when removing the cluster I found breaker marking under the unit.

The short rubber return fuel line in above the rail looks like it could do with replacing.
