Heaters are good, clutch is good... Although the pedal is low, and i swore and growled quite a bit doing the matrix and i say i wouldn't like to do another one any time soon but i also had my wiring to deal with and tidy up, all tidy now though ripped out wires i no longer need, re-routed my wires for my stereo n fan switch and didnt have any screw nuts or bolts left Big Grin

That's shit mate I still need to swap all the wishbones and hubs on the 6 as the wheel bearing and wishbone bushes are f*cked Sad looks like some nice member on .net has shafted me on them wishbones off jammapic aswell as we had agreed on £40 and I arrange a courier was wateing for payment details and get a message saying he's got someone else who has offerd him more money and to up my bid Sad WTF

You got them pipes fitted for the heaters yet?

That's a shitter about the clutch bud but at least you now know your clutch is good for all those future horsesSmile
Need a hand getting my matrix done bud and as you've already done one..... lol R45 said he will also help.
Plenty of bacon/sausage sandwiches and tea/coffee/beer/red bull/monster energy available Smile

im good at heater matrix changes, it would probly involve an angle grinder though haha

Clutch arm wasn't in the right position but was seized when we done the clutch, even with heat it was a bitch to move and then didnt go back to the original position so i only had 3 inches of pedal so after more heat, drill, saw chizel and hammer finally got it off Smile
