:)

It was good to meet you HG65 - im sure the parts you took away will get you back up and running in no time. ;)
I think any decent local garage should be able to help you and the fact that you have all the parts including a full steering column for reference will make the job fairly straightforward.

You do still need a oem standard sideskirt (cant remember what side) and a ukdm standard side indicator lense for the passenger headlight. Maybe someone one here can help or put up an advert in the wanted section.

Let us know how you get on. :)

Hi vanzep, it was good to meet up with you and I'd just like to say a huge thank you.

I'm really pleased with the parts you were able to supply me with - just need to crack on and get the car fixed! Could you send me the details of the mechanics you recommended?

The side skirt I need is for the passenger side if anyone has one available.

Wish I'd joined Lude Generation years ago - the support, advice and help has been great. :D

Hi Vanzep,

Thanks very much for the info.

Made a mistake regarding the standard side skirt I need - it's actually the driver's side NOT the passenger side!

Will put an advert in the wanted section.

Cheers, HG65.

Hi,

As I'm not very techy minded, could you let me know what the abbreviations oem and ukdm stand for ( I could guess most of the second one!).

Thanks.
