Id bet on six months if you do a really good diy job - thats taking into account the amount of corrosion on you lude is more than small amount of light rust :)

Bummer, have a look on pages 1&3 of the link in my sig to see how it all fits together. Sorry to say, but if its as bad as mine was, your car is probably not safe or roadworthy. :cry:
