He can try. Blocked his number and he doesn't know where I live. I'm sure he could find out if he wants, but it wouldn't be worth his trouble. It wasn't anything dangerous. In fact, quite the opposite. Cut and taped wires inside the trunking. Wires cut short inside junction boxes and the...

At the start where the dash is picked up and flipped over it looks like light reflecting off screw heads. I just slowed it right down and see its rwflection off the corners of the demist slots.

Sorry.

So you used grp? Will that stick to the plastic dash?

No problem .

Yes - just roughen the plastic to create a key. I've found that fibreglass resin sticks to most things - hands, door knobs, kitchen worktops, Z3 dashboards...

Alternator failed on the way to le Mans last year. I think the cause may have been excessive under bonnet heat. I'm making a splitter to divert air around the radiator via a shroud. I think I will probably need some louvres on the bonnet to allow hot air to get out, but that can come later.

The dotted line shows air going through the shroud. The solid lines show the intended air flow.

It may help with air flow into the engine as the air filter entry is in this area as well.
