Warranty work so not a lot of choice but I'll tell them not to bother with a valet next time!
ah thanks for that.. I will do. replacement window arrived so planning to fit tomorrow. So maybe I will need to re-prime.

I found some on the outside of my rear screen after the pop top was fitted. Didn’t notice until weeks after, when they became rust dots all over the glass.
I used one of those scrapers that you put a Stanley knife blade into.

Black trapezoid side bars fitted bought from Vee Dub transporters, look good now I’ve finally got them on but have to say that the fitting instructional video which they give you is incorrect, misleading and a total waste of time. Ended up working it out for myself by trial and error as to which way things fitted. Just wish I’d read the comments to the video before attempting to follow it.
Have you been rock-crawling again or is that just a consequence of those boggin Glaswegian roads?
Agreed to an Up-plating on my T28 to 3100kg. They would go to 3200kg if I installed 'air' in the rear, I'll live without the extra 100kg I feel!
