Being British is about driving in a German car to an Irish pub for a Belgian
beer, then travelling home, grabbing an Indian curry or a Turkish kebab on
the way, to sit on Swedish furniture and watch American shows on a Japanese
TV.

hello mate if the closing panel needs replacing than chances are that the heater channel needs replacing, they rot from the inside out. you cant really do a closing panel with out taking the body of  and when you do that you normally find that it needs a lot more than just that replacing. spend most of my life welding these cars up. cheers rob |
