🎱 fitted 😎👌 Drilled 12mm x 35mm deep, a really hard/jammed fit on stick = not moving!! Feels real smooth, and the 'aged, yellow ivory' tone [of the white] is quite mellow.... £5 well spent 🥳 OVIMOR

This looks the dog's danglies, I have to say. Missed out on a 47k 1.6 Getz a few weeks back. 'You snooze...you lose' The 1.4 is a 'screamer - shortstroke' = the 1.6 block size but different crank. Motoring press seemed to praise the 'freerevving' nature, Vs 1.6 😉 ... mine goes like 'stabbed rat' 🚙💨 OVIMOR

My drilling/b&d pillar set-up is only 3/8" 😕. I clamped a 'spare'(knackered) 13MM into the drill chuck... bit wobbly TBH 🤦 I bit the bullet and popped £10 delivered, on a Milwaukee 13MM n.o.s. key chuck, screw in 1/2"*20. Coming soon. Having this cobbled up pillar will make all my DIY holes So.So.Soo much easier 👌 OVIMOR

The black ball is wrong thread & the threaded section of stick is right up to top, inside factory knob 😕 I'm drilling out the black ball (12mm) and cutting the threaded top off the stick = press ball on/lower height 👌. I have a fair assortment of drill bits, a box set up to 10.... no 12 🙄 OVIMOR

It seems that 'earlier' Getz had a temp dial gauge... Mine, sadly, has only the 'beancounters delight' = Idiot light😕 .... Spunking £4 on this set up >>> .... And following this Utoober >>> I'm hoping to get a 'ballpark' "is it TOO HOT / NOT?" on the dash display. Sensor is to be located at the root of the 'inflow(hottest) heaterhose', near head/thermostat housing. Must be better than nothing 🤔 Will post up my shenanigans 🛠️🤦 OVIMOR

The rear hatch lip [placcie panel] has lost the lakka.... Very tatty. Painted with the matte black, same as wheel backs... Used a 1" brush but finish is $hite 😧. Will revisit this using a foam roller [... lesson learned 👌] Version.2 >>>>> Be assured, this is WAYY better than the lakka peel/scabby finish originally 😮 OVIMOR
