Mince, you do not want to know, believe me.
Do not forget that Dolf in one of the TOP Panel Beaters/Body Repair Shops in Port Elizabeth.
Now do you see why I said that.??
What can I say, I am a sucker for punishment.
Still want to know though

Dolf,
Thanks for the Pics, now I know how they get to spray the area behind the rear window vent.
Was there any reason why you took out the piece from the back seat side as opposed to the bottom plate in the engine bay.

i have had the pleasure of seeing the progress in person, and believe me it's painstakingly precise and absolutely bloody brilliant !
once this bug is done it will be better than the day it left the factory
