It works (and fits) perfectly for me, but I do accept that depending on your height/size seat position etc it may not be ideal for everyone.[/quote]

i ran it of battery on Betsy always forgot to switch it off lol

If it works for you thats what matters

Nice place Ian !!!! Just wait till you flood it like i did on mine, thats why i moved it to ontop of the dash!
And trust me you will!!!!! :mrgreen:

mine is ontop of the dash just behind the steering wheel. and i have a permanent live that has it's own switch from the battery

Removed tank.

removed loads of mud from Wales out of guard..
re-painted inside of tank guard..
cleaned petrol tank..

Nearly killed some suicidal idiot in a small 2 door rusty hatchback on the mainroad going through Lyneham.

Parking space out side of the Tesco (on the main road) I was on the other side of the road, did the mirror, signal, mirror, manoeuvre bit and crossed over to go into the space. Meantime suicide jockey in the rust heap decides to take off like a loon... no looksee, no signals and no mirror action, the only reason he didnt get tyre tracks across the roof was me stomping on the brakes.

It's not as if the frontie is'nt obvious. It's big enough to have filled the mirror if it had only looked ffs, the only thing it saw when finally looking out the window was the frontera and I always, out of habit drive with the lights on, day or night (too used to Volvo's and the daytime running light).

Next time I'm just gonna park on top and forget the brakes. Still fuming lol.

dazz im 6ft 4" & 18 stone with size 12 feet , i know your much the same & seeing as theres not as much room behind the wheel in a b as there is in an a id say stick it on the passenger side mate :wink:

good point mate think i will do that cheers

I fitted some LED DRL's. They're wired up to fuse 7 in the engine bay (interior fans) and go on and off when the engine does.

I got them off eBay, CLICK HERE

Hi All

Broke it

............Had an occasional squeak for a day or two, have had a look several time, checked wheel bearings greased shafts checked brakes and calipers oil levels etc and still nothing. Week ago, while driving I thought I could feel a shuddering, haven't driven it since (been to hospital and had a small op on a knee). Today I drove to the post box and the squeal was constant under throttle, running light throttle all was OK. Had a look when I got back and low and behold the rear prop rear UJ has decided to retire, there's a fair bit of play in one of the cups (must have got some serious cr*p in it while laning over Christmas though I have washed and greased it since).

So I'd better get a new UJ, anybody got any ideas where from and how much roughly (mail order would be good)? Had a look on Ebay but didn't see any for an A series 2.8 sport or a Frontera at all, any ideas what else might fit? Changing it's not a problem, I got a spanner or two!!
