Re: Replace wiper motor for 2speed.
a further possibility is to install a Lucas 2-speed wiper washer switch from a rover. Does not look to bad in the dashboard and you can connect a washer pump too.

Re: Seat foam replacement
sorry, can not give any advise. I replaced the "old" straps, better then nothing. Might be better with new ones. When i first changed from straps to rubber diaphragm i was surprised about the comfort, and thought this is the best. But one year later i am something disappointed over the lif...

Re: Seat foam replacement
about one year later with a 90 kg driver it looks like this. 2 retaining holes peeled off, 2 others will do next time....
now replaced with the old seat straps. Fist i was surprised about the comfort, but it did not take a long time in my case.

Re: gearbox crossmenber attachment
thanks for your tips
will try to get the suitable thread taps and screws.
I agree with you that there should not be metric threads. And no one should fit wrong sized screws.
I have no problem with metric screw and nut fixings as a replacement

Fixed the 1098 gearbox to the engine and tried to install both with the gearbox crossmember installed. No change. Gave up in th...

Re: gearbox crossmenber attachment
thanks again for your posts What's interesting is there are no holes I can see, almost like the bolts on that side were for effect only thats what i am wondering about too.

Place the window from inside the car with the string showing to outside and let it hold by a assistant. pull the string fron outside to lift the flange of the rubber se...
