Hey Paul just checked with my dash eyebrow it measures 15" across, and i've got 3/4" between dails also. So l guess you may have drilled you holes in the wrong location?? Just a thought whats the distance from the bottom of either the left or right dial holes to the bottom of dash. l get a...

l think what oliver did was get some steel/stainless angle the length of the sill. From under the car position the sill closest to the outside edge and drill and screw from above. Use self drill countersink screws. This will clamp the body(sill) to the steel underneath. The rubber mat on the door th...

Sorry to here that mate. Will defo need to be pulled and strip it, split the case to find out what's gone wrong. Fingers crossed not to much damage is done.

Mike i've just bought 2 aero mirrors from Stoddard, really pleased with them. Got stung on the customs and vat on entry to uk, so by the time you pay the duties and shipping works out the same as Roger b's. If you want to keep them door mounted most only fitted them to the drivers side as you only j...

Paul,
you either take some of the door bottom to match the sill or sand back the sill to match the door. If only slight taking of the door would be easier. What colour have you gone for..

Ger is right use the beetle steering wheel same as pictured. Took mine through the IVA a few months ago so if you want to pick my brains go ahead. Make sure you use the later type as it is padded and the early type are solid. You need 2 crumple zones in the steering system. Don't panic you should ha...

Hi paul,
i've got the switch you need and wiring etc, give me a call 07721688475 May have a few more bits for the IVA for you.

Are you running 4/5 stud????

Gerry

Thats an intresting read, will take some photos and do something similar to help others preping for the test. Will keep you up dated.

Regards

Gerry , l take it you mean door mirrors, nothing as yet as Pete from Chesil is posting me one up, failing that will just take a trip to Europa and buy one thats Iva compatable as l will be fitting my own after the test. The rear veiw mirror does need to have rubber around the edge though. Finally go...

Thanks Ger. Dropped a boo boo with the IVA application, so anyone filling in your application make sure you put the power output in k/watts and not bhp. If you know your brake horse power simply x by 1.34 and that gives you your power in kwatts. Still waiting for the test date, been told by VOSA the...

Go on throw them across the floor and stamp on them, sure will make you feel better, just don't forget to order new ones.

Sorry mate just had to do it, it made me tickle. We have all been there at some point, can't advise any either to help you out. Goodluck

Hi to all builders (car), here is a list of recomendations from Chesil to get through the IVA. A list of DOES 1, If no steering lock, then will need to fit an immobiliser by a qualified fitter. Will need to show certificate from govening body at the time of test. Note this is not currently required....
