Our Sparco seat rails and Scorpion cat back exhaust turned up today, so after saying i wouldn't i couldn't help myself and i assembled the seats, :rasp:
Since there is going to be 3 of us driving the car we have got an ajustable drivers rail, but just a fixed passengers.

The exhaust will have to wait for a drier day though.

 

[kevo66]

Good work mate, Im still on taxi duty for the bird otherwise I would've been down!

 

[ashw831]

[Greeny.]

Looking good guys, out of interesting how much was the subframe and where you get it from?

any chance you could get me some my side windows are getting cut out when the car gets painted so would be an ideal time to do them if you could help me out

[Tony Hunter]

Very,think I paid nearly £50 for a sheet to do our own,cut it al out then realised it was only 3mm(yes I did swear a lot) .

Will let you know how we get on matey!!
They said will defo be able to do all 4 side windows..... and to take them the rear and they will have a lookski and see what they can do but we are hopeful!!!!!
even if it is a fail... it is only £33 quid at the end of the day

 

[ashw831]

did you do the rear screen yourself as well? if you did how did you do it?

 

[Bazzon]

As both me and Tony said in the other thread, we think you will struggle to do the rear out of sheet polcarb.

The people that cut our side windows said they would try, but due to the rear screen having Curvature in both planes its nearly impossible it has to be formed.

By all means try, but it was just easier to buy the P4P one for us than mess around with it.

 

[Tony Hunter]

did you do the rear screen yourself as well? if you did how did you do it?

We ended up just dong the front windows for now,cost main factor,others will be changed as and when,damaged etc.

Anyway the car is light enough as it is 850kg dry.

Morning Kev,are they copying the standard window pattern or are you going to put them in the dip where the rubber used to be,I cut mine to do the latter,but didn't use them as they were 3mm.

They are using the glass as a template for it as far as i know.... that not a good idea? i have added 4cm on to the bottom to allow it in to the top of the door so we can put a bolt under it to hold it up. what you think Tony?

 

[kevo66]

Yeah, std template Tony. Going to insert the fronts into the normal location and ust use a bolt to secure or fab a bracket.

Rears were just going to be bonded in. Any tips on fitting those?

 

[Jay Payne]

we havent done the rears but when we do we will probably use a local windscreen place

You will find a hole that is in a perfect place,as I said before I used a nut and bolt with a big washer to hold it in place.(it's in the middle) can't

find pics sorry.

Oh and then we used a piece of cut off door seal on the inside along the top to make it look tidy and it stops the window rattling about.
