You're making very good progress there. Well done. Shame about the screen though. Got a couple of non laminated ones here, but there's a few scratches on them.  |

im not sure, are the laminated and non laminated the same thickness? would be worth buying one from moss, they are around 40 squids, suppose im not in that much of a rush just a pain rely  |

put rusty in for the mot today and it failed on some silly things gutted as hell anyhow got a list to work to and should be back in for the next one in 10 days, was good to have a drive tho gtbh, was told that the rear brakes where giving 45 on the back when it should be giving 25 i beleve, does anyone now if there is some kind of bias valve or pressure regulator for the brakes in the lines? |

If i knew the exact age of the car i could probably work out what braking system it should have. I'm thinking that maybe the wrong rear brake cylinders have been fitted.  |

think ill decide on the day lol
