got soaked doing it tho,  easy enough, and wired the boot mounted reversing light,  the tank was a pig to get back in tho petrol everywhere, even tho it was emptyish, so i threw my spare empty tank in instead, so whats the knack refitting the seal between the bodywork and the tank filler neck? that things a mare,   |

looking much better never had a problem with the seal, keep it on the bodywork and the neck should slide through |

Yes looking great Irish. What seal is that, the felt like one that's attached to the filler neck or the plastic one that's clipped to the filler neck hole? |
