You lot make me feel very shabby, all I have done is carpet the garage (with underlay!)

I hope that it will contribute to keeping the temperature above about 4 or 5 degrees

 

It will also keep my toes warm whilst I have quality time at the front of my 6.

Re read the posts, its not difficult as long as you follow the advice from those who have been here before. Uprated bushes, column out etc, yep its a bore but not difficult and as advised push the old bushes out with a tube and replace with same technique, ...I can verify that this works and is a real pig of a job if you don't take the guidance.

Well I WAS looking forward to a weekend of tinkering in the garage..... but I got home last night to find a number of rolls of wallpaper on the kitchen table :( so it looks like I am stuck in the spare room up to my elbows in paste........... :unsure::wacko:

Darren,

 

You brought the problem on yourself by making an elementary mistake in the domestic politics game - you acknowledged they were there! :D

Both bushes surely?

....oh yeah....!!

 

actually started yesterday and gone the whole hog... removed the whole column, repainted the outer column as it was a tad scratched as too was the plastic cowling, serviced the light, indicator and overdrive switches, new top and bottom bushes, new felts and greased and lubed everything that needed it.

 

paint should be fully dry in the mornning then it;s just a matter of putting all back.....!

 

i was thinking of swaping over the indicators to the left.....

My indicators are on the L too. Much easier transition from the Eurobox.

Had to get a cowl for the RHS and dremel a little space to allow the high beam switch to have full ROM. The original cowl went into storage.

As I've never used the light switch the "right way up" it seems perfectly normal to me
