    No, but it needs the same attention and you have less time.

  12. Can I just ask, the battery tray is that the right position, as in sticking out backwards beyond the "D" pillar. I'm just doing my rear corners and battery tray and had no reference as mine was rotted out. I've been searching the site for the couple of hours and yours is the best reference picture I can find. Also did the engine lid hinge panel fit well? where did you get it?

    Cheers

    Excellent skills by the way, just looked through your entire thread very inspirational
     
  13. Hi m8 yes the tray sticks out a little bit as there is a little gap between the post and the rear corner panel and yes the hinge panel was ok from vw heritage hope this helps.
