    The Blimin ladders in the corner of the garage :cool: last thing to fit as what you said above i don't extra holes in-it:eek:
    I've used the old rear aluminium panel as a template for the bottom rail and offer-up the ladders that also attaches to the roof -rack and the top rail hopefully that will work.

    :lol:

  9. @crossy2112 Maybe still lower due to the fact i have to remember to make sure the garage door is all the way-up:thinking:

    You may have to swap over your surround as the one I have is yellowed with age. If you want to try it and it works, all I would ask is that you make a small donation to ‘BRADS’ Cancer Foundation for what you feel it’s worth to you.
