  6. So spent today:

    Fixing the tailgate lock - check
    Cleaning under the front seats and runners - started
    Fixing the temperamental sliding door lock - check

    So a day well spent
     
  7. Been trying out the replacement bumpers with over riders all attached @carlperkins001 to make sure they fit. Next job is to get them painted.
