Wasted a bit of Saturday slowly cleaning the chequer plate with a dremel and detailing brush, looked average at best.

Spent Sunday using oven cleaner on the chequer plate and after only 30 mins got a much better result.

Really clean but not shiny (as i dont want it polished looking) so well pleased


If it's alloy chequer plate you need an acid cleaner,will bring it up champion.

I have installed a work/reversing LED light on the 130 and also put a switch in:
Up: LED light switches on when in reverse
Center: shut off (for MOT and urban areas)
Down: LED light on when needing more light at the back of te car. Also functions when engine is off.



At the same moment I also installed a 12V socket in the back of the car. I used one cable from the battery box with four wires to connect both the LED light and 12V socket. Those Blue Sea fuse boxes make life much easier! Very Happy

Fitted new steering damper, it would have been done yesterday but had to pop out this morning to buy 15mm socket to remove the nut on the drivers side. 13mm for the bolt head 15mm for the nut?

Washed and polished the body and a special washed and polish for the wheel after getting some stick from the independant parts dealer yesterday Don't make old people mad.
We don't like being old in the first place,
so it doesn't take much to Censored us off.

Towed my wife's Freelander to the garage, after some Censored hit the front when he was reversing and not seeing the car behind him! Was a pickup from a garden company, so the huge towbar/ball did have quit some impact on the radiator and airco. Big Cry

Thanks, we are staying at Polmanter and have a see view from our caravan. It's a nice site but expensive.
