I mean do you just press the switch once and they automatically fold in, same with out. So you don't have to keep the switch pressed until they're folded all the way.

Hm.. bit too much involved than I thought! Was looking into buying indivisual parts but now might give it a go if I ever get a donor car.

Went in to take some more photos this morning. Don't seem like he made much progress. I must be one of the most annoying customer ever,, dropping in every 2 sec to check up on the car... Respect to the mechanic with putting up with my impatience. :salut:

Looks like there is a chance I wont be able to make the bonfire with the FTO!

Still in one piece! Dying to know whats the heck is in that cylinder..

Yup, It's official... 1. I'm the world's most annoying customer.. Went to the shop again to drop off the strut brace and for more photo... and 2. I won't be driving the FTO to the bonfire.

Still up to rocker cover
Image

Dont look bad at all
Image

spark plugs, seal & gasket set
Image

Haven't heard of this brand but its Korean made.
Image

Image

Lovely to see the green coolant
Image

radiator flush is in order I think..
Image


ETA: early next week.

Cant wait.. losing patience..!

Was thinking about painting the rocker cover while its out..? in Silver maybe maybe to keep it looking like stock. Has anyone done this on FTO? I'm thinking it might not be worth it because the engine cover will hide it anyway.

Why did they get 0.4mm spark plugs. Factory spec is 0.8mm
