I got them from a guy on this site second hand, Didnt cost alot tbh. If you need some then just ask people that are breaking cars.
I do like the MK2 Rear lights but its not priority at the moment but i will get around to it

Dead easy to remove the wiper motor without damage mate! Just remove the wiper arm and all the fixings, then pulls straight out of the rubber seal without touching the glass. DO IT!!!

There's one in the interior rear floor of the car that's a good fit for now, if you didn't want to wait.
Cars coming along nice by the way mate.

Cheers dude, its 350mm and it has 70mm of depth.
I thought it was fairly easy to fit, because the airbag was already out it meant i could just get on with it

Rocker covers were done in normal gloss black but you should really use high temp paint to be on the safe side

Here is a link to the stuff i used to spray my VTR rocker cover a while back.
It worked fine but its not that glossy.
