Well got the heater matrix done what an utter fucking ballache that was!!! Dash ooot then trying to get heaterbox to sit in right place when putting dash back in was a mare! Along with the usual pain in the poo passage of putting everything back together and remember which screws went where But it is all done and the car has heat again!
Due to the aforementioned taking so long only managed to swap inlet back over, Sunday I will be cleaning the inside properly putting rest of bungs in. VTS heater exchanger, top hoses, oil/oilfilter, drop links and exhaust swap will leave until last sat of this month then do it all then.

doing the heater matrix is a bitch !!
The worst bit is trying to undo the clamps from the coolant hoses on the bulkhead !!
Good job done though !!
