Fitting the Heater - 20:20 hindsight

With a bit of hindsight (there might be a few of these) a better way of fitting the heater would be to make a template of the heater face before drilling any holes and perhaps include an outline of the outside edge, place the template into position on the footwell side and then decide where you'd like the holes to be. Mark these on the template and then transfer these onto the heater face as marks where to drill the holes. Within reason and obviously taking care to avoid the heater matrix, the bolts should then be in a perfect position to enable easy fitment.

The hindsight thing sounds familiar indeed. I've found myself thinking a lot afterwards: "Now I know how to do this perfectly, but it's already done now"

I guess we'll have to build us a second car :-)

Hi Marcel, I can "sort of" understand how people get the bug and go on to build a second or even third. Things must be so much easier the second time around.

I've been following your build with interest, keep up the good work.

Best regards

Ryan
