I know we have seen a few A610 rocker covers all nice and bling before. But I like the way these have turned up with the polished oil filler neck and only using a Swiss High Temp paint.

Yes, I was wondering about that :roll: I really don't like touching that glass, one broke on me years ago when my friend who was helping me with my atmo GTA and decided to fit it on it's own.....

Maybe there should be a thred on " HOW TO REMOVE YOUR REAR GLASS SAFELY"

I wear Dickies, with paded knees ( old age ).... not chavy tracks 8)

On yer own is probably safer ....I put a big cardboard box on top of the engine and rest it on that once rams are unclipped .Then you can get to the nuts with it resting .....Sometimes the hinges can stick to the rubber pad/glass and then it all gets a bit brown trouser but usually they unstick if you open the hatch a tad in the normal fashion .

Probably a heart attack because he knows a bit about H&S and the car is on a slope, 2 trolley jacks and they dont like wheeling sideways. Take Care Matey !!!
