Is this the interior trim that sits at the top of the door and holds the door card in place?

Yes i have, unfortunately the suspension is still attached to the car. Alot of the drivetrain and suspension components need to stay in place until the engine has gone. -
How easy are these to remove from the car? Mines in pretty good nick too, but i thought they were bonded in?

Veedub_NZ - I do have most of the items you're after, but unfortunately im in the UK so im not much use to you. Laser Mark -The throttle body will most likely go with the engine, i'll let you know if it doesn't. The ISV is £25 posted, or £20 if you want to collect. -

Hopefully the front brakes and driveshafts will be off this weekend. -
I've got 2 bolts off and snapped a 3rd, but the 4th won't have it. It feels like it's starting to snap like the 3rd, but it's starting to round off too. Irwin tool time?
-
Well these aren't moving for toffee! I'm gonna order a bolt grip socket set I think, handy to have anyway. Although I'll be spending £15 on a tool to remove a part ive sold for £20, hmmmm.

What are these Erwins ppl speak of? I need a way of unseizing bolts without resorting to flamethrowers -
I dont understand

Tried to take off the rear bumper, and failed. Tried to take off the driveshafts, and failed. Then it started to rain, so i pushed it back into the garage and packed everything up, came inside and washed up, and now ive come back downstairs to find the sun is out again! Grrrr. -
Are the 4 bolts reverse threaded? Or are they just a massive ballache to get off? All 4 aren't moving at all, and 1 is in danger of rounding off

Oldskool - I can do the rear bumper delivered for £50. Pumbaa - Make it £12 and you've got a deal. Laura - If you could send me a photo(s) that would be helpful. I've never had any issues with fuel pumps so never had to deal with them before. -

Im going to take a stab in the dark and say it weighs around the same as a front bumper. So i can weigh the front bumper tomorrow evening and give you a quote from that. Will be a bugger to post though. -
There was a different sunroof motor for the VR6? Never knew that!

The last photo shows the colour fade and chipping well. As far as im away the rear panel is part of the chassis? -

Dont worry about being late to the party mate, there's still a mountain of parts left! Rear bumper, yes. There is some paint fade/chipping so it will need a respray, unless you're happy to leave it of course. After £25. Would ideally need to be collection/delivery only as i imagine it would cost a small fortune to post, but again i can arrange this if you're happy to pay. -

Ciarrado – The fog lights/indicators have already been sold. I’d like to sell the headlights as a set, which I can do for £70 delivered. Beastie – I’ve no idea right now tbh, I really need to get more of the interior and engine bay components sold first so I can begin to think about getting the car in the air to remove the drivetrain. I’ll try to have a gander at the fuel pump this weekend. -

Beastie - The front hubs and carriers will eventually be available, but at the minute i need to keep the shell rolling. Laura - I'll be perfectly honest and say that this is the furthest i've delved into the mechanics of the car, and i dont actually know where the fuel pump and accumulator are or what they look like. Sorry. If someone can put me in the right direction though i can take a gander for you. -
I have yes.
The alternator will be in the post tomorrow, and the fan cover will be sent on Tuesday, i need to find a suitable box for it tomorrow.

I have one off a 1.8 16V, if the offer above falls through let me know if mine is of interest.
