AB 0 Posted January 3, 2007 nice, is it structual? do you have a pic? did you have to weld anything after? sorry for all the questions Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wilkes 0 Posted January 3, 2007 cant see as it would be structural ,theres not enough to hold it in ,i dont have any pics of it during taking it out ,ive got one of it finished though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wilkes 0 Posted January 3, 2007 didn't mean to post that twice ! no i didn't have to weld any thing ,just a skim of filler ,i also removed the sound deadening (i presume) from behind it ,and that was a right b1tch ,also dont forget youll need someway to mount the one wiper bolt ,and somewhere to put the coilpack/coil Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
