Yes Please Ned that would be awesome, and how rude of me I neglected to say what a great job your doing on your van I was just excited at the prospect of getting some fogs.. Transits are rare as here in wreckers and when I do find one they have already pretty much been stripped bare If I think of any other small items will let you know don't want to have to remortgage the house to pay for postage. Although the UK seems pretty good with postage.

Cheers
Chris.

Am working tomorrow and half day Thursday but the junk yard is about 5 mins from the job so I'll pop in and grab them for you, I have been trying to decide whether to get some side skirts from an E36 bmw and make them fit my van, its all down to how cheap I can get them. N
