Oh ballsack, I didn't see the bung in the 2nd pic :oops: I still have the other one to do so I'll remove that one as well, struggling to get the back off the one I haven't done yet :lol: I'm thinking of getting some small LEDs and fitting them along the top edge (on the backs) and down the outer edge.

If you can, pop the glass out and then you can get to the clip things that hold the back on

:lol: :lol: I like to do things the hard way :wink: my van kinda chose me, I bid on 12 vans one night on fleabag 11 shot well above my budget and I won my van (I was the only bidder) 950 sovs it cost me, which isn't too bad considering its not needed welding, yet, it certainly makes up for the lack of welding in the engine department :lol: :lol: its a quick bugger though.

Heater fan kaput.
Used genuine bought and fitted.
Now I can see who gets in my way and not rely on guessing from the thump thump and the bonnet imprint. :!:

Went much better than the propshaft debacle. :wink:

Ran the wires in the other mirror, its easy when you remove the other bung :lol: Found the loom under the dash for the mirror and fitted the switch panel,

Now just need to figure out what the two blanks are for, 1 has wires to it. N

Had to go to the supermarket for formula milk for my grandson.

Hurrah for snow rated tyres!

Aye after your information about the other bung it ws much easier :lol: Just need to order the heated mirror glass now and fit the mirrors.

The light switch now has front and rear fog switches separate now instead of combined, I hate extra plugs with no idea what they do. N
