Are they affordable, considering the freight costs Ketil?
Good to know there's back up if one of my wings need to be replaced later on..

Have ordered them with a lot of other parts for another car, the frontwings was about 300 GBP delivered to Norway about 100 GBP extra if I ordered them only and not with the other car parts
Going to the garage tomorrow and checking the fit :D

Well that's bad news Ketil :? :? :( A shame when you have to put up a lot of money.
But, on the bright side, pattern steel ones never fitt straight away too. And at least, after fixing, yours will outlast the rest of your van :wink:
Considering your skills, you'll have them fixed in no time at all, I'm sure!
