daz05 Posted October 20, 2021 Report Share Posted October 20, 2021 Hi, link below to the next video update i've been working on. All I had to do was install the front camera but as you will see one thing always leads to another... Very eager to hear from you if you have any tips, advice or trim parts going spare Thanks Daz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emil2099 Posted October 21, 2021 Report Share Posted October 21, 2021 Great video Daz, look forward to the next project. What are you going to put in place of the third rad and that big hole in the middle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooose Posted October 21, 2021 Report Share Posted October 21, 2021 I am subscribed - another excellent video and I will follow with great interest - I have contemplated the bumper change on many occasions but always got cold feet. You might just provide the inspiration needed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess option 1 is to retrofit it but it's additional cost and probably unnecessary in my climate and it adds more weight. Option 2 is to blank it out and use mesh to hide it and make it look aesthetically pleasing. Option 3 is to install the trim without the radiator and some mesh, the bumper has the vents already and I have the trim piece on order for the gap underneath. Thoughts welcome?

Mrs TestDrive doesn't even realise what has changed which is probably for the best as I don't have to share the costs! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too, paint next week and then maybe just maybe I'll get some bits. At this rate I'd be quicker flying to the EU with a big suitcase and getting them myself!

daz05 Posted October 24, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 I've managed to track down a part I was missing from a friendly chap in Germany. I have to trust that he will deliver the part..it's below £135 at least so hopefully the vat and admin won't be too high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I would go for Option 3. There's always an option of adding a third radiator down the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daz05 Posted October 25, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 @emil2099great minds .... The part I was struggling to find for was the centre duct that feeds the radiator but I located one and it's on its way from Germany. I can either just blank out the small gap or allow the air to travel in, down and under. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
