Why do you need the centre panel for an MOT, reversing lights aren't covered.

Nice job on sorting the window out. That car has potential.

Me too. I think we both let the side down there!! :lol: :lol:

Round of applause that Man! Excellent Paul. :D
The rear window looks perfect. You wouldn't know it had been replaced.

Best of luck with the MOT.

Little to no cleaning needed on them, Im rather impressed with their condition considering...

So, out with the spray underseal..

Nicely sealed up, not fancying any premature pipe bursts...
