Spare Wheel all mounted OK.
Rear screen Tint removed...pig of a job....I have left the "gansta" side tints for now as it highlights the "Flying roof".
I have been cleaning..............

Re: Hello Chaps....new owner
The overall condition of that car never ceases to impress me, 23 years old and 139k miles and it is still really good.

Well that made a mess, finally tracked it down to the front Safety Valve return line connector. LHM was tracking along pipes & support plate making it look like it was the height corrector....so I will take that as a bonus.

Re: Hello Chaps....new owner
Item is 5280 P5 - hydraulic return tube sleeve Diam 3 NFP
Used on BX, CX, Xan, XM - height correctors and elsewhere
Listed in stock here:
https://www.bxparts.eu/en/hydraulic-ret ... antia.html
Straight ones can be improvised, but elbows more tricky.
Always assumed these were black 'rubber', but your photo (and the ad) shows originally transparent.
Haven't yet managed to find a modern/generic 3mm ID flexible elbow.

Re: Hello Chaps....new owner
I fitted a "black rubber" one from my shelf stock...............90degree "curved" rather than 90 degree "joint"

Re: Hello Chaps....new owner
Was that curved one a Cit part (number?) or something else, Alasdair?

Re: Hello Chaps....new owner
One window (drivers) is playing up by dropping (under power) at an angle....upon investigation all wires etc are in very good state (I still greased them)...........it is the clip at the top of the windows trailing edge, totally missing but with the slider in its rummer.
I think I an correct that it is part number : 95291417 DOOR WINDOW GUIDE
Anyone know a source for these glass clips ?
And I HATE finding this !! (missing door seal membrane)
