This forum is great... quick too...
Thanks for all you help & advise...

(Ahem!)  Just decided that we need a 3/8 drive torque wrench at work... some of the guys have been overtightning screen brackets - Fancy that !!! -

Phoned VX - got quoted £45 for the gaskets...
is that right ? seems expensive [size=8](if anyone wants to quote from lock, stock please feel free)[/size]
Guess i'd better replace the inlet mf & plenun o rings as well....
Spanner rash awaits :(
Anyone put a pc in there omega yet ?
Cant really find a good place to put a screen... the ideal would be to replace the CID but i like what it does and wouldn't want to loose it,
Whats the VX sat nav like that they fit in the elite?

Steve
Thats probably for each bank, I get them for about £65 with the trade card thats for both banks and the 16 O rings

Hi Steve,
If there's a cambelt involved as well I could be persuaded to visit sunny Somerset ;)
