Backdating windscreen washer - what's the solution
I'm in the middle of a backdating project (1987 carrera to 1973ish), and have had to remove the windscreen washer bottle when fitting the early wings. I know this is a common problem but wonder what other people have done to get around it? I know Keith Seume mentioned this in his backdating article ...

James - glad to hear it - thought you'd got too much time and or money to respray it now! Jean thanks for the good wishes, and sounds like yours is going to be well cool. I presume you don't need the black grill any more? Just picked up my Fuchs from Biagio today - looking great http://i14.photobuck...

Thanks for that James - I'm actually past that problem now but I like the look of that exhaust - maybe for the future.... What's with your car!! You've only had it 3 months and you've go the glass out - what are you doing with it? If you don't want to post it here stick it under your own entry on th...

OK - got a bit more progress now - it's sort of drifted on a bit over the last few weeks - Once they'd got over the problem of the rear bumper (Which was solved by cutting a small amount away from the bottom of it), they then had to make some new brackets for the front bumper as well. They then star...

As I had trouble sleeping last night I thought I'd give Autofarm a call this morning to see what they had to say about the exhaust thing. They said that yes it does foul against the exhaust but not by very much, and they cut away part of the rear bumper - this is apparently visible from the outside ...

Excuse the duplicate posting - I've put this on the 911 board for help, but it's relevant to the progress of my project. Mine looks different to yours Derek - I seem to have these additional brackets - would it be possible for you to let me have a photo from a bit far back - I'm having trouble getti...

Moved on a bit further but hit a couple of snags Firstly Simon has fitted one of the new panels he made up (around the torsion bar hole) but unfortunately the hole doesn't line up with the bar http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a314/markslade/DCP_1375.jpg You can't see it from this pic but believe me...

No worries - I've been approached by a guy called crayford on the forum who can sell me a twin outlet sports one for the 3.2 carrera. He says it's a bit louder than standard. I suppose the noise all depends on what happens inside the box - baffling etc I'll be driving the car every day so I could se...
