    Thanks for that Dave, Good luck with the car and get some pictures posted.......The only thing i will say is watch the standards, as time goes on they climb up...Things that were ok are now no good..I did my light boxes and last week re- did them saying that it just could be my age If you need help ect, Just shout.
