Cracking on there Andy.
Meg not scared of the hoover?
We had a Collie cross when I was a kid , he hated it.
Used to wind him up by petting the hoover and saying good dog to it then switching it on so it swallowed his dog chocs!
I did love him and we had him for years

Well today was spent removing the Chinese led headlight conversion, this also revealed a couple of broken headlight mounts, once sorted and back together with new bulbs, revealed a bulb warning light. Turns out I had a chafed wire in the usual place (over the top of the chassis)

Out with the soldering iron and a new piece of wire added and the little warning light was banished.

I noticed some oil on the sump when I had the bumper off, turns out to be a hole in the sump.

The oil is draining now, I will whip the sump off tomorrow before finding a replacement.

The only thing I did today was to swap the rear door that was full of filler, not a bad colour match though 🤣
