you spanner, i have all the parts you want!

You've got the good old rusty T-piece as well. Join the club. Renault want Â£12 odd for that. I resent paying that for a small piece of metal pipe and looked high and low for a cheaper alternative, without success.

If its just rusted at the ends though and not actually leaking, just clean it up and whack it back on.

or, you could just take it, and not worry about any cops or land owners or random people coming to ask you what you are doing

and have the car next to your chammy,

and it will be a lot eaiser to do instead of walking 200 meters all the time

and life will be grand.

WOULD IT BE FINE TO PAINT THE ROCKER COVER OR WILL IT LOOK CRAP AS IT GETS HOT ????

As luck would have it, some kind soul has written an article in the Knowledge Base which deals with that very activity Wink

As a prologue to that article, well over a year after writing it, the paint still looks fine... no bubbling, discolouration, nothing. You do need to use laquer on it though, just to emphasise.
