    Haha!!! Fair enough too!! I sort of equate the chop to sky diving - jumping out of a perfectly good aircraft, cutting a perfectly good panel? Same in my books!!! But, I've done skydiving so that only leaves me one option!!! LOL

    Will do boss - next weekend is the moment of truth - bit excited about getting some proper rear lights up top in the rear quarter panel also ... always moan about the fact the brake light was just a blank etc, so nice little bonus of doing this job ... as there'll be none down low once this gets fully underway!!
