Well I bit the bullet and received my wheel today - just 18 days after ordering. Total cost after import and handling charges - even with discount - £569.28. Expensive for a spare wheel, but perhaps not for peace of mind?

I had both the upper and lower grilles swapped out by Mike and the team at Modurstang. Can't remember exactly how long it took them, but at £50 all in it can't have been long! Before... [url=https://flic.kr/p/DVqs8g] ...and after. [url=https://flic.kr/p/22uH5G7]

Thanks for the info. Can you give an idea of the total cost to import to the UK?

I don't need the rear seats for people, so this is my solution.

Now where's the wrapping paper....?

Very impressive - I've a long way to go to match that! I do have a few other things to do first though..... :):)

Working on it....;)

A bit of under-bonnet dress-up....

Stick your keys in the fridge at night....or in the microwave - but after you've made your cocoa....:)

They've not just pinched the motor - they've just turned the grille upside down too... Capture by pavageau, on Flickr

As Centurion says, it's pretty straightforward - this piccie might help...

You're right, how did you get at it? So far it's defeated me. In spite of watching all the YouTube videos and releasing the little cover flap that's supposed to give access, I still can't get a hand to it.

It adds a (microscopic) amount of weight, does nothing for performance.... ...but at least I don't get socked in the eye by that bloody plastic football every time I lift the bonnet.... :)

My 'Stang (modern classic) and my 44 year old classic.... ...also a V8.... ...although in this case a 'Hemi' ('home grown' variety and not from that other yank manufacturer)... ...which doesn't need as much 'dress up' as the 'Stang.;)

Photobucket has discovered that the revenue from advertising no longer covers the cost of third party hosting, which is why they've introduced a charge for the user. There are other web image hosting sites that still allow free third party hosting - try flickr - but in light of Photobucket's...

Thanks for the feedback guys - it's obviously a common problem. I had a can of WD-40 silicone lubricant in the garage... ...rather than the PTFE lube, but I tried this and it does seem to have solved the problem :thumbsup:. The window alignment is still not perfect but is does now seal...

I think I have this same rear window problem on my 2016 'vert. It's done just over 15000 miles. It's the RH rear window (in this case, the driver's side) and the rather poor picture below shows the problem... As well as rising, the closing motion involves rotation in a fore and aft plane...

Your wife's not thinking of going into production with these is she? (If she is - put me down for one please!) :clap2:

Yes indeed - so far so good. Only real downside seems to be that you need to be careful where you park for the next few days after the treatment - the car will drip, mainly along the length of the sills. Best to park in someone else's drive maybe....? It is relatively easy to clean up though...
