Hand between glovebox and center, its quite a squeeze if I remember but if it pushed back to far you may be able to reach it enough

You might be able to get your h

There was no lock at the time or handle lol but the door catch and mechanism were both there. After I got it I took the loop straight off to make sure I didn't do it again :p Interesting to know though, I got a new set anyway as they were a different key each side lol but I could use both in...

Wdidt, went round the car and sanded everywhere then gave it all a wipe down with big wipes Then I did somat stupid, luckily it was rly easy to fix after a cig to give me time to plan I took the mirrows and door window seals out then took the locks and door handles of. Then I shut the doors...

Now you mention the vectra b I had also had both on the back. Confused the heck out of me at first then decided the discs look like top hats :p

*using multiple tubs :P not got everything all crammed in one bucket :)

thanks guys frank as soon as i saw that pic i had a headslap moment, i remember reading the same bit of haynes book and understanding it as that but misread it this time for some reason as put it on the piston :confused: and i like the little grinding jig you've made there pollyp, like how...

As they are or after pushing in and removing. Also I read thats how you check it but couldnt help but think that they would unspring when I take em back out? Ill give it a go later on :p

Measured old v new and there all pritty close but some little diffebce and decided it close enough to give it a test fit and check the gaps and then make final decision.

Thanks paul thats good news, I am a little concerened about the gap being bigger as I would have thought tho old one would be bigger from stretching after wear but ill check all the dimensions against the haynes book to see how they shape up. The width and thickness match up (well by eye) but...

Ok so basically I ordered some for the cg10 and they refunded after a few emails as they didnt have them in stock at best parts store so I had anpther look on ebay and the one that were the right year said they were fpr 72.5mm bore iirc not the 71 that the haynes manual says coildnt find any...

I went straight to noddies aswell. Much better than the standard one as its a bar rather than sheet, and its good for standard and lowering so gives you more options for a drop :)

Thats some nice machining :) is that what your basing it on or one that youve done? Also what you making them on? :)

Just done some measuring, not very precise but reads what I want it to, have I worked it out right? I measure from centre to lobe tip and get around 24mm and to lowest point I get around 16mm. Added that gives 40mm Haynes says that cg10 is 38.005-38.195 and cg13 is 39.880-40.070. Think im onto...

No scratches on the lobes, at first I was supprised how smooth the surface was as I expected some wear or pitting or somat but it the contact parts looks very smooth, its just on the corners of the lobes that are rough/sharp
