and it fits, the ecu is behind this with a bag around it, not a bad fit:-)

the pass side was a perfect fit:-)

its a two man job for sure.

I have found getting the filler strip in the worse job without having the proper tool, last time I bent up a gas welding rod the shape of a diamond to get it in, will need to buy the proper lacing tool next time.

Might sound like a weird idea, but when I refitted the glass to my Viva I used some thin electric fence wire. It's nylon string with thin steel wires running through, so it's slippery enough to not catch on the rubber and strong enough not to break no matter how hard you pull it!

Looking awesome Mick :thumbup
