No love for my gp?
You've been busy mate haha, I had to replace my reflector a few months back.. I didn't take the bumper off though haha!
OP

Well I read it was awkward to get to the lamp and I need to fix my exhaust plastic surround so thought it was easier to take the bumper off.
And I've also found my drivers side rear dirt shield is a bit broken lol

Managed to repair the dirt shield and get the bumper all back on. Fitted my new steering wheel too, here's a pic
Awesome man!
My reverse light is out at the moment - not sure why, intermittently comes back though - god knows how to fix that one!
How much you splash on timing belt kit, water pump and drive belt?

Could be a number of things that, sticking switch, broken wires or just the bulb. My lamp was full of water and the bulb looked on its last legs, so I'm glad I sorted that!
I managed to get the parts (belt kit, pump etc) through work for the right money and a mobile mechanic guy I know fitted it all. Cost me £150 all in
