Well where should I start.
Myself and dad have been incredibly busy working on the Panda's over the last 10 days or so.
Firstly, dad's new Selecta is now Taxed and his daily run about, all good there. She also had the timing belt changed on 2nd Sept, so that's good, and she's off to see a body work specialist on Monday week to have the odd blemish, and a spot of rust on the drivers rear wheel arch sorted so that she is 100% imaculate!
My Selecta has also been worked on. The bumper origionally from Alan.D is now fitted, and the headlamp washing kit all installed and fully operational
We managed to get the Damaged bumper off of my Selecta just about and I think this pic says it all
The bracket that took the smack when I hit the transit looked like this
and should have looked like this
It had also slightly bent the front pannel of the car where the bracket bolt's on, but with some brute strength and ignorance, we managed to be it back so the replacement bracket went on straight
Luckily we managed to use all the mounting bracket's and clips etc from our Donor 750L Panda, so I didn't need to order any new brackets and bits from our Fiat dealership.
Before the bumper went back on I then had to move the air horn's from their origional place, because they were located where the washer bottle was to go, so I removed to origional horn, and replaced it with one of the air horns as the pair wouldn't fit behind the bumper with their origional bracket
Once the bumper was on, I then fitted the headlamp washer bottle and then wired in the pump.
I did try and wire in the system with a relay so the headlamp washers were only operated with the screen washer when the headlamp's were on, but I got a relay which opened a circuit instead of close a circuit, so until I get the correct relay, they work all the time with the operation of the screen washer at the mo.
And the end result is this
And here is a pic of both of the Selecta's together out on the road. Just ashame about the weather
