Just curious...what brand swing away tire carrier? I was thinking of purchasing a MANTEC one myself, but if they are noisy junk...I'll put my money elsewhere.

Are you saying your mod friendly now, but you still take issue with those soppy New Romantic types?

a safari equip or similar over center design wheel carrier with swing half door wont rattle but might be harder for you to get hold of

Vectra gsi seats in my defender 110
Hard to climb up into, left the backs of my knees straining when pressing pedals and my legs rubbed on the steering wheel
I mounted em as low as poss on custom brackets but after a week ripped em out and put the defender ones back in
Very comfy and heated but alas far from perfect

Forgive me but if I can speak of a friend who's since moved overseas I think, his modd regret would prob be when he bought a Tdci bulkhead for almost a grand to fit his Tdi only to discover it didn't fit when offered up
Then he sold it for about £500 and ended up flogging the Landy still dismantled not long after
If we ever were able to get back in touch I think I would have to hide my 110 300 Tdi which ahem is er fitted with a Tdci bulkhead ooooops

Like you Paul D I fitted heavy duty yellow springs,lasted a fortnight before my back gave up and standard new springs were fitted.Only mod I regretted was fitting +3" Heavy Duty springs all round .. I soon went back to +2" and now want lighter spring weight again ..
Wouldn't mind a swing-away carrier, mind ...
