    yer there not too bad.

    also fitted a pair of polished bonnet lifters, much better then searching for the rusty pole to keep the bonnet open.

    thanks.

    Well its in the garage today. Was gonna attempt this work myself, but decided to take it to a local reliable garage to do the work so I know its done properly and to give me a break and enjoy my week off work.

    Should be having the cam seal and head gasket looked at and there seems to be juddering when pulling away so might be the clutch plate, so having a new clutch assembly and clutch cable replacing.

    Also idles erratically and burning petrol\smoking quite abit.

    pics at the garage (sorry not that good)

    yes straight fit, just take the runners off the punto seats and bolt them to the coupe seats and drop them in.
