    For me, no... But for my wife trying to get out... Yes... Its quite entertaining to watch, as coordination is not high on the cards!!

    A bit late now but I think that the bumper bar needed to project out in the center that way the A bar could have benn a bit further forward instead of what looks like flat against the grill.

    Aesthetics of a 101 are in the eye of the beholder, round bar or square bar a bit like trying to determine what colour lipstick to put on a pig.

    Great work Simon. I can see those steps would be very handy.

    Topcoat!

    Here's a shot of fresh paint! It had tacked off nicely an hour ago (with a little help from the diesel fired Demon Heater). All being well, I'll bolt it on tomorrow eve!

    Right.... The bumper is on and done.. All lights hooked up and tested.. The light is good, but I have an earthing issue, soooooo electrical whizzzzz's out there.. What's my prob? I have 4 halogen main/dip globes. I've wired up only the outer two to work on dip beam (as I believe 4 dips are illegal), and the 4 main beams come on together. When on dipped beam the inner two globes glow slightly. All 4 earths are hooked to two known decent points. When on Main Beam, I touch the two unused inner light dip beam wires to an earth, the light becomes a lot brighter. All joints are soldered, and wired up correctly. Is it poor quality globes, or should I be re checking the earths? Even with the slight issue, the light is awesome!!!! Wombat here we come!!!
