Thread: D2 no more :-(

Wow. I had more damage than that and it was fixed. Had to replace whole bull bar, radiator support panel, grille, radiator and condenser plus coolers, bonnet, guard and door. Paint all, plus R&R all asoc bits. Then when you explain and show the=m how to disconnect the winch and lights and they cut the wiring (yes the winch cables incl) and then tape it together (yes twist and tape winch cable, and cross it over so it shorted the winch out). So all wiring harnesses needed replacement, the winch was fried so replacement there too. Then they failed to fill the auto correctly, so it dies within 100K's. Replacement Ashcroft unit flown in from the UK.

Total repair for roo damage was $7500-, Total for the winch and auto damage was over $30k.

Mine was $9500+ that's why I think they wanted the parts.

Panel beater for the last hit replaced the park/turn lamp unit and forgot to fit bulbs. Fiddled for 1 1/2 hrs then I noticed the missing bulbs.

Now I remember why I try to do my own work.
