sometimes the bottom flange gets damaged from jacking and the drain slots get squashed clo, or else they get covered over with underseal.
then the sills fill up with water and leak into the footwellx
Ooooo err! :O I'll get that checked :-( x

yup, hence I extended the front drain tube to go straight through the sill and prevent any of that from ever happening.
try pull back the sill carpets n look for pooling water in the sill port holes during heavy rain?

Right slight delay on an update... First of all major thankyou to Andy (h701) for having us was great to see you and have a catch up won't leave it aslong next time
Tom and I set of last Tuesday and in 4 hours finally found louth and bright spark racing spent the rest of the day nattering on and looking round the unit
Picked up my rear coilovers and then on the Wednesday fitted the coilovers and Andy set them up for me beautifully .... Pre load set just right so guess it's time for a pic or two
Then left Wednesday evening
Noticed when I was driving back from work that the steering felt really lose and I felt like I had little control over Mildred after leaving a round about sideways with very little ice on the road. Removed the "camber" from the front and perfect!
Now on the lookout for new wheels so I can bring her down to ground just a little more and need a bigger ofset to stop scrubbing on the inner arch not having much luck with wheels at the minute... Will keep you updated x

So sorting my fogs today get them working.
Started with the drivers side got all the paint off noticed a small hair line crack... Nothing major
Bottom of it is full of gunk and burnt out slightly so popped it in the oven to sort....
Cleaned it up lovely.... Layed it on the work top and this happened.....

It was from the local car part shop... £2.50 honestly.... Not flush completely but it isn't to bad of a fitting... I wanted to use that blank as it was the "confiest" place for it to me (left handed) but on the binical around the speedo is a nice flat blank.... Dunno if it is on yours or if you have the electric adjusting headlights xx
