Michel with your many years in the body shop repair business what is your opinion of the rocker cover now it has been repainted?

Maybe I should have gone out on a limb and had the cover repainted wait for it red?!
:D

Black cars oh the joy of keeping it clean!
:rolleyes:

One trip to and from the Hunter last weekend in the Yaris covered in dust and bird crap.

The car cleaner here at home deserves a pay rise!

You know are right Geoff.

Just a simple 'thank you the car looks terrific', is more than enough appreciation for me.

Removed the backseat and vacuumed under the seat.

Found the spare missing seat belt which is good!

Was amazed by the amount of sand, dirt, old tissues etc now under the backseat is like new again!

The good old Dyson vacuum did the trick!

Removing and refitting the backseat is so easy in the 300SE two orange metal clips pull up at the same seat comes out.

Simply place the back seat swab back down make sure it square pushed down the orange clips and you hear a 'click', job done.

Here's a good tip check under your backseat and see if it needs a good vacuum?

I never even thought of removing and cleaning under the backseat in preparation for the Concourse.

Received an email from Aussie Post the s/roof guide angle rails are in transit!

Mechanic is recovering from surgery and will have to wait until early January to have the new rails installed.

Just over 6 months since the sunroof has been able to open and close correctly.

So the guide angle rails are well overdue to be replaced.
