It was this one. https://www.ebay.co....bwIAK:rk:1:pf:0

 

I think, (as I didn't measure) the hole I was left with in the bulkhead was 1/4", witch is 6.4mm, as there was a slight bit of wiggle room. With the cable end being 8mm and the nut being m6, 10mm spanner size. And I shortened mine by about 5 mm, witch i new I'd have to as the 25mm ones were the shortest I could find.

Your 25 is just lovely. They've always caught my eye. Understated, yet definitely a Special Edition. My favourite SE of them all.

The other wheel arch has now been given the same treatment, and I’ve just noticed I’ve missed a bit on the rear subframe.

I was just wondering what is the red paint base coat you have used here is?

Screwfix red oxide metal primer, but only where top coated with oil/enamel based paint or stone chip.
