Are they HEKO's .... ?

 

I got a pair of them and keep catching my hand on the ruddy things for some reason, so removed them but am thinking of re-fitting them....

Got Clim-air ones on one of mine and they're really good, I thought they'd be rubbish! Makes airflow at 80+ more bearable on long road trips.

 

Not much point getting a set for the other though with a big hole in the roof.. :lol:  >_<

I find the Heko's quite noisy to be honest but I do like the look of them...

 

Had a set on all my cars...

 

My last set was on my Omega, they didn't fit properly in the channel they was supposed to, so superglued them in..... LOL they would stay in at over 130 :) not that I ever tried it.... :gimme:

Yep the HEKO'S,HOW do you manage to catch your hand..are you opening and shutting the door using the window frame???

I had a pair on a minivan years back when,only thing when your where in front or behind the vehicle,they stood out so far you'd think you were being followed or following a baby jumbo!!!

I like these HEKO ones because their so close fitting and still work ;D

Welded the drivers side sill on so apart from a little bit of weld tidying and painting that side is done :D

Then took the cutting discs to the other side - BIG hole :shy:  New front floor panel arrive this afternoon.

Today I have changed from a Maniflow LCB exhaust to a standard cat back exhaust system because the Maniflow doesn't have a cat on it... need it to be there for MoT time next week...

 

Alls gone swimmingly apart from where the backbox connects to the cat link pipe theres a small hole that is blowing slightly but its enough to bug the crap out of me, so will be sorting that Sunday if I have finished decorating my sons room ....

It now has a hole in the boot :)

Undersealed the rear arches and valance. Lubricated the front and rear suspension arms.

Knocked off one of the front bump stops and noticed the driveshaft boot has lost its tie wrap. Do'h!
