Yeah I will eventually get a set. I'm waiting for the body shop to have a slot available so I can take the car there. I don't have a garage

Need a new house.
While I'm waiting I'm just sorting a few problems out and giving it a service. The whole cooling system needed an overhaul also. The fan and temperature gauge wasn't working. I've replaced the thermostat, fan switch and fuses. I know the temp gauge works but its connected to a small sender within the top right radiator hose. Is this correct? I have replaced that sensor anyway. I also have a bigger one but not sure where it goes, front of block?? Also does the gauge get connected here instead?
I've replaced the bonnet now the whole mechanism/cable. The 90 spec bumper has also turned up.
Appreciate the help chaps!
I will take some pictures on Friday and fit the remaining parts.
