Default MOT's and PETROL TANKS

car failed its mot for the first time ever ,lol

needs new steering gaitors, no problem i think,lol

finally got to swap the wires over in the drivers side headlight, because when i turn the sidelights on full beam comes on aswell,but when you turn full beam on it dont come on. any dea which wire/s i need to swap round?

and the one thats a fucker i think is the petrol tank, how hard are they to take out and replace, do i have to take anything out of the old tank and put it in a new one, or has anyone got a secondhand 3dr tank? jules ?
