as above im thinking about making a removable slam panel for ease and convenience of removing the radiator etc then replacing it with a bolt on replacment my concern is that it wont be mot friendly and will then have to be welded back in place for it to be road worthy........................any ideas on this matter i have seen these before on track cars but never a road car.

 

cant see why not


lee at fusion runs a removable panel


thinking about doing mine too

 

No problem at all

 

most parts on my turbs remove themselves with mr.brown anyways!

 

you lost me there

 

think its a relative of Mr TinWorm

 

aye,mr.rust

 

just cut it off and cable tie it on like a do lol

 

Nothing but the highest quality crafts-man-ship work is see for you mate

aye but is it legal?

 

sure B8 has removable slam panel on his S2

 

Best thing to do mate would be to go to where you get you car m.o.t and ask them i cant see it being a problem if its secure

 

Thats what i was going to do but as i had to strip the head and turbo off on friday night started to get to work at 6pm by then the mot centre was shut and wont be open till tomorrow (monday) just thought i could do it before i had to start stripping the rad out etc to aid removel but had to do it the long winded way until its confirmed with a high person (m.o.t. inspector) and who are we to argue with them eh???

 

u get them cars with removable front ends and kit cars and minis hav them so there cant be a legal issue my water pipe for turbo went the nite on van and checked oil 1 inch too much in bagger eh

 

Iv got a removable slam pannel on mine, and had no probs at MOT time

 

gav a need rain scuttle for mk3 cant get one anywhere hadrains dont make them and dont no were al get one

 

Mine will be removable
