no way i wasnt going to modify the old one to fit if im honest, i was thinkin more along the lines of having a charge carrier made to avoid running over the top but i dont know where i might get one or who might make one!

there are a few pics up of it mate, take a look on my profile no more pics for a while yet ! lol

Cheers
