    Brings back memories of when I changed the radiator and hoses earlier this year. Looks like a daunting job, but if you give yourself a couple of day you will be surprised how relatively easy it is. For my fuse and relay box, I used a few cable ties. This secured them in place. Then I used a hot glue gun to stop them rattling or moving about. Whilst sorting out my S2 Steves videos have been my main go too clips for hands on information.

    This looks very good now, I had forgotten all about this project, and with all that is happening I think you probably had as well! These assembly jobs are so much easier with two people. Stay safe! Chris B.

    Hello Steve, I think it's great that you replace all the small screws with new ones. With attention to detail, it becomes a beautiful little sports car. The finish will be better than from the factory! Fantastic! BR Olaf

    HI FLEMIISH, THE FINS OF THE BRAKE DISC AT TIME 5:17 ARE FACING BACKWARDS. I DONT THINK THEY SHOULD BE LIKE THAT. OTHERWISE THE DISC WILL NOT COOL DOWN. I THINK THE FINS SHOULD FACE FORWARD SO THAT THEY CAN COOL QUICKLY AS THE WHEEL IS DRIVING.

      Thanks for the comments , Yes your are right , bolt bold is something else.... lol
      As for the other video, I did remove it. As it was getting out of hand... and that was not the intend.. I could have turned of the comments , but then its like me saying "shut-up" and that is not me . So it was better to remove it.... It caused to much friction amongst viewers to the point where it became political and that is not the intend of my channel.... Although I just wanted to explain a few things based on technology....

      In a way these youtube videos are way to pass the knowledge. But maybe a son/grandson/nephew could be the best choice for that purpose. Making sure he(she) likes to learn.
