That's a good idea. I reckon silicone hoses for the main part of the cooling system will be about £100 if I use the aluminium cobbectors, more if I have...
Just to say thanks to Graham on putting his ten pennys worth about the Forum. I have spent some time also in battle with "the club" on getting a simular...
Give us a clue how to remove the center console (the bit around the handbrake/gear lever) ?? Removed the bit with the old Ford switches in (well, wiggled it a...

From memory mine was just jammed in place (cant promise - this was my car anyway). You need the handbrake as far up as it will go and remove the gear knob, and...
I have to slacken off the cable to get the handbrake up far enough. Just pop the switches, clock and radio bits ( if fitted) out forward and remove connectors,...
Man handled the thing out, wedged in - class !! Having re-covered my dash and put all the dials and new warning lights back in I thought there would probably...
For the indicators, try messing around with the hazzard warning switch, mine did the same and it just required the switch moving around a bit. Cheap and nasty...
Thanks Mark, I found that the fuse had gone so I replaced the fuse but now when I try the indicator i get a buzzing sound from the relay directly beneath the...
Dont know on that one without a multitester.....just another point about the console, if you think it needs extra screws to hold it in place, there is just to...
if the relay is buzzing then it is just a loose connection; just wiggle it about a bit Perr ... From: Mark Thompson To: GinettaG33@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
Hi All Remember a few months ago Perry mentioned a mod 'a la TVR' to do away with door handles, bowden cables and other nastiness to do with opening G33 doors....
I'd also like to do this so any part numbers and places to buy them from would be appreciated. Also the bit about the keyless ignition........... Regards, ...

now the keyless ignition is a little complex and involves a CAT1 transponder immobiliser ( like you get on most modern high end market cars ); the system costs...
Thanks for the info Perry, around £500 to do the whole job including getting it fitted and purchasing the system and panel ?? As regards the earlier point...

Simple question (because I haven't got round to buying a workshop manual!) Does the RV8 have a coolant drain plug on the block? If so, where is it located? ...
hi all, anyone know how to get the interior panels off the doors???, have tried in vain, loosening screws from the inside of the door pocket but think theres...
Nick, There is a drain plug ( in some cases a tap ) on each side of the block. about halfway along. They are quite often impossible to get undone due to...
Jamie, To get the top part of the dash directly above the instruments is quite easy, they are simply two nuts that hold it in place. Got to get your hands up...
Chaps I can confirm the instrument binacle is part of the dashboard moulding. The 'hood' section that sits on the top of the instrument binnacle is a separate...
Jamie, On my car the door panels are held on by simple push fit plastic lugs. I lever them off gently with a large, blunt screwdriver and have no screws to ...

Glenn I know that reply was directed at Jamie, but it was very useful. I was going to replace the instrument panels with carbon fibre, but if I have do do all...
Nick and all, The rather tacky plastic that sits behind the bezels of the main instrument cluster and in front of the fiberglass of the dash, disintegrated...
Glenn I was going to replace the lights too and do the centre console with matching switches, but it strikes me that it will have to wait until I need to...
I've just re-covered my instrument panel and done a similar thing to Glenn. I re-covered mine with a covered fibre effect material which stuck onto the...
