Which would you recommend fitting first,

The windscreen or dash? Hoping to get the new headlining in very soon. However, which first after that?

Headlining/vinyl adhesive

Can anyone recommend a descent adhesive to use on my headlining, soundproofing and to repair my door cards. Preferably one that doesn't come loose when hot.

24v Electrics

Still going crazy over not being able to sort my electrics out. So I have my battery in the boot and the large power cable going from the positive terminal to the starter motor, however, should there be a wire connecting the starter to the alternator?

I've had mine replaced.

Re: Why is Caprisport such a twat

To be fair when dealing with Caprigear I always pick up the phone. Martin has been exceptionally helpful in the past, a pleasure to talk with and I will continue to use him when possible in the future. His service has always been second to none.
