simm3r Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 did you just get the meisters on ebay? if you did, you beat me to them! looking forward (and enviously ) to seeing how your project turns out. I did indeed, and only had to pick them up from Essex in the end! So you're the man that cost me the extra £70 on what I could have paid for them! i can always give you the £70 back and I take the meisters get some pics up of them fitted!

Soldier456 Posted July 1, 2012 Author Share Posted July 1, 2012 Finally got the Mesiter R coilys on... Just a tip, make sure you have EVERYTHING before you start! lolI decided the easiest thing to do would be to grind through the lower mounting bolt nut, that is welded to one side of the original strut, as the bolt would have snapped, and caused more problems than it was worth.Dropped it about 2" from standard height, and well, was a bit too low, but looked sweet!But as i'm going for all round performance, decided to raise it 20mm, handles great and no rubbing issues!As she stands now...Might drop the rear back down a little, what do people think?Started to strip out the back. Anyone need rear interior?Next to do is...- Finish removing rear interior- Remove rear wiper (what size bung are people filling the hole with?)- Custom CAI- MG Spoiler (once painted)- Oil changeFuture mods will have to wait till after my Holiday!

NIKH25 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Perfect height. For removing rear wiper, I'm sure there's a how to somewhere, but:Yeah it was easy enough. Just disconcerting removing the interior boot trim. Always feels as though the trim will snap.Think it was 5 (may have been 6) fasteners to remove, then the trim pulled off.LIft cover on the rear wiper, remove nut.Unplug connector on wiper motor (inside boot) and undo 3 bolts to remove.I used one of these to bung the hole (wrapped the chrome in carbon vinyl, though you could paint it)http://m.diy.com/mt/www.diy.com/nav/fix ... t_redirectReplaced boot trim, sorted.

fyfie5 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 nice height! i think you should drop the back down a bit more so the wheel gap is a bit less but looks good and the wiper delete is pretty easy to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soldier456 Posted July 2, 2012 Author Share Posted July 2, 2012 Well to be fair guys, removing the wiper was the last of my worries, I'll have that thing off in 10 mins! lol. Would just be handy to know the size of the hole I need to fill!? From the link I take it is 30mm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
