13 looks related to the trim that travels up the edge of the door?

 

14 is in the box with the moulding you've just replaced.

Just noticed that.

14 isn't the clip that's broken :/

 

There's 2 parts on that assembly without part numbers on the front weatherstrip to the right of number 14

MOT coming up again! End of August it expires.

 

Just ordered x2 Mintex brake discs for the front with a set of Mintex pads.

I could have ordered some unbranded drilled / grooved discs off of eBay but... I value my life.

 

Car valeted last week. Got a couple pics to upload.

Annoyingly a neighbour jet washed his car in the street and has covered mine in shampoo and wax which has dried sticky!

New discs and pads up front. So much better.

 

What should have been a 30minute swap ended up in a 2hour ordeal.

The two phillips head screws holding the disc to the hub had seized. Both sides.

 

Spent a lot of time with a big 'mer tying to shock them loose but all we really managed to do was almost ruin the screw heads with various screwdrivers.

 

In the end we had to tap an oversized phillips bit in and use an extension bar to crack them loose, which worked nicely.

 

Also, sounds like I have a blow in the exhaust somewhere towards the back. Probably the backbox seal since it's was bodged on by the previous owner. So not sure now whether to get Toyo catback or a stocker system.

 

Still on the lookout for new shockers and springs as well!

 

I'm terrible for pictures guys!  8-)

Thanks to all the guys messaging me about shocks and springs, much appreciated.

 

My MOT expiration date is rocketing towards me so I've had to work on a few things... and a few things yet to work on.

 

So far it's had new discs and pads up front. Stops like a dream.

 

My exhaust is blowing so I need this fixed asap. A Toyosports cat back will do nicely.

 

And my latest investment will be here next week.

About damn time I hear you cry!? I know. 18 months. I'm sorry.
