I’d have definitely gone with the stainless bolts on the rocker cover. Mine were like yours not much left on the heads of the bolts for me it was a no brainer. I know you want to keep the car as OEM as possible but a few sympathetic upgrades never hurt lol. Lohan do some nice coloured and rainbow bolts too. No doubt if the car the rocker cover will be off again so maybe something you can look at in the future. Enjoying your videos still working my way through them. Keep it up 👍🏻
Hi there, You are probably right to be honest and if I had my time over again I may well have gone with some stainless alternatives. I may even upgrade in the future. Hope the videos are helpful 👍
It is always a good practice to oil the shaft and the lip of the seal so it is lubed for first start up.
Thanks for the advice and for taking the time to watch & share- very much appreciated! ☺

Hey bud. Do you know what yellow paint code/name you have used on your callipers? Cheers bud.
Hi there, I used e-tech calliper paint kit that I bought off ebay for £17.49 I think there is only one yellow colour. Hope that helps bud.

Did you lower the engine to do this mate?
Hi there, no I didn't need to lower the engine just moved as much out of the way to get better access. Cheers
