Hi tc hope your well mate do you still have the tracs switch and to the left of that is a little slatted thing I think it's the interior temperature sensor as mine is has been smashed in. Oh and the dashboard dimmer switch as mine doesn't stay in the dash at the bottom it just falls out.

I will try and have a look tomorrow, fairly sure I've still got these.. If you've not heard back from me in a day or two pm me as I'm snowed under at the minute.

Is the twin-exit an aftermarket one, or was it retro-fitted with a P3 rear section? I'd be keen to keep in touch, as a back-up plan!

cheers

James

It was apparently one of the first cars to be fitted with the ph3 system James, systems still sat here if you're interested.

It's got surface rust (haven't they all) but it seems pretty solid. The only downside is I couldn't get the back section to seperate from the centre pipe so I ended up partially cutting though the pipe about 2 inches past the clamp on the rear section. I didn't get all the way through as at that point the centre section just fell off( really wasn't impressed by that as it was solid before). It should weld back up really easily, If your still interested then how's £80?..

Let me know what you think.

I will pass that on. We're currently seriously contemplating just straight-piping it, actually The original will probably weld up, too, but it's a bit crusty here and there. I'll have a chat with the owner tomorrow.

cheers

James
