Bits needed. :-)

[silverback mike]

Hi folks,
A few pointers would be appreciated.

The bonnet is catered for but I need
1. Offside wing mirror
2. Windscreen

Being new to TVR's but most happy to hunt to the n'th degree I would appreciate a few hints as to where go find good 2nd hand bits.

I haven't picked the car up yet and I am off on a trail. :banghead:

TIA,
Mike.

PS. For an S3C. :D

Wing mirror...... complete assembly or pick and choose what bit you need from here:-

Windscreen you can get fixed through your insurance by paying the excess or this chap can get you one..... about £160 delivered supply only.

Fixing you can arrange with local windscreen fitter ( I did mine with the RAC for about £55..... needs to be fitted in workshop as its an all day task, make sure they know what they are doing.... take a few pics of body work and interior incase damage is caused)

Well hope this helps...... ps it wont fit an Porker LOL..... new pic required

I will post pics asap.

I've saved a few bookmarks on the PC at home, should be ok to source most of the parts that are needed..

You might want to update your profile from fantasy to current now mate

[silverback mike]

Absolutely.

in plenty coming your way sir.

Incidentally, have spoken to john at ewelme a minute ago, he will do the storage for £150 cash which you cant argue with, and am hoping to get dave up there with a trailer monday.

It's a top day today.

Wasn't yesterday, had to be taken to hospital with ?broken cervical vertebrae C2 and C3 (May mean something to medical types), broken neck to me.
Good news is that it isn't broken, but took a major hammering. Walking a bit like lurch for the next week. So, it was just the news I needed.

Cheers mate, look forward to our beer session.

If you are still struggling on the windscreen Autoglass have a few knocking about...

Might also be worth picking up the phone to www.tvrcarparts.com

[silverback mike]

I will be like a man posessed as soon as it's on my drive on Monday. Cheers podie.

If You have an S3 you will neeed the Citroen mirrors use www.brodie.co.uk they are citroen parts supliers , much much cheaper than anywere else and very helpful.

[silverback mike]

Citroen. nooooooooo, don't tell me they use citroen bits, I have just got rid of a xantia, possibly the worst car in the world.

[Psychobert]

Ermm.. Only the mirrors.. Its the nearside you need, not the offside. I'll dig out and send along a ful list of bits once I've got home..

[silverback mike]

Cheers Simon,
If you are Bristol home rather than Sheffield, a few of us are around the baileys court for a few beers, it would be nice to see you.

[Psychobert]

Just packed up from Bristol and about to head back up north I'm afraid. Will catch you next week though..

[silverback mike]

Look forward to it. I'll call you when its on the driveway.
