Well got my car home and thought i would take a few photos and also a bit of a how to.
HOWTO BONNET SOUND DEADENER
Tools required (2 Pairs of Hands)
1st open the bonnet
Then
Get 2nd pair of hand to hold the bonnet open as if you try to thread the prop through the sound pad you will not be able to put the tabs in the back edge of the bonnet.
Next
Slot the tabs into the back edge of bonnet
Then
Squeeze the clip together and push them into the holes that are in the bonnet
Job done stand back and look at the neighbours looking at you messing with your new toy (oh and at your handywork)
Time to do the job less than 5mins.

HOW TO SEL LOWER GRILL
Tools required

A flat blade screwdriver with making tape wound around the tip to prevent scratching.
Before
1st
Remove the foglight covers to do this place the hook device that is in the boot into the little holes in the foglight and pull forward get your finger in the gap and pull! they come off really easy
Then get your flat blade screwdriver and insert into the holes in the bumper where the grill tags are gently lever the tab across to the centre of the car while pulling forward on the grill.
Once the tabs are free place your fingers through the grill and sharply tug the grill forward.

Got a wet right arm and window switch this morning I got in the car rolled the window down to chat to my neighbour and splosh aload of water off the roof ran straight onto my arm and window switches! From now on i will ignore my neighbour and chat when i get home.
Cannot be good for the switch to get wet like that so mopped it up with a paper towel.
