Thanks to PaulW75.

Is it a fit yourself job smash or should I leave it to the experts ?

Just make sure the viewing glass seal is tight my one was not tight enough and leaked under pressure.

It's a very easy fit.

Thanks, will I have to replace/extend the hoses?

I didn't need to but I did have to modify one of the fixing points but that was just a bit of flat ally with two holes in it.

They DO come in black.....but your engine bay is very different to mine so maybe you've gone for the right colour!

Where do you get the thin foil for around the intercooler box? I'm looking for something that thin to replace the section on the back clam and possibly do the intercooler box also. Bought some stuff last week but its fairly thick.

They disguise details like that in ENORMOUS lettering on the side of the product itself!

It' fitted straight on to the existing fittings, you just need a length of hose for the vent next to the cap.

As for the alloy inter cooler surround this was all ready fitted when I purchased the car.
