TuxMan Carbon Tray

Has anyone got any photo of one that is fitted to the car?

I think I need to trim mine a bit and maybe make the holes around the wipers bigger to let the washer hose fit though.

I though I'd ask 1st before I started hacking away.

I'm not with the car at the moment, but i did what you are suggesting, i filed the holes with a small round file to create a keyhole shape to give clearance for the small diameter washer hose.

Will try and get a picture over the weekend.

Yes, I found you need to elongate the holes for the washer feed pipes.

Thanks guys.
I've order some grommets and Dremel, so I'll get the old girl fitted next time I'm at the garage.

tbh Simon I reckon it's the best thing you've done in many ways as for many of us this just simply does not exist in any other form and once fitted you realize how messy the car looks with out it.

With the clam shut look at that beautiful CF peeking out.
Kinda reminds me of a nip slip out of a bikini top at the beach.

Hi Simon
Looks like a nice bit of kit are you still selling them if so how much for

[2.5bluenob]

i really want one of these as they really show up the plastic one ive got.
But i have to resist. my spending on my nob has got out of control lately and i need to reel it in.

[PaulM12]

Could be down for one of these too if they are still being made / another run is on the cards

[CaptainJp]

It's a lovely looking thing, thanks again to Simon for making the part.

On a side note does anyone know the size and grade of the black rubber washer hose is that runs up the wiper arm?

When I removed my wiper blades I noticed one was split, so I need to order a bit more.

No Problems mate , the reason I made it was because I hated the hole that is left without it !! im pretty sure I got a bit of hose from Halfords !!
