You know how small things snowball into bigger things?
I've been putting off the drooping mirror syndrome for a bit, and since my driver's window mechanism broke I haven't been able to adjust the mirror when sitting in the car - rendering it useless.. I kept meaning to do something about the mirror and plan to attack the window tomorrow (until i can find the time to take it in for an electric window conversion)...
So, no external rear view mirror + stuck window + rain = fogged up interior. Fogged up interior + cluttered driveway = accident waiting to happen.
So yesterday I reversed the car up the drive, straight into the motorbike I park there! No damage tot he bike but a smashed rear driver's side light cluster
It is (once again - and I see the pattern that's emerging here) it's all my fault, I'm starting to think I don't deserve a TVR as the only issues I have had so far have all been self inflicted!
On the plus side today I came across a NOS set or rear lights for a Mk4 Escort, literally as new condition, in their boxes - so obviously I bought them!
I've also ordered some SMT/LED bulbs as i plan on lightly tinting the lights before fitting them..
