Im looking for basic advise on how to replace the fairings on me grif.
Ive been meaning to change my crazed ones ever since I brought the car, but now I really have to. Whilst changing the dip beam bulb, the lamp fell into the front of the headlamp pod. I managed after a couple of hours to relocate it, but in so doing have scratched the paintwork and left debris in the void.
Can the fairing be taken out through the front of the car? I cant see any other way of doing it!!
Advice eagerly awited.

Cheers.

Hi I've tried finding the bristol guide with no success, but have a look here www.WARKS-TVR.ORG.UK

Having just taken mine out to clean an reseal I wrote a small guide about it. yes they do come out how easy will depend on how well they are stuck in seems obvious but getting them free .. But putting them back and sealing back up isn't that tricky so give it a go.

I think Leven Tech have got some new covers in, so worth a try.. give me a PM if you have any question I'd be happy to help.

Edited to say the file in the 'tech tips' section along loads of other great stuff!

Simon,

Im still getting the grin. Ive done 11000miles worth of pretty trouble free driving since owning the Grif.
Couldnt find the article that you advised, but then I can never find towels in the airing cupd.

The WARKS-TVR link was idiot proof and the instructions look pretty much the same. just about to source some new clear fairings.

Thanks both for your helps.

Graham.
