Hi

So I had wanted to remove the headlight and realised that I lacked the talent when removing the airbox stumped me!

If anyone is in the South East and feels like lending a hand that would be much appreciated. Of course your time will be rewarded in whisky, beer or both!

Cheers

Thanks very much for that.

It's starting to sound a little complicated hence asking for someone to help.

When you say hold the light tight, do you mean push it upwards towards the ceiling? Or, do you need to somehow get a hand round to hold the inserts in the wing?

Thanks

Thanks Rich

Dave pointing out your video where you show the location of the air box bolts is really helpful. As I couldn't see them at all. So I couldn't remove the air box, and then was stuck!

Cheers

Watching this (completely unrelated) Aston Vantage B is for Build video, made me feel much better: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldBe9q04IHU&t=3s

It took an experienced mechanic 6 hours to remove a power steering pump!

What I did not understand is how a car that is hand built is so hard to work on. I would have thought that there would be more room.
