Mines on the 4th July, the car's finished, less for the mirrors, but I can't help looking over it and wondering have I left any edges ! What have I missed ?

Good luck.

You could start by doing what my tester in Chelmsford did - just stood there, giving it a good looking over front and back. He then walked all round the car, running his hand over all the edges and so forth. Didn't even bother to get his gauges out - but I had put a lot of effort into dealing with all the edges.

Just make sure that all your lights are the correct distance from the WIDEST part of the car (usually the back). Many have been caught out by front indicators that are more than the required distance from the widest part at the back!

Have a great time - it's nowhere near as bad an experience as you think.
