Dunno, I think normally you need to alter the headlight brackets to adjust the headlights, never tried to use the fuel tank before





A bird in the hand....

Hi mate, saw this post and thought it might be you.

Re: the fuel tank, I've looked it up now and it says at point 12 in 03a (Fuel tanks)

"The fuel tank must be fitted with a vent (to permit release of a pressure build up) which does not exit on to the exhaust or into the vehicle or be situated at a height that fuel would be likely to leak when the vehicle is driven"

I might be wrong but I think how you have it now they might say "exits into the vehicle"? I could be wrong but that's how I see it?

I'll email you in a sec with that other stuff.

Yeah I think day to day driving would be fine, it's just if it rolled?

I think is where I saw the problem referred to and got the one way valve idea.

For the headlights you'll need a tintop, a garage door and a roll of masking tape (or chalk)

They should let you tweak the aim at IVA on their machine to get it spot on, so take the appropriate spanner with you.
