I'd appreciate a pic thanks.
side screens - At some point, I had a bit of thin carpet between them.. but to be honest, mine are 10+yrs old so I care about them to a degree.
I also put some rubber non slip mat over the plastic in the boot to stop the boot getting damaged by the metal bits on the screens.

Hi Chris
My car is around 14 years old... I have had it for around 4 years so they are both "getting on a bit"!
I hope you can see images
The primer pump is quite close to the bottom of the diff but on the same side as the swirl pot. If the background of the swirl pic you can see the
outboard section from the chassis, the suspension arm and the wheel.
The swirl pot is mounted on two alloy brackets made from strip alloy from B&Q. I pre-cut and fitted the brackets to the swirlpot at the
intersection between the chassis and the bulkhead as low as possible - it misses by around 15mm. I sanded and abraded the surfaces and then blind
bonded the swirl pot brackets inplace with some high strength flexible adhesive whilst they were attached to the swirlpot.... and put a single bolt at
the top for safe measure :-).
All the pipes on the swirl pot were 10mm feeds so I had to get reducers down to 8mm.
When I next take the wheels off I should be able to get some better pics though this could be a while! I need to start driving the car again rather
than having it sit in my shed.
Cheers
Alex
