Not got a clue, I thought all the screens were the same, it must have had a screen at some point as it's part of it

Ahhhh I see, I like the look of the slight fade as it goes down the windscreen. May have to hit a pigeon or something!

was going to be a small update but had some time spare and weather was good for a change so been busy all day, first when i bought the van it looked like mice had been eating the soundproofing on the bulkhead, looked a right mess, Image

so 10mins and £20 later all neat and tidy again

Image

At last i managed to fit my lowering kit

before
Image

and after
Image

slight difference i'm sure you'll agree made up it looks a load better just got to fiddle about with the height a bit to get it just right, and it is possible to do it on your own on the drive but wouldn't recommend it, also changed the knocking cv joint took most of the afternoon as had to take the drive shaft off and take to mates garage to use heat and bigger hammer lol. it was well stuck on.

gave it a much needed wash loving the way it drives now its lowered, unfortunately someone scraped the rear bumper in works car park, but all caught on cctv and will be sorted when it goes in to have the door and the bonnet sorted, still looking for a set of touran mirrors though
