Yeah I was wrong the bolts are hidden... in other news would anyone be interested in a joblot including two swifts. one a genuine gti but the shell has had it.. and a 1.0 shell that is solid. the gti shell has a stainless cat back exhaust and koni shocks on the back. engine and gearbox are solid. £600 for the lot.. text 07889543854 for more info.

just being careful is the key I think... you know anyone that would want to buy my project off me?

here are the holes... once you get the first one you are okay. pilot 4mm hole or so then carefully use a 10mm bit to open it up.
