#2Yeah get the wing mirrors sprayed aswell. It won't look as good if you've got the whole car colour coded but there are still black bits on the mirrors. -

#4hello mate, the gromits can be purchased from halfords for a couple of £ , buy the multi pack box of gromits, think they are £2.69. Just make sure on the inside of the rubber gromit you seal it so water doesnt leek inside. Iused clear sealent.
No need to go to a specialist place..... although you can purchase the parts from a pugeot dealer for a 106 which fits in the saxos wiper hole aswell.
Washer plug + nut
not 100% of the part numbers for these but they are floating about somewhere......
as for mirrors, id leave them with just the colour coded mirror caps or get some DTM mirrors and get those colour coded, either way looks good. -
#5cheers. will be going to halfrauds then. and as for the price, it's £200 dead. but it's my dads mate so he doin me a deal. i will get pics up as soon as i get the car back. can't wait tho!
