Bugger, you got a ball park figure for doorcard? You can inbox me if that is a better option/route.
They cost me around R1400 if old cards are used for the 4 front ones about R400 @ and back ones R300@ so if he needs to cut new it will be more

This now fascinates me, a man of Oom Bugger's experience fitting petrol filter in engine compartment (or is that something else? I am using a phone to view site). Why this route Bugger when most scream for petrol filter to be installed away from engine?

I like to swim up stream
No that is just a coiled hose that was lying on top of the motor whenI was buzy fitting the fuel hose
That filter is fitted where it is supposed to be fitted underneath the shell where the 6mm pipe comes out off the chassis with a short hose and then connected to a steel hose
that run from the back through the plastic grommet in the back engine plate around the fan housing and in to a rubber hose joinning the fuel pump
Thanks Retrovan I was trying to make it look like the Factory look when it was bought new as it is not a bling machine
