Sid - just the 16v handbrake cable is needed from Vauxhall at a minimal price of £9.82 plus VAT

It really is literally an hour job to do the rear disk conversion, as it only consists of 1 screwn, and 4 13mm nuts on either side of the car... job jobbed :beer:

bump!

Thats just over £90 then... (£65+15+12) if they are still available at a later date, I will consider it... doing other stuff to car at mo.

 

[Jhonno]

£65?!
