HSVKILR New Member 15 Member For: 5y 10m 13d Posted 01/07/19 09:51 PM Share Posted 01/07/19 09:51 PM Title pretty well speaks for itself.. I was at it for about 3 hours and could only manage to pull 3 bolts from the manifold to head and I can't find a video/thread anywhere on how tk remove it. If anyone has and little tips and tricks please let me know and also what tools. Cheers lads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just need a replacement panel that's slightly larger so you can screw it down, easy to make. Takes me less than 10min to get the side rails off, liner out, panel off and fuel pump out.
