Alex wrote:These would have been handy on the RBR as I smashed a light.The stone went straight through and smashed the bulb too! The hole in the light is huge and the stone inside is pretty big so they would have saved me. Fortunately Tim Hunt kindly loaned me a spare light unit saving me from having to tape a torch on my bonnet ;D what a story ! ;D

cliftyhanger wrote:The 063 battery as fitted to lots of cars will fit well. The terminals are at the back (away from the battery clamp) and all cables connect. You will need longer battery clamp J bolts though. The 075 battery is a bit bigger, and usually a fair bit more expensive, hence my preference for the 063 in the UK they are available from £30 (bosch basic version) http://www.racshop.co.uk/car-battery/product/bosch-s3-car-battery-063.html i had a bosh fitted when i bought my car, and i think it's the same one .. :)
