I'm 99% i have a fuse panel, centre console (airbag one) and std gearknob!

Mr Mole can be OK well at least his prices are realistic.

Yes windleys are pricey but then I do a lot of work for them so get on well with them.
Greg where do you live? assumed you were in lincoln!

oh my god, what a wanker windley is. i went today to get a drivers side handle to finnish delocking,

and he said 'what you want'

i said that i needed a handle for my corsa. he said what type or handle, i said that i needed a delocked one, he said he didnt have any which he did cos i got one last week, and need one more to finnsh, then he tried to tell me he didnt let just anyone down the yard anymore cos ges had loads of damage done.

to a scrap yard

he was just being a total prick telling me that a cavvy rear door handle wount fit, so i told he bollox, and went.

what a wanker. and he charges the earth too

I doubt you have ever met roger windley!

They have stopped letting a lot of people down the yard due to damge, theft and health and safety.

I've got a black corsa sport on speedlines.

Health, safety and liability are big issues in modern society I think we are all aware of that.
I doubt theres many people who frequent scrapyards regularly who can honestly say they have never stolen anything either no matter how small.
Damage is the one that most people overlook though but it is a big issue.

yeah i know, he was just being a real wanker about it!

never mind, never seen the bloke there before!

ainsley can you get hold of a cavvy rear door handle for me mate?

damage to what, scrap cars? yeah and im sure most people lnow the risk when they go into a scrap yard. all they need to do is put up a notice. but never mind, will they let me down if i tell them exactly what i want?

Depends a bit who you speak to and how you speak to them.
If only youd replied earlier just come from there. Got to go back Monday to pick a cheque up for some work I did for Roger so I will sit what I can do then.
What do you want just 1 straight rear cav handle and back plate? Did he give you a price?

All sorts
Did cambelt, full service on Rogers Jeep and steering rack on his wifes Jaguar.

Then just rebuilt Jims VX220. You may have seen it in the car park? Jim's the gingerish bushy haired one behind the counter, sure you will have seen him.
