If you get taxed it won't be straight away.
Usually the carrier pays it then bills you at a later date.

OK so I also recieved mine in the post today!

Passenger side fitted really well, and very simple to fit (2 bolts)

Drivers fitted the same, really easy just two bolts. wow, a simple mod that I can do myself!

Then tried to close the bonnet and it wouldnt go all the way down, couldnt see what the issue was and then spotted that the gas strut was hitting this...

not sure what it is im afraid,m but that stops the bonnet from closing...

Am I the only one to have this issue? or have I done something wrong

I tried turning the strut around but that made no difference to it! If I was filing then I would have to file 1cm in and about an inch down!!! surely there is something important in there?

heres how its mounted (just the brackets as the ram is off right now)

im thinking about making the braket smaller so it sits flush with the inside of the wing and not over the wires!?
