id imagine the lock would just get disconnected , refitted to the new one then connected once the grill is back in.
probably a tutorial/guide to doing it on some club somewhere!

the grill only has the flip badge , the lock is not actully on the grill . btw 35mm ant as low as you would think , if you want it sittign low you need to go 50 min on the back , and about 40 on the frount , and the chrome grill comes on the ghia , dont know how it comes off or anythink , i think its just stuck on . have a look at my post on here , iv done a few bits to mine , putting in a new gearbox just now tho :( lol cunt of a thing to do!

Some distressing news!



I awoke this morning to find my car covered in permenent marker pen. the c320 was also covered. It looked like picasso had arrived at my house in the night.

After an hour or so and many cursed words later its all off. It was on every body panel and all over the new rims. The little sod/sods must have been sitting around scribbling for at least half an hour.

Thats the trouble with modding cars you always get jelous little dick who wanna deface everything.



GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR im agrivated and so is my dad about his merc!

.:ace:.
01-31-2008, 01:08 PM
its all off now but the merc suffered worse. it was "more permenent" and aint really budging.


the fucus will fight another day, but i just dont want it to be a key next.

Theyll see its gone and try it again with something else i reckon, stay out, hide where you cant be seen, they approach it, hit them with fucking steel poles and draw all over their faces :D
