Looking really lovely, Gary!!! :wub:

One of the number plate screws sheered off on me too! FFS!

With one thing and another progress on mine has slowed right down of late.... :-/

Seeing yours gives me some new impetus now though!

Thanks mate,

I don't understand why people never lubricate the screw threads which are open to the elements. I did this when I first got my 190 and the screws have always been easy to remove.

I drilled the screw out today but also ruined the thread in the process. The new screw does bite a bit but easily pulls out. Any ideas how I can cure that?

Glad I have give you some much needed impetus. You are looking to achieve a far superior standard than mine so need to be patient.
