I took the top dash off recently to recover. take the Radio section totally out of the way it helps when the centre buttons are swung down. Once that's done then its 8 screws and your done. The hardest part is the front window vent tubes when you go to refit them but if you remove the cardboard unde...

Thank you. I’ll have a look

Can I just check for a s2 when it’s cold what should the levels be in the expansion tank and radiator. I’m sure the radiator is meant to be full it’s more the expansion tank?

So the issue I had was with the dash top (where the vents are) I got the material and the glue from BAS in Wales. Great company used them a few times :)

Guys what would you recommend to use to stick the door seals around the bottom of the sill in with? One of mine has come loose in a part so need to stick it back in again. Available in the uk please I have found this and wondering if it’s the right stuff?? I’m thinking this stuff?? https://www.ebay....

I have managed to get the dash out, recovered and then back in again. All chuffed with myself :)

Hi Guys.I have a crack in the dash :( I have ordered the new replacement material from BAS and also removed the dash top ready to get to work when it arrives. My one question I need help with is what's the best way to refit the hoses for the window demist when it comes to that time? It's a series 2 ...

Hey guys. The front jaguar badge on the s2 isnt looking the best anymore. I would like to take it apart and refurb it, is that even possible? If not which is the best replacement for it?

Yea i get that but i am just curious if they make much more of a difference as they are pretty much useless lol. I will order the better wiper blades. Have you fitted the updated wiper arms? Much of a difference??

I see they have cheaper one and then ones at 25 each. Just wondering if there were worth doing or are the arms the key to it? Windscreen is clean its more for the rainshowers which seem to be around alot this summer in NI!

Hi guys. Can anyone recommend what window wipers they use on a s2 fhc please. The ones on it are done and tbh were never very good anyway so after a recommendation?

Just to close this off I ordered the glue mentioned and it fixed the issue 100%. Thanks for the tip and I will be doing the back trim in the winter :)

Perfect thanks. Found it on amazon and ordered:)

Thanks guys for all the advise. Can you point me in the direction of the good superglue u recommend ie amazon or something? Also the 3m glue also recommended so I can get them ordered before it’s next show on the 5th?

Hi guys been a while since I have been online due to the car being stored most of last yr :( but now it’s back :) I need to refit a small part of rubber trim that is between the chrome bumpers and the bodywork. What glue would be suitable for this? Also I have a larger piece that needs done in the b...

just wanted to say thanks. Got the boot rubbers all replaced- look so much better. I also got the badges off and spent all day yest polishing it. Its looking great atm. After another coat of wax i will put them back on :). I bought the plastic holders for the badges but it doesn't look like i needed...

Perfect thanks so much for that. I'll have another go and see how I get on. At least they can be replaced- just hope the pin doesn't come off the badge!!!

Tbh i don't have one. I would be willing to do some jobs and have done but this bit of trim worries me lol. Really don't want to damage the badges etc so thats why I'm being extra careful and asking questions

ill have another look again tomorrow. It one of those thing i guess you could be right re the glue- you just never know!
