My electric Aerial bust at the weekend, was taking a look when noticed that it was pretty easy for small items to fall into the botton of the quarters from the boot. Had a feel about and found a 17mm spanner rattling around one side and a 17mm socket the other! Also found a coke bottle and a pool of water where the drain grommet/hole was all gunked up. Definately worth checking tio see what you can find - and to make sure that the water is draining away properly!

On a related note, I've been attacking Hordak's arches with underseal this weekend. I would strongly recommend anyone to do this. Mitsubishi's rust proofing and undersealing leaves a lot to be desired, particularly when you remove the front wheel arch liners!

I've only managed to do one side of the car, so I'll take some photos when I do the other.

I have a 12mm spanner lodged in the rear panel of my car; I know this because I dropped it there - by accident ! - when refitting my rear lights after tinting them :$

Thankfully it doesnt ratlle, so I guess it will lay there until it disintegrates into nothing !
