Ok, you have probably covered it before but how do you fit the sierra wiper motor and the screen as in mounting it so the hood meets it..... and a heater do you bother? and which do u fit? mini maybe? thanks in anticipation. Graham.

[Guest Ian & Carole]

Bin the sierra wiper system in favour of a Mini system.

 

Mini heater works well, some fit the sierra blower to the mini heater box for more umph.

 

We have the mini heater and fan without any probs.

Mini wipers here plus heater standard mini one , there is a magic measurement for fitting the hood , measurement X from top of screen to the rear of the car which eludes for the moment but someone will come up with it nodoubt .

 

Check here Graham for your Model ID http://nw.rhocar.org/identification.htm

Exmo model according to the link, thanks very much, a good or bad model??

[Longboarder]

They're all good Graham, it's just that some are gooderer than others. None of them are worsest. Exmo is lighter than the current 2B, stainless steel monocoque chassis, standard sierra rear suspension and uses the front ARB from the sierra which makes the front suspension a bit too stiff. Main worry with stainless is it is slightly brittle so you should check round the top mount of the front shockers for any cracking. I'm in Plymouth but your local group is Bristol based. Welcome to the club.
