Hole saw did a really neat job, even the cheap ebay one seemed to cope easily with the fibreglass body without tearing at the edges.

Yep, done my rear lights fine the other day. Next question for you is regarding steering column.
Did you have to cut a slot in the dash to allow the column up to go where you wanted it?

  The steering wheel is at about the same height it was in the full bodied beetle, I did have to cut a slot in the dash.

   All done apart from the rear seat, insured through Flux for £87 for the year, 12 months free tax and 12 months mot. 20 months ago it was a rotten unloved beetle.

Well done.

Mines basically ready to go once the wiring is finished, booked for may 2nd then i can bolt it all up and should be done. Yours is looking good, i need some wiper arms and blades and wondering what size you used?
