OK, collecting or post?

Paypal gifted to manxdavid@yahoo.co.uk or COD would work best.

I just sent it off but missed the last collection for today so you'll probably get it Wednesday.

I just realised I left out the spring for under the horn cap. I'll drop it in the post next week.

??? That's a new one on me, it's the #3565 kit and only comes with a length of wire and a crimp connector (which I'll send with the spring).

I've never seen parts like that in a Grant kit. The wire that comes up the centre of the column just crimps onto the new little wire that pushes onto the connector on the fibre horn contact.
