First job this week was the installation and testing of the panel light.  Next, panelling the O/S began with the one l immediately in front of the O/S rear wheel. The next panel is in front of the tank so required some complex cutting out.  I reused a round casting from the MW to bead the opening in front of the fuel gauge, but this will need some final adjustment to fit.  As I progressed with the panelling I found that a small alignment error had crept in which I should have eliminated earlier, so the final panel next to the driver’s door had to be cut to an odd shape, keeping in mind the cuto out for the foothold and the hole for the wiring to the indicator.  However the error in aligning the panels will be hidden beneath the beading so not a great problem, just annoying.  Use of panel sealant meant I couldn’t easily remove a panel to correct the error once fitted.
