If the curvature is different as well ( I wasn’t sure) then I would try to confirm fitment of s1 corners before shelling out mate.

Remember to use a none setting sealant mate, you wouldn’t be the first to stick em in permanently lol

TBH Dave, the curvature difference is minimal and could be just down to me nipping up one end too tight before locating the other end properly. "cack-handed Keith" is how my dad often described me 🤣
 
Got busy today after having the hump about the bastard who dinked my door

. Gave her a bit of a buffing

. Adjusted rear camber to max. Need to upgrade the bolts to get a bit more adjustment, as it's still out somewhat.

. Fitted a clock. The hassle outweighed the benefit but, it meant I could remove the black tape off the screen. Took the feed from the Auto DJ supply.

. Hard wired in the foot well lights (just on a usb before-too many trailing cables)

. Wired in the step lights properly as the previous owner lashed them up. Fronts off of the map light circuit. Rears off of the over door lamp circuit.

I was going to have a pop at the steering wheel controls into my Pioneer head unit, but it got too dark and working using my phone torch had caned my battery.

Just fitted my new window bolts.

Whilst having a look at the today I thought hang on a bit.
The Japanese always overengineer everything on an Elgrand so had a look at the catch.

So out with the Dremel
A little plastic remove and hey presto
Easy access to the screw.

You don't see it when the window is closed and anyway the curtain covers it.

What if @speedyg and @RuskinStreet did a corner light swap.

The biggest problem @LeStempy is the fact that the S1 apears to have both brake & tail lights in the light bar, the S2 only has tail lights. S1 to S2 is less of an issue apart from the fact I cannot get my tail lights in the recessed sockets on the bar. Bit of hacking about to do o_O
