Ain't Sopers wonderful

[the Nefyn cat]

Just thought I'd mention it, Ordered a pair of handbrake cables from them Friday morning (£30 the pair) and they turned up Tuesday morning. Not bad going at all, and saved me the three hour round trip to Llandudno, nearest BMW dealer. While I'm here, a question for those who've had the back axle out of a Z3, are the big bolts that hold the crossbeam on either side of the car captive, or do I need to dig around behind the seats to find the top end of the bolts? Hope that makes sense.

Looked on the Pellican Parts Tec page, no mention of captive nuts?

They are captive bolts and screw directly into the chassis. We had one undo itself when doing low riders. Added some nylock and wound it back in again

Thank you for that, Mr Hyde, most reassuring. Will be getting on with that once we're back from Ireland. Yep, going to drive it instead of fixing it for a change. Yeeebloominhah.

Sopers are great, quick turnaround both times I've ordered given they will definitely NOT stock a lot of these items on the shelves!
