Took a drill to the Exige

Post by DJ » Sat Sep 21, 2013 5:06 pm

Did the soft top conversion today. Very easy to do. Most of the time is taken up in having the confidence to start drilling your car! Prefer the look with the hard top but gives me the roof off option when I want it.

Very good - always wondered about that.

wee tip for you when you are drilling - put a vacuum nozzle under the drill bit & theres no mess !
