Post by pgc520 »

Can any one providfe me with the dimensions for the heat shield under the passengers seat, as I believe that they are longer than the 1000 type.

Many thanks <br>Image<br>

I will have a look in the morning to see if I still have a heat shield then if so I can measure it. Without one the passenger's feet stay a bit warmer

Pretty sure I've still got one on one of my cars. I'll have a look for you. Yes they are longer than the later ones, to match the length of the silencer. Think it has a cut out to go round the captive plate for the seat mount.
