Well this guy's feeling quite foolish for not thinking of that. Sounds like a solution I can make happen. Thanks particlewave. I've been trying to see if I could find the assembly and it's not...

I don't put the car in gear, just not a habit of mine, and if I started doing it I'd have several instances of forgetting that I did so when I start the car. If I had to park on a steep enough...

Before buying my house, I used to have to park the car in the driveway. Usually it was always parked farthest in since it saw the least use, but this time I felt lazy and didn't want to juggle all...

No problem, Whippy. The only thing I was wondering is if maybe your surround was in place but missing the perspex piece, as you call it. If you can see that small stud on the bottom of the roll...
