Not really, there's a few more little things to unclip / unbolt as you take the dash off but nothing significantly different.________________________________________ Rich |

Yes, as Rich correctly says BEHR matrixes were fitted to all cars which had AC from the factory. ![]() ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |
