Haynes manuals are anything butThere're plenty of words telling you what to do, but NOT HOW TO FUCKING DO IT! I've lost count of the number of times I've tried to unclip a door panel or piece of trim without knowing how (until after I break at least one retaining clip).
Thank goodness for internet forums and the lovely people who create photo-guides for all of these jobs!

there were only 2 colours,Baby shit beige and loud Orange. In the charmless days of Luton in the 1970s, the orange was known as "wog red" due to the colour's apparent attraction to West Indians.
Yes really.
