Very nice job, on a difficult part.

Hi John, Happy to help; There is a good community on this forum
and I've received lots of help & co-op during my build.
If you are going to use Bedford CF Van rear lights lenses on the panel,
search for "Bedford Blitz" on Ebay which should bring up european sources.
There seems to be more stock in Europe than the UK.
When you see the prices, you'll probably wish you could make them yourself as well ;-)
Long overdue update:
I made the decision to renew the hinge arms and bushes only, not the top and bottom mounts:

The Hinge mounts now have an under-plate with captive nuts to reduce flex, the plate that runs down the side of the car is thicker metal and extends down further.

Bottom mount is adjustable to get the right level of negative pressure.

The passenger side needed a hack as the actuator motor fouled the body, on the drivers side the actuator motor faces backwards so no hack needed.

Sorry Steve, the same happens to me.
Also, I deleted my dropbox account a while ago (hackers )
