Doing another one on Tuesday, and have advised the owner that it can take about 5 hrs - always like to prepare owners with some margin and then sometimes the headlights need a polish too.

Dave mentioned he had some sort of work around for those pesky torx, will be interesting to hear his words of wisdom.

Keep well
Hi Mike.
I have it up on the work around in the post above with the photo, you leave the torx in place and pull the slam panel off the rubber connections, leaving the plastic sections attached to the slam panel.

Then the trick is to trim down the rubber connections, add some rubber grease or vaseline to them then when you come to re-fit the slam panel it will push back on nicely
