Good job I didn't try it then.

Ta for that. Be handy if I can clamp onto them as well. To keep a hand free for the key fob. Cheers

That would be handy but I might have to wait a while to get someone to come over. But as my torx keys and VW jack are in the boot I might need a few days to get all the bits I need. :)

Thanks for that. Hopefully I can see the alternator/starter from underneath, and see the wires leading to them. I've got some twin and earth I presume would be ok. Would a car battery charger work in place of a jump pack? I mean the ones you would leave them charging for hours.

Mottie guessed it and robin. I left the bonnet up. Locked it then shut the bonnet. Won't do that again.

You think I might be able to get to the cable? That'll do for me.

The lock works fine it's the handle that isn't doing us job. Cheers

Unfortunately the battery isn't connected.

I saw a couple of videos about that this evening. Air wedge they're called apparently. You have to prize it open a little to start with apparently. I might see if I can in the morning. Not sure what to use as a jemmy though.

Thanks very much.

Fair enough The steels about 4m 180kg No services. Ground is ok Below joist height No covering needed. No plaster No filling All the materials and plant are there waiting. Cheers

Any idea how much someone might charge for putting in a steel? I'm not sure my insurance company is happy with the customer working on their own house. A very rough guess will do?

I think they're about £300. I don't use them enough for that. £15 to hire. I need 4 though.
