Boot floor replacement (aluminium)

<< < (3/6) > >>

4 landies:
 Taken a few out of old vehicles and they have been riveted in and past MOT's that way so dont think there are any legal complications with it.

Shouldn't be a drama - the vehicle isn't a monocoque where the floor pan is the load bearing structure - that's what the chassis is for.  Only problem I could see with it is the seat belt anchorages..........
