Ford Fiesta tailgate removal?
Alistair Dore
I've lost my Haynes manual.
Looks like I have to pull back roof trim to get to some bolts in roof?
Thanks

small switch a safe distance away.
When you're satisfied that no one is around, press the switch and walla - no
more problems with the boot :-)
On the other hand, you could donate the car to me and I'll take the boot off
for you and return it to you if you really like it that much!!
Yours,
Bryan Lurring

Oh, flippion eck Bryan, you in here too? :-(
Just a warning to everyone, this chap is a 16 year old who may (I can't
say for myself) be in the business of conning people. I suggest you
check out uk.adverts.computer.mac for a current thread.
And as for the first statement here, it's a bit of a sick joke, living
in Northern Ireland.

FFS - this is really pissing me off now!
The god damn debt has been bloody well paid off in full. If you'd actually
bothered to read the previous postings correctly. So, give it a rest mate
before I get very pissed off and do something further about it.
So, if you don't want to loose any money (libel is expensive) I suggest you
do not publicly accuse me of being something I'm not. OK?

It was a light hearted comment and not meant to be taken seriously!
Alistair Dore
Light hearted or not these are the facts:-
The Fiesta in question is my wifes
It is her only method of transporting our kids and getting to work, bearing
in mind public transport doesn't keep the same hours as a nurse on shift
This family can just about afford to replace the tailgate from a scrap yard
at present, we are having financial difficulties which don't allow us to
change this shitty little roller skate handbag car for something half
decent.
My wife actually likes it
If you dont have anything constructive to say, please do us all a favour and
fuck off.
AJ
P.S. If my reply upsets you maybe Mummy can make you a glass of warm milk
before you toddle off to bed?

Yeah right. I make no claims myself, I just offered an source of
information so that people can check for themselves.

I'm not accusing you of anything, I am stating a well known fact. OK,
it's from your past, and perhaps you didn't actually get caught, I don't
know, I stopped reading your posts and threads after a while at the
time.
I do know that there was a lot of doubt about your hoentsy at the time,
and it's only fair to warn people that there is a possibility they might
be ripped off.
I seem to have read a few posts in the Mac newsgroup that suggest your
antics are still continuing.
I really can't believe that after your past alleged offences, that your
don't even bother to change your identity.

It was still sick.

You said it, it's from the past. I couldn't get caught because I was DOING
NOTHING WRONG. So for god's sake, let the matter drop and let me get on with
my life and I'll let you get on with yours.

FFS - I have never ripped anyone off before and don't intend to. The sooner
you get that through your thick heads the better.

What god damn antics? Stuart Bell simply has a personal vendetta against me
for some unknown reason.

I'm proud of who I am and if you don't like it then shove it. I've always
been known by my own name which I believe is the honest thing to do unlike
some people.
> It was still sick.
Whatever you say. It was a JOKE - get that into your head while you're at
it.

Well said.

FWIW, I can't help much with your question, I guess you'll have to
remove the roof lining a bit at the rear - you might get a bit of access
by removing the boot seal first.
ISTR that these are fixed at the front and hooked in at the rear.
That's about all, apart from, do it carefully,
Alistair Dore
BUT does anyone know how to get the tailgate off this roller skate?

Oh, so that's who it was. Now that is a person that has a lot of respect
in the Mac community, I am sure he had a good reason. I did manage to
read enough of those old posts to get an inckling of what was happening,
I'm not sure exactly what you were doing, but there is no smoke without
a fire.

Honest eh? hmmmm.

I'm sorry, but threatening with things like semtex just don't register
as a joke.

Did you ever think that some people might abuse the respect they have? Ie.
Mr Mandelson (I don't think I need to say anything more). Mr Bell just has
some grudge against me for some reason and refuses to forget about it. I
have grudges against many people but I don't go round ruining people's
reputation for no reason.
Actually, smoke can be produced without flames. My Lada Samara manages to do
that quite well. I was doing absolutely nothing wrong, all I did was be a
little late at paying off a debt which has now been settled.

Threatening? What are you on about now. If you can explain how on earth my
post was threating I'll salute you. How on earth you work that one out is
beyond me.
Do you honestly think that I'd use my real name and continue to use it if I
was a con artist?
You obviously haven't thought about that.
Bryan Lurring
BTW - How on earth could anyone possibly con someone else by simply cracking
a joke?
Alistair Dore
Cut two small holes in roof lining and undid bolts there,(two each hinge)
Worst job was trying to solder wires for wash-wipe etc outside on a cold
blowy day! However got there in the end.
I now have a green rollerskate with a blue tailgate.
Cheers

Try selling the design to Nike or Reebock :-)
