    good at lightening mechanic stuff you mean, taking the angle grinder to the braking circuit isn't really a good idea tho mate lol

    but i want to do it myself mate lol.

    The bloke says theirs normally a 4 bolt pattern one holding the servo, then a 2 bolt pattern holding the master cylinder on. Its one of those things i've never noticed but don't even know if the 4 bolts are inside the engine bay or the cabin side of the bulkhead?

    looks like i'll have to make an adaptor plate to mount the master cylinder to the bulkhead, & that the pedal rod is fitted to the servo so a new rod will have to be made to connect the pedal to the master cylinder. Hmm now wheres the socket set lol
