    drive shafts and cv joints

    thanks. I have the audi A 8 box and the fitting is similar .The only difference is an adaptor plate which doesnt appear in your photos. The adaptor plate fits between the box and cv joint .The bolts that hold this on are the ones that are giving me grief. the photos are good and helpful

    Have been to MDA who have mounting rings to fit the concave lights at 105 UK pounds however, these will have to be attacked with a jig saw to get them into the space required, the light area of the mda was much larger than in my rf!!
