i just looked on the hockly website and there is 2 kits 1 for fast road use 38quid, and 1 for rally use taht is 68quid, would the fast road kit be ok for a let conversion? the rally kit looks like all rear beam bits aswell so prob wont need them. cheers for that pic, thats proper useful.

indeed i got a kit from them a few months back fits like a glove! it was on the shelf over night carrage and service was excelent but if i had the pic posted earlier in the thread i would have fitted all the plates! :) :)

yea i think i would rather get the hockly kit as they know what they doin when comes to novas, and cant moan at that price, will prob just get full kit but just do the front end plates so i can get engine in and running then do the rear plates over the winter with a few other bits i wanna do. cheers for the help and pic, has helped loads.
