As the title says - just about to get some ERG blanking plates and just wonder about the pros and cons - if any - of when they are fitted - not having any problems at the moment or in the last 5+ years so not in a rush to fit them.

Re: Rear Heater bypassed and hose kinked
Yes it is - when I replaced mine I was luckly just around the corner from Wheel Quicks. I would try the likes of Jas, Bongobits or do they sell them in the shop ?

Re: Exhausts -- Petrol 2.0 litre
If you went to Kwikfit you would end up getting the new exhaust section and......................in their opinion you would also need new 4 new tyres, brake pads, shock absorbers and anything else they could think of. Cynical - who, me.
