Having now discovered how to retrieve footage from my dash cams I can confirm that, yes, the rear camera does record with roof up (and down).

I’ve also got some nice footage of 5 zeds flying in formation from junction 18, but won’t post as the read out confirms velocity :driving: :police:

One of them has a clean engine bay the other has an engine bay :poke: :rofl:

You can get it cheaper, but not much in it by the time you add on postage;

Ok, its not perfect but it's better boys and girls after an hour of my time....

Certain stains remain, ie the grimey trail of water one which is like a gel. The AutoGlym engine cleaner didnt touch that, on top of my nails which had little success. The flat head screwdriver seemed like silly idea after a few scrapes😂 - good job I wasn't working on the beautiful outside of the car 😂

Better? Am I officially registered and now accepted as a cleanish engine bay zedder?
