Modified Spare Wheel Carrier
On the last drive the back end was very noisy but it only became apparent what it was when I took the photos yesterday and had a look underneath. I had not secured the spare wheel properly. Fixed it now. https://youtu.be/l8NbQafIq-Y

The Dodo Juice orbital polisher I bought turned up today so I cracked out the Megs polish and pads that came from Clean your Car last week and got to work. Not finished yet, but I think it will look a bit better once done
