Re: Mr Postman
They're hard to find. There's just one seller from Poland. The eBay item number is: 283611493199
There's no coding required, just press and hold the middle key button and the extra force of the struts opens the boot.

Re: Mr Postman
It came with a flat blade and microfiber cloth too. Didn't use the microfibre but it's now in the door pocket - it's bound to be useful for something

Re: Mr Postman
Can the engineers amongst you tell me whi a JIS spec screwdriver is better than a Phillips? Will a JIS work on a Philips screw head?

Re: Mr Postman
JIS is the Japanese standard. The angle and length of the tip is half that of philips which lends itself to smaller size screws and flange/button head screws. If you've ever tried to use a PH1 screwdriver on a button head screw you know you only get 1 opportunity to use that screw before it rounds out.duke63 wrote:Can the engineers amongst you tell me whi a JIS spec screwdriver is better than a Phillips?

FYI they are the perfect tool to dry down your trackbike after a wash or coming back from a wet trackday .!

It's also the perfect tool for removing all the water from my folding door mirrors after the car gets cleaned.
I currently use my air compressor for both of those tasks and it's frustrating because it's a small capacity compressor and NOISY AS EFF!

....And there's always a little dimple or dot on the screwhead to let you know it's JIS.
Almost looks like a flaw on the screw.

Photo etch cockpit details
Resin ejection seat
Resin jet exhaust covers
Wax pencil (if you buy a specific model one they are expensive, buy a craft one and you can pick one up for cheaper than chips!)
Balsa wood poles
All for my up coming models that I'm going to build
