Keep us posted on this as i have bought a 6 paddle clutch from them. Wat cover plate u using an are u staying dmf or going single?
 
well i dropped my car off on monday morning for the new clutch in and its now thursday afternoon and i still haven't got my ****** car back there having trouble bleeding the clutch im loosing patience now
 
I just replaced my Slave cylinder, took a syringe and vacuum hose, opened the nipple on the slave cylinder and bleed the system from the bottom, 10 minutes and I was done.

This is exactly what I did and worked like a bomb :D

hmmm would you say its not traffic friendly then? and are your engine mounts ok?
 
Traffic friendly not really but maybe get better the more I drive it as for the engine mounts my car is a 1999 so would probably benefit from being poly bushed but can't afford it at the mo so will just have to put up with it . The clutch in with new flywheel and everything else has just cost me shy of £800 bummer this time of year just before Christmas :(
