@bball7754 Thank you very much for the detailed photos! When I do my install, I'll post the steps I went through here on the forum. @Vovchandr Thank you as well for the pics. I did some research on the Lift/Pull The dot, and they are pretty interesting, so I will have to decide how best to make use of them. Also it was recommended to me I do a "loose" strap to allow for some occasional bumping of the door like show here: https://caterhamsuperlight106.wordpress.com/2017/04/22/fitted-caterham-half-doors-22042017/ Unfortunately I will be out of town the next 6 weeks or so, but when I get back I will try to jump on it and write up something. Thanks again for the help! Jake

Tonneau is not installed for me, nor are there any bits of hardware installed on the half doors. Thanks in advance for the pics!

@Vovchandr, good tip, I do manage to have one, as I needed to add a bunch of snaps to the full hood. They didn't seem to come installed on the backside of mine for whatever reason. A tool like that made it a ton easier. I am surprised how much trouble I am having finding install instructions for the door lol. I'll see if I can call up a dealer and see what they say, and if I find out, I'll report back here.

Hey Everyone, So I'm finally getting around to installing the half doors on my 2021 SV 420R, and, there are more pieces than I expected I've seen the page for the Tonneau cover install where it shows the front two riveted poppers: However, I'm not entirely sure what to do with the rest. My fittings bag contains: 4 Rivets 4 "normal" poppers (tops and bottoms) 4 "Pull the dot" caps? 4 Hex shaped snaps/poppers (upper right in the pic) 4 Other Parts for a snap/popper? (The upper most in the pic) And a Washer sprayer nozzle (haha, I assume that is a mistake) So I assume the "normal" snaps (smooth black top, and silver/chrome bottoms) go with the rivets and near the front as outlined in the tonneau cover document. However, I am at a loss as to what to do with the rest. The doors are the half doors with the arm rest: Any chance anyone might be able to lend some pointers or some pics of what a properly installed one looks like? I appreciate the help!

Test run successful 😀 Everything does seem a little quieter, so that's good. Low speed tight circles aren't as whiny, and definitely less clattering. Lock up still works under hard throttle. I'm calling it a win!

Thanks much for the info @sf4018! I figured I would take some pics of how I changed the diff oil. Haven't run the car yet, but at least it is changed. Old / Incorrect Oil: Notice it is 105777 Old Oil Fresh: Old Oil 600 Miles Might be worth noting that the thickness/consistency seemed the same as when fresh: Fill plug removal 14mm hex (Removed the Boot Floor): Taped some tubes together and connected to suction pump: Tilted the car forward and to the right, and moved the suction tube around dentist style. Managed to get just under 1 liter out, which is about right: New Oil: Hopefully that is good enough.. Used a pump cap to push in the new stuff until it dribbled out of the fill hole (after releveling the car) Will report back after the first drive. I'm just really hoping I didn't do any major damage. Thanks again for all of the assistance!

Ah, yeah, that makes sense, thanks much!

Thanks so much! Also for completeness I took a quick pic incase anyone else comes looking for it:

Sounds good to me thank you. Regarding the link, yeah I saw those stories (and many posts on many forums) a while back which is what had me paranoid about the diff in the first place, hence looking to change the oil and see what the state of things were. However I didn't realize I was using the wrong oil. I am so glad you verified it for me, thank you! A few days ago I did the torque test, and it was 57 foot pounds, of course that is with the non-ls oil in it. So hopefully I didn't damage anything. Thank you for the tips.

I guess the remaining question would be is there a torque spec for the fill plug, or anything I need to use as a sealant? Thank you again for the help!

Looks like Mobile1 is the only option I can actually get my hands on, but it is a 75w90 LS Full Synthetic. Hopefully that is good enough.

oh Crap! I do not have the LS oil in. That might explain why it is so very noisy. Guess I will swap that out. Hopefully I didn't do any damage And I can't seem to find any of that either... Thank you for the Finger filter location, I thought that was just a blanking plate. Thank you for the info!

Hey all, I will be coming up on my first oil change (at 600miles, manual says first change is at 1000), and while reading up, I keep seeing reference to a "Finger Filter". I have a 2021 420R, Duratec. Where might I find the finger filter for draining and cleaning? Also I was looking to change the diff oil at the same time. I have the Titan unit, and I had put in Motul 300 75w90 during assembly, but now I can't find that oil anywhere. Is there a known good alternative I can use? Thanks for the help!

Woohoo! That did it! Properly working turn signals. I think that is the last wiring fix on the car, and I think the last issue on the car all together. On to paperwork and inspection. Thank you all very much and especially @MV8 for your time and knowledge!

Allllrighty then. @MV8at first I tried what you suggested, and in continuity mode, I got nothing. Then I verified that I had continuity from the switch connector to before the diodes, and I do on both GW and GR. Next I stripped the heat shrink off of everything: You were right on with the connectors as being the second lump. I switched the meter to Diode test mode, and I get a forward voltage drop of 0.57'ish no matter which way I place the probes in terms of polarity. This is the same for both diodes. Note that I tested while the Diodes were connected to each other with the GW wire. I have not unsoldered them as of yet. Now I did notice that they are not "facing" the same direction: Wouldn't they need to be wired in the same direction? And if so, wouldn't that make the one on the right (GW wire) backwards? If that makes sense, I would be happy to try reversing it. Any chance anyone can confirm this logic? Thank you all and especially @MV8 for all of the time spent helping me out!
