Strange question I know, but dependant on how the MOT goes in a few days might need to store the C6 in the garage for a bit.

Anyone know roughly how much you might be able to shorten one by. Removing bumper lights and and bits near the front (that can go back on again in a month or so)

Thanks again

Dave

You can claim about 30cm before you hit the front end of the chassis rails. You'll need to remove the bumper, lights, the crash rail and possibly the front section of the engine subframe.

Thanks Mike
That should be more than enough if things don't go to plan with MOT.
Now just got to locate a hand brake module...
Cheers

I may be able to help with that also....

I'll be striping what's left of my spares car over the weekend and you have second refusal. I've previously offered it to someone else but haven't had a response yet. If I don't get one by the end of Monday I'll send you a DM with details.

Thank you Mike that would be great.
Just need the motor/module as brand new cables already fitted.
(If that makes it any easier to remove )
