I can do the airport pickup and lift. Live in Southern Suburbs only 15min from airport, so can either collect on Fri night and drop off at B&B/accomm, or collect on Sat morning on way to venue. To be decided once flights booked.

Hi guys,
Brilliant effort!
Probably a bit late on this bandwagon now
Currently own a Gen 3 and hoping to get my upgrade Gen 4 (2012 GLS)any day now. She is still under warranty and not having her yet, I don't know if she would require a dash fix?
Does all the Gen 4's have the dash problem or only certain models ? If under warranty, would the fix have any implications on my warranty ?
I live in Cape Town and willing to help where I can - definitely don't want to miss out on the opportunity
Regards,
Wessel

Wessel,
My opinion is to get the brackets in as soon as possible. Even if your car may appear fine. The movement on corrugation will eventually require the brackets. John and Kurt are such experts that they really do not "violate" your car.

Okay chaps, we have 10 cars confirmed. We might be able to do more but it means it will be a very long day. As mentioned, each car takes about an hour to do. The Caska (touch screen) units do take a bit longer because access is tight with all the cables.
I have booked my flights, I arrive at CT International at 19:15pm on Friday 4 Dec. Leave again on Sunday morning at 10h20am. John is busy booking his now.
Willem is trying to secure a warehouse, if anyone else has an idea of where we can work then please propose something.
IanH has kindly offered to give us lifts, awesome gesture thank you. Further updates to follow....
