    That goes for me too Neil.
    Looking forward to using my kit soon.
    Great effort putting this together.
    If I could leave a five star review anywhere I would!!

    Re: Targa catch refurb kits

    I have put this full kit on the bay starting at £275 but in hindsight should have posted here first. If anyone is interested please pm for full details, happy to discuss price point but in reality I don’t think there is a lot of movement. I may also consider an exchange deal if that helps in anyway. I can remove lugs and repaint. I haven’t powder coated as some prefer all black, some chrome back plates etc but the finish certainly on the black levers is v good and the silver stands up to scrutiny.

    Five star review from me, the spring, pin & clip kit is excellent, my old springs have just rusted away, this makes life much easier... a rare thing!!!

    Re: Targa catch refurb kits

    I have now experimented with the ‘riveted’ centre pin and successfully completed a set using aluminium pins. (Caveat do not buy from Chinese suppliers but buy uk engineering stock if you want to do these yourself).
    For those that have already bought one on my kits in UK happy to send a set of 4 FOC just PM your addresses again. New orders I need to add a nominal £2.50 if required. Attached is my method of achieving the desired result in a home workshop. I am sure others can refine the process.

    I think CJ tried these. Aren't they something to do with bookbinding?
    Neil has done all the work though. No point re-inventing the catch refurb kit!
