I still have the bucket bank.  Let me know what sizes you want. Trade in the ones you take out.

TCB are still in business.  Best to phone. 01579 383879

I'm told they are not doing telephone queries at the moment.  tcbtoyotaparts@hotmail.com

It's easy.....
My body has declared a civil war against me and no longer does as I ask .... casualties include broken tibia, fractured fibula and ankle

And yes, I know it's easy as I have done quite a few in my time, but I just don't want to escalate the satiation just now.

Tip.  When searching for engine parts search 'Toyota 1ZZfe', not 'Mr2 Roadster'.  You'll find everything to need, and for less money.
