As a side note, I was going to use the land rover splines as suggest in the build manual, but I didn't like them. I found something called a rivnut on ebay. It's basically a spline on the outside and a screw thread on the inside. Unfortunately the M8 nut that fits the standard MX5 wiper arm thread isn't fat enough to put the TEX automotive chrome wiper arms on so I got M10 nuts and araldited them on to the standard screw thread. I'll let everyone know how I get on with them as the car will be my daily driver when it's done.
