Jerry Can Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Sounds weird I know but........Does anyone know what the round piece of metal is for that's between the tail light and fuse box?Its mounted on rubber and is round with a diameter of about 2 inches and about an inch and half thick.

Jerry Can Posted September 21, 2009 Author Share Posted September 21, 2009 Hello,Sorry cant take a pic unless the whole rear plastic surround is removed, Its just a bit further back from that circle you have drawn. It's not connected to anything except the frame with 2 nuts.It's just solid metal rubber mounted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumpy Old Git Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 It's just the extra weight required to stop you out accelerating a Blackbird!!1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Can Posted September 23, 2009 Author Share Posted September 23, 2009 No it's not attached to anything except the frame, I had it off the other day when i removed the entire rear surround to sort a number plate bracket.It's odd, just seems like a counterweight but only weighs about a kilo if that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
