I am with the try another engineer group..

Some certifiers are pedantic pricks and others are normal she\'ll be all g types..

Can depend a bit on your attitude and what sort of first impressions you make..

Good luck and put up a pic of your cutting..

I had absolutely no issue with what I cut to fit it in the conventional manner for cert which is the same rulebook. Iirc this isnt under the lights but may have been edited since I last read about it.

i think its stupid as it dosent affect the structure of th car. This process is stupid. Certification for mods is still pending. He write a list of things to do, we did them.then he write another list and another he came in and rechecked it 3 times for different things now he wants me to change the bearings in the back struts. Secondly i went in for compliance and they write a list of things to do which the certifier pretty much covered now they want me to fix them again. i also cant pass compliance untill i have the cert and engineer cert. got the engineer in and cant get the engineer cert until i get a panelbeater to sign saying the panel works all legitimate. pissing me off that they all pass the job onto others. Seems like ill never get the car back on the road.
