Default Fuel Filler Pipe replacing

Hi all
I have just managed to source a mint condition fuel filler pipe(after 6 months of being let down by various people)
Does anybody know of a guide to removing and refitting, I have been through the technical forums and tried searching using keywords etc but without luck.
I have a feeling its nuts, bolts and jubilee clips but I was also after some safety tips(no sarcastic comments please re smoking etc:icon_eek
A pictorial guide would be great if you know of one as I am a wee bit dim :ges_help:
Thanks in advance

I would be interested to know where you got one from, about 6 months ago I had holes in mine and filled them in with isopon P60 fibre glass filler. I may need to replace it again in the future but all of the bolts etc look too rusted to be moved.

I am a member on Scottish Scoobies and got it from a guy on there, Sporticus, think he is a breaker as he posts a fair bit, they are pretty hard to get hold of though as they are in such demand, I have been let down quite a few times by people agreeing to supply and then not getting back to you....Good luck with the search

Part number 42066FA030 but as you say expensive. Shame no aftermarket stainless steel ones as there must be a market with all these 10 yr old ones going rusty!

£100+ I think that last time I enquired. The problem is it comes with the filler attached too!
