Went for a coastline walk this morning
it was fresh and breezy but good to get out. Shame the pier and everything else was shut, but we managed a takeout coffee

That’s a bummer 
Mine’s a 2018 Life, and doesn’t have them, might have to pop mine off again mate, and see if there’s a supply there somewhere to use ?
Cheers
