New twin clutch

I have killed my fourth clutch in my car so I have decided to move to a stronger twin plate clutch from Ogura. It comes with a lighted fly wheel.

Before everyone worries that their clutch might not last I have done everything possiable to kill mine, such as towing fork lift truck that were bogged, climbing sand dunes that were almost vertical which required the car to cross the top of the dune with the two front wheel about 4 foot above the ground. When we crossed the simpson desert the clutch got so hot it welded its self to the fly wheel and didn't release till it cooled down. Also the size tyre 235 R70 16 I run means they don't lose grip on tar so the clutch and transmission take the load.
Here is the clutch fresh out of the box and if it works as well as it looks then it will be brilliant.

Its beauty warms my heart.
