Thanks once again for all replies, nice guitar Jim.

Well after a few emails and calls with Thomann's they will replace the guitar once they get the old one back, I did find no matter what it says on the website about customer after care, you still have to strongly put forward your case, but seems to to be working out ok.

Seems if you are going to go about this job yourself, getting a proper clamp is very important, I was looking at this one on ebay, but just dont understand how this one could work as nothing goes inside the soundhole of the guitar if replacing the Bridge

Bridge clamp

Was thinking maybe the screws go through the bridge pins but probably not much good for a through bridge or classical bridge.
