Mine for comparison, i had clutch slip now and again, so ever so slightly down

Find it did have Recaros

Its Late - And looking through the net trying to find details of the plugs under the seats for airbags etc, has anyone got any pictures of them handy? I'm guessing at some point there was buckets in and when interior got put back in just joined cables instead of getting the plugs. I like to do...

Having read a few posts on here, i am lead to believe the UCH controls alarm etc and locking and unlocking of car? the problem i have is that you basically have to be standing right next to the car to unlock/lock. i have changed the battery in the key it's self thinking this may be an issue...

I was quoted £450 for it to be sorted with an aftermaket one, although i don't have a 197 no more lol, But it could vary depending on what is wrong, could be flexi, could be manifold crack? need to get under and have a butchers - then get a to a specialist to see what they will charge?

Most Likely the flexi, very common on the 197's to go, not cheap either, as said go aftermarket!

Yeah i bit the bullet already, Not had any decent products in a while, so thought i'd give it a whizz, will post up results when i get round to it.

Totally get where your coming from, but they were really bad - whether or not i wasn't going at them enough so never went crazy mad i don't know, but as said it worked for me and all i had at the time lying round. I need new lights anyway due to them being buggered inside with the clips burst...

It worked for me, if you really want work up to 400 then 500 then 800, as i said i done this by hand to get the worst of the rubbish/glue residue of as it was just chewing everything else up.

So got the 3M kit of eBay, looked at the Meguiars kit but thought you will get better results sanding the lense down first the polishing up rather than just the compound with the Meguiars kit. The lenses themselves were in terrible condition, weather it was a type of glue on it or something...

This shall be getting tried come payday, but as you said, folk from TND don't make much sense, and at least with this you have some paypal protection!

You got the part number for the seal?
