iv just got some sportlines not fitted them yet though, iv seen some with a nice drop, others that dont look lowered and the black one in the picture above looks low, hope mine dont drop that low as it looks un level with the back being so low!
after another look and getting my missus to drive the car with me in the back, the noise totally stopped, which made me think it was something to do with the rear seats as it stopped when i was sitting on it!
so i now think the rattle is the drivers side rear bench, i think its the bit that...
fletch could actually be the boot catch, decided i dont think its the door cards and with the parcel shelf out the noise is definately loads louder!
tayor my car has the normal rattles but this ones got a bit loud and noticable to passengers even lol
any ideas if theres a cure for it?
Iv got a rattle at the moment coming from the back of my car at the drivers side, at first i thought it was the parcel shelf when going over bumps, so i removed that and went for a drive it was still there, removed a few other bits from the boot too and it was still there!
the rattling has...
i use the tesco micro fibre clothes! there decent for £1.20
also use the tyre and bumper restorer on my tyres, looks good and doesnt go all over the body work, well worth the £2
just my opinion! i can see what your saying with the racing blue colour but im just not that keen on other colour calipers
painted my girlfriends racing blue 182 calipers silver lol
Re: eibatchs pics please
its strange how some people seem to think there poor and others great, also the ride seems to vary so much in height, i know the cup packed 182 is lower than a std 172 but only by 3mm
i recently bought the karcher one from argos for £60
been totally impressed with it, had the same flow per hour rate as the big ones, its small came with a 5M hose too and a few accessories, adjustable end, power end, brush end and a filtering bit with a attachable detergent tank for shampoo...
Re: eibatchs pics please
im after some sportlines but after looking at some pictures im unsure, i dont want a really low look, just down a touch and the improved handling ready for my new wheels!
can anyone remember a while back now when that guy got a new astra vxr and did a full report of a detail on it people on here and the vauxhall forums took the piss out of him!
looks like he really knows his stuff mind, good detail!
Rich- nearly all of the fallout came off, only when polishing the car did i notice tiny bits i had missed, i cut the clay bar into 2, towards the end it started to come to bits but i was just about done so i didnt get the 2nd half out.
took me about 3 hours to clay as it required a fair...
yeh iv just removed the rear plate of the glove box, going to fit my music box tommorrow, just need to drill a 20mm hole at work and pull the sterio out to connect it up!
well iv just finished!
washed the car
clayed it (took forever due to removing industrial fall out which was a pain!)

going to clay my car tommorrow if the weather is ok, iv bought some clay lube and a sonus green clay bar
anyone wanna give me some quick tips?!
also should i half the bar? and should i do the whole car or just affected areas?
can the 182 glove box be removed?
just got a renault ipod music box, which i need to mount in the glove box, it shows in the mounting instructions the glove box being removed to drill the 20mm hole for the cable and the 3mm holes to hold the unit in place
only problem being after a quick...
