I had my van seat done by a local trimming company.
I bought the seat foam for £68 on eBay (came in a Renault box though?) and took it to a local place called Motortrim. He sent me for breakfast and when I went back an hour later it was done. Charged me £40.
On every car I buy I properly clean the seats with a magic sponge and APC and then dry fully with a clean microfibre. It’s a harsh process but it only needs doing once and then all they need is a little wipe every time you clean the interior. You wouldn’t want to do it weekly that’s for sure as...
I’m in your camp here. A sports cat that doesn’t do any actual catting is just a pipe, no??
If they’re selling sports cats that can’t pass emissions tests then it needs to state that clearly on the advert. ‘Not for road use’ seems a little bit weak as a description imo.
Glad it’s sorted mate. Get some pics up in the media section if it’s a bit of a project!
The fuel remaining thing - I have a similar issue on mine but just put it down to not being driven much and it never has a chance to calculate the MPG to work out how much is left. (It’s a track car with a...
Welcome to the Club Nev!
my gut reaction is the UCH under the glovebox. Usually if you unplug it and plug it back in (vigorously, 5 or 6 times) and the fault goes away for a few days, it’s a sure sign that it’s starting to fail.
It used to be an expensive fix but plenty of people offer a repair...
When doing the brakes, make sure you fit some braided lines and some decent fluid too. The last 197 I took on track had the same setup as you’re planning and the brakes were phenomenal.
a proper geometry setup will transform the car also.
welcome to the club. 👍
Same. My thermostat only goes down to 13 before it’s off completely - which I don’t want to do in case anything freezes. But the bloody thing was going all night. Probably cost me a f**king weeks wages.
I spent 2 hours just doing the engine bay today on this 20 year old 1.9 diesel Kangoo. It was absolutely howling but like a prick I didn’t take any before pics. 🤦♂️
looking spanking now though!
I fitted some Focal speakers to a Ford yesterday. Straight forward plug and play and the fit and finish was superb. Sound awesome too.
I’d imagine there are plenty of kits for the Mk4 Golf, the most modified car in the world surely?? 😂
the little boxes are crossovers, so split the signal from...
I’ve stopped using it on my own cars. It dulls the plastics really bad.
but for work cars, I always use Autoglym. Seems to be the best combo of effective cleaning but won’t stain if you leave it on too long.
The passenger door was questionable, so I re-did that, but on the whole I was really pleased with it.
I’ve washed it now with some really hot water and fairy liquid to strip all the fillers and polish off it to hopefully see the ‘true’ condition of the paint. I’ll see what greets me when I get...
We had a Focus RS in work with one on back in about 2019. I’ve never driven a standard Focus RS so I’ve nothing to compare it to. But it went well, passed emissions on the MOT ok and the guy that bought the car still has it today.
