I'm thinking of getting my dash re-trimed to give it a bit of life when I get my install finished..
Will the airbag still function with a re-trim ?
Not sure what to get the dah done in;
Does alcantara "wear" much on dashboards?
Based on a chat with a few m8s, and of course the improved looks :) ...
I'm thinking of getting a strut brace for my car
Just want to know;
Will strut braces help reduce the roof flexing?
Not quite the Egg & Chips you might have asked for.....
Came out of work the other night to find an egg splattered all over my roof :dapprove: :mad:
Washed it off with warm water & fairy liquid as soon as I got home (2AM job - bet the neighbours realy think I've lost it now)
I thought the...
I've been having a lot of fun stripping the car out to get dynamat in but then I hit a small problem :dapprove:
The screw that secures the passenger front seatbelt has a "ringed head" on it
How on earth can I get that out?
I'm gathering ideas here :star:
I'm thinking of getting myself a set of 16s {The in-between of "15s for Go" and "17s for Show" } :)
Edit the pic to fit the rims that you think would suit the car
Looking forward to the results :cool:

I've noticed (mostly on rainy days) that my air vent that blows onto the pedals is a bit....useless :dapprove:
Even when the CC is at Max on hot or cold, the air seems to be blocked by the panel in the foot-well :S
Just wondering what I could do with it?
Much appreciate any pointers :star:
Im gettin a light scraping/hissing noise in 1st gear just after "biting point", as the car begins to move.
Sometimes occurs when changing other gears
Any ideas what this is?
Many thanks in advance

I have got myself a set of new bulbs for my full beam
They are the Halfrauds Rally ones (red box; 80w)
On the back of the box it says
"Check vehicle wiring and switches before installing high wattage bulbs. They must be rated at 20amps for 100w bulbs at 12v"
How do I check this?
Cheers

I have 6.5" Speakers comming soon and was wondering;

Many thanks in advance for any advice

Naturaly enough, my roof rattles :clown: even more now with the coilovers;
puck me fink it's like gremlins learning to tap-dance above my head :mad:
I'm thinking - will a layer of dynamatt or something like that cure this?
I have an electric sunroof if that makes any difference

The long awaited lowering kit for the Tiggermobile (Cobra Evo-1 coilovers)

Just wondering;
I am looking to upgrade my ICE but this time I want to do it myself, to learn more about the "ICE world" (installing, setting up, builds etc.)
Has anyone had problems with buying ICE products online?

As above;
What do I look out for when buying an Amp?
I don't get all the RMS and Ohms jargon :dapprove:
Looking for a 2 channel for my front comps or a 4channel (bridged)
and a mono for the sub
Interested in a few Alpine/Audison/Genesis models
but I really don't have a clue how to compare...
I have an Audison SRx4 amp in at the min running my sub and powering my front components. I'm going to change my 4-channel and get a mono for a bit more "dynamic"
Thinking of changing to either the Audison LRx range or Alpine V12s ?
Any ideas on which would be the better amp?
Thanks in...
I have just noticed that I have a "graze" mark on my paintwork :dead:
I've seen this before on my parents clio - was caused by a football covered in grit hitting the car :mad:
The scratches aren't deep but are visible and there are about 50 of them :dead:
Needless to say, I'm absolutly...
Just a quick query -
Last weekend I PC'd my car with 2 coats of Meguiar's #80 then topped it with Megs #21 :approve:
The car as it sits is just a bit "dusty" from a few trips during the week
Am I right thinking the paintwork will be ok to shampoo & apply wax?
I am taking it to the local...

Just a quick question...
FK's or Cobra's ?
I have had FK highsports "comming in the post" since Xmas
Supplier (FK in Germany) kept saying there was a delay on them :rolleyes: almost 9 weeks on now...Clio kits UNAVAILABLE
2 other members (Boydie & Clio_Styling) already got FK Highsports...
What do you make of this? looks decent enough

:o Probably a silly question but anyways;
Are Recaro seats able to lean forward for access to the rear seats and can they be fitted with height adjust for the driver?
Too much fog for the planned full clean of the car this week :dapprove: could hardly see the car from the house!
Cleared up just about enough today so took the opportunity for a few foggy pics :cool:
Found a cool setting on my phone for these pics too :star:
To be FK'd...
Well, I think they met eachother...
...was down paying for my FKs on Thursday and spotted these :eek:
And mine parked beside the BM - belonging to the owner of the Spoiler Centre :approve:
How exactly do I swap a h/u ? :o
What tools are need to to get the old h/u out?
Do the wires just "plug-in" ?
If I already have an amp installed , is there extra setting up or wiring required when I swap the h/u?
I have the JVC KD SHX701 h/u, thinking of putting in an Alpine 9855R :)...
Got 2 front tyres in desperate need of replacing :dapprove:
