Something i use thats quite good is whatever google Siri is , I just say "set nest temperature to 20 degrees" and it does it..
Danny is right, there are minimal options to play with but its good how clever it is, the fact it downloads weather reports and then uses that to calculate how long it...
Id like to know this too. Ive been using Bilthamber wheel cleaner http://www.bilthamber.com/car-cleaning-and-degreasing/auto-wheel-110 but am guessing there is better/cheaper stuff.
less than £500 for B14s:
Below are the links to the 54mm(172 and 182) and 60mm(cup and trophy and cup packed 182s) ones .

I would probably attack it with paint stripper gel /graffiti remover and then use a pressure washer point blank range. Sand paper or wire brush will affect the finish so stay away from them.
Any chance you could link to a guide of how you do it, where to buy the stuff. Also where did you do it, would it f**k your bath tub up if you did it in there.
Forgot to say they look amazing, really quality job there.
Im going to be swapping my calipers for some new ones on my 182 and wanted to check that what I am doing is right:
-unbolt old caliper and carrier and leave the braided line connected, placing it on something so the line doesnt tug.
-remove old disc and fit new disc
-fit new caliper and pads...
Always thought the reason for discs warping was because like you say after stopping from braking hard repeatedly and leaving your foot on the brake once stopped, because the pad is left on the disc, the disc cooling is not uniform as the heat transfers from the disc through the pad and into...
New one looks great, whats the plan for buttons on it?
Finally fitted my Bilsteins yesterday with the help of @gambit. Almost 5 months after buying them haha - think you fitted yours 10 minutes after receiving them. All went well and they look amazing. Havent had a chance to properly try them...
Wont painting the letters in orange be really hard to get right and hard to stop it running.

There are places that fix wheels that are buckled. It can be pricey depending on who does it though. If it is only a small buckle then most alloy wheel refurbishing places would probably do it for £15 -£30. For a slightly more damaged wheel it can cost up to £75. This place is good but oh so...
Also worth checking that the parts above in yellow havent snapped. I have seen these snap quite easily and worth checking by getting your fingers under and gently lifting to see if there is any separation.
Cool if it does properly check out. I bought 2 brand new Recaro Trendlines off some guy in austria and had them sent here in a crate, never been more nervous in my life ! They did eventually turn up though and am well happy. Also ordered my coilovers from Germany and to be honest was a much...
In a week or two I was hoping to machine polish my car. What i dont have and have never used is any of the decontamination sprays that a lot of you guys use before claying. Can you recommend some products to buy for this , not fussed on cost as I quite enjoy cleaning the car.
@LeeRS probably not. In the pic above - thats the passenger seat and you see the little cut outs in the carpet at the bottom of the image those are mounting points for the cd changer. However , the SWE1200 fits just as well under the drivers seat too so you could fit it there. I think even if...
The Alpine SWE 1200 is a really good fit and has an 8 inch woofer. I havent tried any other underseat subs but this one is really good. have a look here
Any chance of a pic . mine is in the same place but it is kinda dangling. need to figure out a way of getting it pointed at me by using a clip or something - perhaps even some bent paper clip.
Saw these seats which are what you were looking for but they are a little pricey
