    What have you ordered? *Detailing*

    Yea does seem weird. I just use them the exact same I do with the larger Hex pads/ This backing plate: http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/index.php?_a=viewProd&productId=66 OT, just bought some Raceglaze Alcantara cleaner for my Recaro's. Haven't been cleaned in a long while and looking a bit sorry...

    What have you ordered? *Detailing*

    Does anyone have any recommendations for small spot pads, for use with DA and Rotary? I did have black/white/green 4" Hex logic pads, but they've all completely torn apart around the edges after very little use, and I don't mean a little, they've completely ripped away from the velcro pretty...

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Got on much better polishing wise today, was just practice and getting the knack of controlling it on uneven surfaces. Pretty sure it was just too much polish as to why it spat everywhere.

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    I would say for a beginner, having used both, DA is much easier to start with. Thanks for the tips guys, I have been practising on my spare bonnet, and getting good results with that, just wanted to try on a non horizontal surface - completely different ball game. I'll have another go today...

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Crumbs ^ I was playing around with my EP801 rotary today. I tried it on a door (actually on a car) and the moment I started it up it spat polish literally everywhere. All over the bonnet :( I thought maybe it was because I didn't have the pad flat flush on the door, but couldn't seem to work it...

    Seat Belt Tensioners

    When you say the seatbelt no longer works what do you mean by that? Which part?

    Rear light cluster terminal question..

    You did say rear clusters yea? The earth for the rear clusters is inside the boot just underneath where the loom passes through the hole to the rear cluster. Small bolt.

    Rear light cluster terminal question..

    Yea scrapyard. Try some WD40/Electrical contact cleaner on the existing pins with a small brush first. Check the earth too.

    Throttle/Accelerator problem

    Right. Today whipped the throttle body off, cleaned it with carb cleaner, was nice and shiny. Felt smoother to drive then about ten mins up the road did it again. Now found out it does still drive, but won't go above like 30mph. Tried pluggin in my RStuner, thinking you didn't need a license...

    Throttle/Accelerator problem

    Found these two vids: Will I need to replace the seal thing? 1.2 16v: 1.2 8v:

    Throttle/Accelerator problem

    ah cool, easy to get to then? Anything I should be aware of? Can't remember the last time I looked at a 1.2 8v :o

    Underseat Wiring

    Black things on the sills? If its what I think you're talking about its just the lower mounting point for the seatbelt, Its just a weird shape bit of metal tube. Unscrew the torx bolt and it just comes out and the belt slides off it.

    Harness fitment in the trophy

    You can buy eye bolts in M10 anyway so no need to rethread them. Its more the length that is the issue. The existing M10 bolt that goes through the pretensioner is ~ 35mm length, and the other lower mount for the seatbelt on the side is ~ 40mm thread length. I can only find Eyebolts in M10 size...

    Throttle/Accelerator problem

    lool. Okay, cheers! I can plug in my RStuner to read the code, but the chance of me understanding what the code is actually telling me are quite low tbh lol! How easy is it to clean the throttle body on mk2 ph2 1.2 8v's?

    Harness fitment in the trophy

    Fantastic, I think you've just saved me a lot of hassle! What's the difference between the one you linked and the kit? Do you need all the washers (I'll be using existing torx bolts) ?

    Harness fitment in the trophy

    Jekyll that's exactly what I was planning on doing, retaining existing seatbelts so I've got the option of both, but I've got harnesses which are the clip on type rather than bolt on, so need eye bolts. Unfortunately the side mounting points are not UNF size, they're M10 bolts, so getting hold...

    Throttle/Accelerator problem

    Cheers people. Is the accelerator easy to change? Is it a complete unit so just a case of unbolting and unclipping the wires?

    Bucket seats and harnesses and back seat use

    You can get harnesses with a buckle in the back strap. http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/harnesses/sabelt-3-point-double-release-harness-with-free-harness-pads I'm planning on fitting them whilst keeping the existing belts in the front, so if I ever needed the rear seats, I can just...

    172 Pass seat runner stuck

    I had this, a small silver metal piece had broken inside the runner, meaning it would just jam if moved back past a certain point. A few have had this issue iirc. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?659704-Seat-Rail-with-a-difference&p=8963688#post8963688

    Harness fitment in the trophy

    How does that work exactly? Do you just use the existing bolt that held the pretensioner on through the smaller hole then clip the harness onto the bigger hole?

    Underseat Wiring

    Pretensioners would've been attached to the seats so they'll already have come out. You'll just have the airbag warning light on.
