    Mk 1 Headlight Bulbs

    very easy, pop the bonnet open, in each of the corners at the front, just pop the protection cap off the back of the light, and youll see a retaining clip for the bulb, pop that off, and pull the old bulb out, put new one in. Sorted

    Mk 1 Headlight Bulbs

    i do believe they are H4 fitment. as for cheapness, i dont know, not really great going for cheap stuff, especially when its something important like that. Bit like chucking extremely cheap tyres on your wheels, when its the only thing keeping your car safely on the ground :)

    Exhaust Flame thrower

    lol the guy said "show purposes only". Besides at idle the flames wouldnt be that big, and if they did burn your bumper, then your too close to his arse end. Its not like its switched on all the time

    Exhaust Flame thrower

    u can make these yourself if u get a coil, a sparkplug, and a switch. I cant see why they are so expensive when you can just source the parts from any scrappie, its not as if the kits are the butane ones, these just ignite the unburnt petrol in the exhaust. Should look good thou ;)

    Earthing point MK1

    I used a bolt that clips onto the rear seat, on the nearside. If u pull the seat up, you should see a big gold coloured bolt, you can undo it with a torx driver. Just use a bit of sandpaper to take some of the paint and dirt away, and hey presto, good earthing point. This was an ideal...

    Insuring Cars in Parents Name

    Cupcake, id be willing to do yours 1 day, if you bought the LEDs. I do alot of surface mount soldering at work, so a few LEDs is no trouble at all. They do look good, wish it was that easy to change on the mk1 dials

    MOT help!!!!

    you cant tow the car, as the car is still on the road. you would have to get a carrier or trailor for it. As for number plate lights, its best to get them put in, as youll only end up in the same position when you have to get it MOTd on an annual basis. Ive got to wire up some white 3mm...

    boring old insurance Question!!

    id say thats an average figure. the fact that you werent on your own policy means youve got no NCB to bring with you, to lower your policy down.
