    You can get folding mini wheel stands fairly cheap, if you aren't willing to desk mount. I'll be using a 32in telly for my monitor too.

    LED interior light constant on?

    Normal. Drawing sod all power, it won't flatten your battery. That current flows anyway even if you've got a normal bulb in, but a normal bulb needs more than that to start lighting which is why you don't notice it until you fit LEDs.

    Can't have been a very good one if he didn't notice that!

    Clio 200 Headlights

    Well, like I say, the mk2 ph1 has a lever like this; https://www.dropbox.com/s/6wbkfnxfcfulsyj/dscf2136.jpg?dl=0 But that just flats the beam. You won't have a kick-up on the verge side, but I managed fine in my clio without it. If it doesn't have any lever then you may end up having to get...

    Clio 200 Headlights

    They're set up for LHD. You may be able to swap it over using a lever inside the headlight, if the Mk2 Ph1 headlights are anything to go by. Unused bulbs are cornering lights, have to be activated in CLiP. I'm guessing your car originally had reflectors, and someone's retrofitted projectors...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Hi folks. I've got a new sim rig coming and I want to run a dedicated PC with it. I currently have this laptop; http://www.reevoo.com/p/asus-n56vz-s4242 i7 3610QM, GT650M, 8GB. I want to have improved performance if I'm going to the trouble of having a standalone, so I'm looking at running...

    Clean vxr

    The facelift looks a bit strange but the more I see it the more I can live with it. Better than the old shape, I think.

    Scotch locks and footwell lights?! Where have I gone wrong.

    I can't remember the colours off the top of my head. If you look at the contacts on the back of the interior light unit, then you'll be able to work it out. The connector that goes straight to both bulbs is the neutral, the one that goes to the switch's central connection is only live when the...

    Scotch locks and footwell lights?! Where have I gone wrong.

    You've used scotch locks. I'd have just gone straight onto the copper contacts on the back of the interior light. But then I have a soldering iron, which makes things easier. That gives you the advantage of being able to control your LED footwell lights with the interior light. If possible use...

    I'm just fed up of people moaning about other people moaning because they're more moaning-er. I doubt I'll get the job, I put on the form that I only wanted to do it so I could ban dave for having bad hair, but at least I was honest.

    minion dash bits hydro dipped

    I can see someone one day taking a LY clio, wrapping the bottom half of it blue, and then putting one of those windscreen blinds up with minion eyes on it. And I shall weep a tear for a ruined car.

    That includes clios TBH.

    Nah. To be honest I had a Corsa C in mind which I saw today with the same, but the GTR has been ruined too.

    Yeah, having an integrated seat is good, but make sure you have one with sliders if you want your mates to sit in it, makes fitting in it so much easier.

    Sim Racing & Driving

    Bump. Been playing a lot of various sims, had some spare money kicking about and yeah. Fairly basic setup, won't be going with screen mounts or anything, but it's a very stable platform, has seat sliders and plenty of adjustability, has a shifter mount and so on. Ordered it with the extra...

    Best SIM only deals now?

    I found GiffGaff's coverage to be quite poor as it uses O2 aerials. I've just changed back to EE. Costs more but I get more data and the coverage around here is much, much better.

    Dave's E55 AMG given a quick Detail!

    This shape E class is the best looking E class Mercedes have ever made, everything else afterwards just went all shouty and chrome and completely lost all elegance. (although the AMG GT has clawed some of it back) This was around the unreliable era though IIRC.

    Clio 200T EDC, What's up with them?

    I'm asking the question. So far all I've seen from people saying the box is fast, is people comparing it to boggo manual transmissions, as opposed to the other DCT setups used by the likes of BMW, Audi, VW etc etc etc. There was a big deal made about the cost of the gearbox in the car, saying...

    Clio 200T EDC, What's up with them?

    And? All DCTs shift quicker than people. But is it good for a DCT? Drive a decent DCT then drive the Clio's.

    Clio 200T EDC, What's up with them?

    I don't think that having 14 year old switchgear, which you use and touch every day, is acceptable in a brand new car. Just because you do, does not mean you can call me a c**k, unless you are one yourself. Boosh summed it up better.

    I may well be in Scotland at the time, lol

    Clio 200T EDC, What's up with them?

    I'm just repeating your statement. Doesn't work for you either. In 14 years, things have moved on. 14 year old switchgear is not really acceptable these days.

    A 172 works. Why change it?

    You can't buy a Ph.1 172 from Renault these days.

    So the other day you were laughing at Chip because he posted something derogatory about CS, yet here you are doing the same thing. I don't really go for the CSOC stuff but at the end of the day they're a club like any other. Sniping at them is just asking for trouble and it doesn't fit the...
