didnt you look at the last pic.lol
nice, liking the colour coding and tints but the wipers and sunstrip are not my cuppa. I have to say not too keen on the bonnet either.
probably just your rad split, if you need to go anywhere carry loads of water and stop to top it up when the temp gauge starts going up. sorry I don't know much else
Well I needed a new head gasket so took it to a bloke my dad knows and I got new head gasket (bolts etc), the head skimmed, the cam belt and alternator belt changed, new timing chain, and new accelerator cable all done for £366. The place was G. A. Motors (01376 324549) in Braintree, he works on...
Easier to use a socket on them than the torx, think they were about a 17mm or something its easy'ish!!. Undo to the 2 bolts that hold the long metal thingamebob that is covered by a bit of plastic, this may need a lot of brute force, because they are exposed and have dirt on the thread, cracking...
If you could just post a slightly larger pic I might be able to help you. lol.
No sorry I'm not sure with that because my wiring if different, mine they are split up intoo different connectors for each thing (pre-tensioners and airbag etc..). You have everything all from that one unit I think...
Yeah unless they are road dirt titanium silver like mine at the mo. Im just going to get handles, boot lock and spoiler done, maybe fog surrounds but leaving the bumpers and side strips to seperate the colour a bit and I think it wont go too well. Looks great on your because of the 172 bumpers...
Cheers for the pic John, fog surrounds look quite good actually, wouldnt get my bumpers or bump strips done because I agree with other comments about not spending too much on such a small car. Thats why I havent done anything that will make it harder to sell my car, just doing the bits that...
Im not that bothered about the sterring wheel really, but like the silver stereo surround and the knob. how easy will it to be change the pedals? Will let you know when I'm ready for those handles then I will get it all done and send you the lock. Suprised your mirrors werent already colour...
Well in that case I will send you the one with the front that isnt in the best condition, that way you can have your good one done and so can I, sound ok? I've got the 172 exclusive leather and door cards been in for about 2 months now and I love it. It goes really well with my car and yours...
Yes I am stalking you!! hahaha. What did you fit, the leather/alacantara ones? I had to through crimp nearly every wire, it was a b*****d! Wth the lock, are you going to swap them over, then get your original one sprayed and then swap them back??
I'm looking to get my handles, spolier and boot lock colour coded plus a scratch repaired on my rear right wing, its doing my head in now. How much did you pay for yours?
