    LEDs as sidelights

    Yep , same as in the link . £2.00 each . They can be a bit of bugger to fit on the offside due to the aircon . I've sussed it though . Get yourself a piece of 10mm plastic tubing , put the led in the tube , then hold the the bulb holder with your left hand and push the led into the holder using...

    x-lite Muc Off Bike cleaner

    I have a wheel cleaner brush from halfords . Its a bit like the green scourers your get for pans but nowhere near as abrasive , its grey with a blue handle . Try one of them , that'll get it off . A good soaking should help soften the cow s**t if its dried on . Forget the above , lol . Didn't...

    Removing stains n s**t from my seats.

    Re: Removing stains n s**t from my seats. Like you say . Autoglym interior shampoo and a soft nail brush should shift the marks depending on what the marks actually are . Failing that , Meguiars all purpose cleaner diluted down 10:1 , maybe even 4:1 if they are stubborn stains .

    dents!!!

    If you can gain access to inside the panel try using a decorators seam roller . I used one on a car of mine a few years ago and got rid of the dent . http://www.bizrate.co.uk/paint_wallpapersupplies/oid563188484.html

    Spark Plugs on 172

    Interior warrantied??

    I doubt very much that trading standards would want to get involved due to the wording of the warranty . It would be down to the disrection and the willingness of the dealership if they saw fit to replace it .

    Interior warrantied??

    It depends on your dealer and how helpful they want to be . The warranty doesn't cover " the replacement of parts damaged as a result of normal wear and tear " . Thats how they get out of that one if they want to . How do you define normal wear and tear though ?? Page 3 of the warranty booklet .

    detailing sprays

    I've never used the Zaino Z8 and at nearly 24 quid a bottle i doubt i ever will , lol . I'll stick with the Body Shield Blitz Spray Sealant at just under 11 quid ;) I use it in between layers of CG 50/50 , Petes 53 , Nattys blue ......

    Sticking on reg plates

    Like edde says . Halfords do double side sticky foam pads . Get the 1mm thicj ones . Make sure you line them up well cos once they stick they really stick , lol .

    Why have you left the oil filler cover unpainted ? The rest of it looks good but is spoilt by you leaving it silver imo .

    detailing sprays

    I've been using the Body Shield Blitz Spray Sealant alot recently . It's not a quick detailing spray , but its good for applying longevity to your existing wax . Spray on , wipe it over , let it haze and then buff off . It literally takes minutes to do the whole car . A very easy product to use...

    using AG super resin

    ^^^ Like the mans says . You need to apply some pressure as its a polish . I think some people are under the the misconception that you just spread it on and remove it and it's job done . It needs to be worked like any polish . Thats why i use the german applicators , they give some bite and...

    using AG super resin

    I've never had a problem removing it . You only need to apply it very thinly . I use these German applicators and work the polish well , much better than the yellow foam pads imo . Maybe try a panel at a time ? I usually do the whole car then remove with a good plush microfibre cloth ...

    am thinking of changing my 182

    Asking on here what you'll get is pretty pointless imo . All dealersships will offer you different amounts depending on what deal you you can come to on a new car . Have a look on autotrader to get a rough idea of what they are going for but be prepared to get your ass raped if you do part...

    removing scratches from perspex?

    Flaming perspex is usually best done on the edge of clear sheet when its been cut and looks white . Depending how deep the scratches are , you might have some success with the rotary and some very mild abrasive polish , but you might see some deformation of the perspex if you concentrate in one...

    172 Cup Exhaust

    Burnley Powerflow is also called Top Gear . They will try on different back boxes for you until you are happy with the sound . I'd definitely use them again and a couple of other people have had a similar good experience there . As said above . You get good and bad Powerflow outlets , it depends...

    172 Cup Exhaust

    You'll have to go along and they fabricate it and fit it while you wait . I was originally only booked in for a new back box , so i asked how much for a full cat back and could they do it there and then . 90 mins later it was all sorted .I can't vouch for the work of other powerflow outlets ...

    172 Cup Exhaust
