Yes, but as posted earlier, if shorted it'll have quite a few amps going through it until the fuse melts. It's just good practice to have the main wiring rated to the same level as the system protection. Burnt/molten wiring behind dashboards etc isn't great.

I thought you were referring to a post I made earlier, no worries.

Yes, but check the rating of that fuse, and ask yourself whether you'd like to see that current going through skinny speaker wire.

It's more a case of protection in case you accidentally short it out.

12v through speaker wires is a no no. As for the rest, please don't.

W and then the model number. So for example W124, W202 etc. The above is W222 IIRC. (or at least that's the current S class, don't know if the coupe version has a separate number)

I'll pass.

As far as I know.

6k is colour, not brightness. The higher it gets the bluer it is and the lower it gets the yellower it is, pure white is about 5000k so 6000k has a tinge of blue. Obviously if you go fitting 10000k bulbs they'll be illegal because they're blue (AKA Chav Blue), but 6000k is fine.

Goes on the back of the bulb, yeah.

In your case, swap the bulb over to the other side, then the igniter, and then finally the ballast. When the light on the other side stops working, that's the component which has failed. Sounds like your mate's got a short though, possibly in the igniter if he hasn't swapped that out yet.

The passing of electricity through it. Is it blowing regularly?

Does nothing for me. S-class, and coupe, are two things which should never be mixed.

You pulled handbrake turns and wheelspins for your uni portfolio? Brave.

IIRC the Syron Street Race's are getting really good reviews. There's a thread on here.

Dan works for parts now? What do I have to give... ;)

Is it an OEM one or aftermarket? OEM ones are the only ones worth bothering with.

120hz is just handy for 3D ;)

Done.

Really? Any idea whereabouts he's moving to? Would be absofcukinglutely awesome to see him tackle werrington/wiscombe, but he might wonder where the rest of it was.

Personally I think the OEM exhaust with no centre silencer is the best sounding Clio RS setup there is, and it certainly isn't that loud. I understand you don't like it though. As for the back pressure, the centre silencer doesn't affect it hugely, and you definitely don't loose power by not...

Oh look, it's the video I posted 3 weeks ago. ;) As previously stated, AstraMan needs a medal of some description. Onboard from the Astra:

And then they start to look even better.

I like the sound of the black rotas. Did I just hear the word 'stealth'?

Because the RS Tuner won't blow his car up.

It doesn't stay flying for the entire time you drive. Just when you want to take a look around. And I imagine it charges in the car. It's a cool gimmick, but nothing more.

Spirit Blue FTW.

I see exactly what you did there. I'd imagine it would come back to the car when the battery gets low though, but there are quadcopters out there that can go for an hour or more.

Was there throughout. It was a track car though so not in immaculate condition in the first place.
