    The Dog kennel's dead (vid)

    There's reliable and unreliable ones out there. My old one was a royal pig but the current steed is alright so far! Equally immensely helpful as well. You're welcome.... :o

    Best thing to remove brake dust

    Pop a pic up ? Are you sure it's brake dust ? IronX should remove it, presuming it is actually brake dust ! Bilberry is a safe brake-dust remover too .. IronX should easily remove it though as it's far harsher than billbery.

    Need help with buying new tyres.

    UniRoyal RS2's are £59 each (£63 delivered) at CamSkill... but then you're still looking at £10 a corner at least to have them fitted. Pretty sure 205s are actually cheaper in W over V rating too and over 195s as well, so look about and see what's best for you. Bearing in mind they're the...

    Detailing Garage For Hire

    That sounds like a much better (from a profit perspective) idea !

    Detailing Garage For Hire

    Doesn't sound like a great idea really when you think about it ... He needs to know what it'll cost him (variable (i.e.: rates of bills and rough use) and fixed (i.e.: the rent, insurance, tax (this is legit, right?) and costs of lifts etc)) before he can make a decision. You say it's his own...

    Macro'd cat nose by evil_giraffes_rule, on Flickr Nifty Fifty + Canon 7D. Speedlite on top with diffuser. Cheapo eBay special macro tube (14mm) and a phone LED for focus reference. :approve:

    Recommend me some Component Speakers!!!

    Cut the bass to the fronts via the HPF/LPF on the head unit, let the sub do the heavy stuff. Job done.

    AppleTv Remote

    I have one and it's ace. IMac is in the office and ATV is in the front room. Music streaming is ok but I mostly use it for Netflix

    Help ?!?!

    Take the inlet off and remove it !? :S

    Drives horrible.

    Call Fred in a few days when he's back in and ask him. Could be a slow puncture, crap tyres, knackered shocks or possibly a duff rack but why bother replacing when you don't know what's up ? Might be a simple fix and you'll be home in no time !

    FFS one thing onto the next... Locking wheel bolt

    FLOL Either you didnt have that seated correctly, or they're made of cheese. Send them back and get a refund. Does any body steal wheels any more ?! I'm pretty sure I could get all I needed in Halfords or ScrewFix to combat any 'locking' nut anyway.

    Heated front screen

    Bloody hell ! Cheaper than a regular one haha :o

    Heated front screen

    Road car heated front screens are tiny wires inbetween the layers of glass that are laminated to make your screen. As it was never an option, my bet would be a one off job only which would cost you more than the car is worth ! The only other thing you could do is do it like the rear window...

    TV help

    You've got black lines top and bottom - I bet they make up the missing 280 lines ;) It's a download in .mkv meaning it'll be compressed. BRs are about 20-30GB unless they're dual layer and that's doubled ;) If youve got a file that's less than 10% original size, you're going to see losses...

    Surround Sound Advice

    Get down to your local Richer Sounds branch and speak to the staff in there. If you can, get to one with a demo room ! Is this for your front room, bedroom or what ? My KEFs sound borderline naff in my poxy newbuild dinky front room with "wooden" floor and cardboard walls, but in my last...
