Like a little adventure driving in the car park though :rasp:

But are there 2000 active members on here? Doubt it tbh

Its a bit thick for that lol, uncles got proper metal working tools so he'll get it cut down for me. No rush for it now though, just glad all the electrics appear to be working and that i know what the problem is. When it is fitted and working correctly i'll get a little guide up showing what...

The reason it wont fit is what Jamie was getting at I think. Both wheels can be seen below: 200 182 As you can see, where the 200 wheel attaches to the steering column it is significantly longer than the old wheel. This is what is catching on the inside of the column (I can see marks...

Seems strange though, how non cc wheels are identical. Well i've just been out in it and the cruise works with the new wheel now, so all thats left is this return issue. Its constantly rubbing on something but not sure what (have an idea though). Just leaving it 30 mins before i remove the new...

Going to have a go at cutting it at the weekend i think, to make it fit. Only problem is i cant get the f**king thing off now. The airbag is fully unclipped at the bottom but wont pull out. Really pissed off.

Mate had a moped with a broken speedo, still passed its mot and the tester said it wast a legal requirement

But if you go in and buy a brand new wheel to replace yours then it will surely be this style, so it wouldn't fit either? So is the answer to get an early 197 wheel, doubtful tbh

But the part numbers are the same!!!

It my surname lol, there are only about 8 of us in the country. It used to be cool having a foreign surname until all the polish started moving over but thats for another thread ;)

Seems the big thing at the moment this! Picked up a 200 wheel and just had a go at fitting it but have experienced the same problem as Jamie did. There is something more than just the plastics making the wheel stick in one position. JMS have said they haven't modified their 197 wheel but...

Presume we will meet at colton? Or somewhere near there. Then its at least 1h30m to hawes so to miss traffic we need to meet pretty early, like before 9!

Ive used pearsons a few times before. Excellent service and prices, plus its in Halifax!

shiny shiny :)

Windermere and Coniston and the roads up and around there. Set off at 10:30 and got home at 6ish, about 45 minutes spent having lunch up there the rest driving :)

just about ;)

There wouldn't be space for that sort of loom in a 197 wheel anyway!

Quick question (again :o). Once the wheel is fitted it will pretty much block off the holes which you need access to to remove the airbag, how do you get around this? Or do you just struggle, badly.

I'm up for it :)

Spotted about 4pm joining the dual carriageway. Put your foot down some too, i was 2 cars behind

Re: RB182 Diary You'd be surprised, my old car had a lot less clearance by the time i sold it (lower than in the pic on here) and it only catched occasionally. Only done a couple of k in it, it sits on the drive most of the time as i use a van for work and comes out to play at the weekend :)

Went today with a mate in his punto. Not been since August and forgot how amazing it is up there, some cracking roads and when your off the main roads virtually no traffic :) Couple of photos below, rest can be seen on my flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/mjenic/sets/72157623454847614/

So you have done the same with the clip then?

Also interested in knowing this.

Re: RB182 Diary Thanks for all the comments :) How so? I could guess though ;) Waiting for one to come up, want to swap? It was slightly lower, but had to raise it as it was rubbing :( Sorted it now, my abs ring was set wrong when i fit it :) Definitely!

Re: RB182 Diary Got my k-tec coilovers and top mounts fitted at NWPerformance yesterday. Car sits much better, rides similarly to the cup suspension and handles well too, not that it didnt before mind! Some crappy pics i just took in the fog:

+1 Although i've never started it in gear lol, probably because i've always done this though

I thought this but decided to look at autotrader before commenting and i was surprised how expensive nice low mileage cups are up for, steve isn't making it up!

Dont bother emailing them though, they never reply :(
