Thanks for the pictures mate. The sparco one looks identical. I pulled out that spring clip and cut it short then slid it back inside. Was going to pull it all out completely but decided against it as not sure whether it's connected internally...
Not tried it yet but see no reason why it would...
Not that bad really ;) don't know whether to prime it or not? I only have normal grey primer but just hycote satin black.
Also do I remove all the stickers or just mask them off? Decisions decisions
Gave the car a full service today -
Engine oil,
Gearbox oil,
Oil filter,
Pollen filter,
New washers all round.
Engine oil was black despite only being done around a year ago (about 8k miles) so glad I changed that. Gearbox was still crystal clear but it got changed anyway.
Then gave...
So i've read a number of different things about connecting the horn up and people having problems with burning/melting cables.
I really do not want this to happen. In an older thread someone recommended chopping off the little spring clip on the back of the horn so that it wasn't earthing to...
Had a knocking coming from my front end so I went over all the engine and gearbox mounts and retorqued them and loctited them as I believe it was the manifold banging on the subframe.
I also managed to get this fitted!
I have cruise control bracket to finish wiring up and also some airbag...
Take for mot. Ask if sunstrip will fail test before they test it. Either remove if it will fail or keep it if they say it won't.

I recommend bramracing too for alignment! Potholes are terrible around Huddersfield 100% worse than they were before. I've had cars behind on multiple occasions mimic me as I avoid them all. b******s.
If you need a hand doing that star cog repair give me a shout
Where are people getting the 274 from then? I just popped over to napkins anyway and bought a 3.9 ohm resistor so can make 273.9 which will be fine with tolerance
Sorry, yeah it's to replace the buttons of the cruise on an aftermarket steering wheel. I just looked at the resistors and they have a brown tolerance band meaning they're 1% so the 270 one I have won't be good enough? I can go back over and get one higher if it is 274-300 but I've not read that...
Do you have some photos of the damaged gearbox? Just to back up what they're saying. I'm very surprised it's that bad if you havnt had crunches? Change the oil recently?
