if i can make myself more visable down tight country lanes then sidelights do the job. I dont know anybody who would use them to park.
use them when already parked up yes.
anyway, so if I have sidelights turned on at the stalk, will the autolights take over and put headlights on when it gets darker?
quick question.
does it turn sidelights on and then headlights as it gets darker?
or is it not that clever of a feature?
have only just found out I have them so just wondered how sensitive they are as I live in an area with a lot of small lanes so I do use sidelights pretty early on.
especially...
this is my first Xmas in my own house so looking forward to getting the tree as we always had an artificial one at the family home.
seems a bit strange planting a tree in my living room but hey, festive spirit and all.
nice mate.
which spacers did you use on the back? I want to do mine after its lowered but not sure which ones are best to get.
do you have a direct link to them?
haha. Yeah I know what you mean. You would be surprised how these 172/182's go round a track with very little done to them.
depends how much bhp you want though :)
if your going 200+bhp then your talking £££.
hi and welcome Stu.
if I were you I would either;
A. Do as you said above and go and see Chi. He knows his stuff.
B. Go and buy a half decent 172/182 and have fun doing it up. Gives you something to do and you will enjoy it a lot more on track.
C. Do B with a car from A (option c ftw)
managed to get the splitter on today. Was a pretty straight forward job. Hardest part was probably trimming the edges at the right angle so I just used electrical tape to get a visual of if and got a thin circular blade to cut off the overhang.
the second pic gives you an idea of how much bigger...
cheers mate, an old fella had it before me, is in mint condition to be fair. When inwent to look at it the guy told me it was mint so I thought yeah yeah, here we go. When I got there and saw it was like showroom spec.
well happy with it :)
i like the original alloys. Must admit I'm tempted to...
have now got the plates on and have ordered me a fabia splitter.
will add some photos when ive got it fitted.
I'm on the prowl for some cooksport springs and have posted over on the wanted section.
if you have any or know of anyone selling let me know.
sportlines would be ok aswell as long as...
cheers for the reply's.
what's the reason for changing back to OEM topmounts with standard shocks?
and why wouldn't you run aftermarket springs with non cup shocks?
if it hasn't got cup shocks on I will be changing to them but just curious.
looking to get me some cooksport springs for the 172 (non cup)
my questions are;
the previous owner has had ktec topmounts fitted which leads me to believe he may of changed the shocks to cup shocks. However he may not have so how do I tell the difference between standard and cup shocks?
