The HU is supposed to be this new S-drive or whatever to prevent skipping but I never had skips on the CDX-MP40 I used to have installed. Think it might be a sticking laser. Will see if playing CDs for a bit and not MP3 discs frees it off. Unless anyone else knows owt?

Getting skips on the CD, worse for MP3 (cos the laser is moving slower?). Thing is Ill get in the same place or there abouts on a track but itll clear if I play the track a few times and then it might happen elsewhere... So Im thinking it isnt scratched CD cos it woulnt go away. It does seem...

Nah, I keep the drugs inside the spare tyre :-)

If you dont want to cut then use a pair of mole grips or similar, work it left and right till its loose and itll pull off. NB youll have loads of white powder coming out of it as you loosen it off so Id put a bit of sheet/rag over the console so you dont have to vac it up.

Either that or buy an aftermarket CD and an adaptor for the stalk control.

Bugger. Cheers though. Maybe I could buy a Corsa and let the kids trash it, that might be fun.

Obviously you dont have kids. I want to fit the covers I just need to know whether theyll be dangerous.

Okay I want to fit some seat covers to the Clio but it has side airbags. Mate of mine says that you can fit the covers if they are tight because the airbag will just tear through. My understanding was always that you couldnt fit seat covers to cars with side airbags. Anyone know for sure? Also...

Origin B2 with the optinal radar add-on, do a search there are loads of threads and theres one with pics thats current. Road Angel 2 is considered second best unless you need to move the unit from car to car.

The Infinity reference range are v good for the brass.

You got decent speakers in it? Just wonder if you blew the speakers. Best bet though is to run a new wire from the hu to the door speaker and see if it works. If it does start looking at the multiplug etc.

Join ClioSport and you get a discount with K-Tec.

Dunno about that, if it was borrowed then do you know who from? They either: Knew about it and deserve it or they might want to know that the scrote is using their car as a getaway vehicle

I wonder how long it takes to replace four tyres, front and rear screens, mirrors and side windows of a CAVALIER ? ;) When you are in traction...

Just go to buy online from the homepage

Not reading the threads on here I wouldnt, sounds like everyone got ripped off big time. I want to get the whole lot blue too so if anyone finds a def solution to doing it let me know.

Run a wire to the light switch so the glove box light comes on when the lights are on. You wont see owt unless the glovebox is open and then you have no spurious switches.

Agreed you dont know who he is could have been much worse.

Sounds like there is either a short somewhere (you may have disturbed some wiring trying to fix the radio or the alternator is US and is spiking. Check the alternator output at the battery, with the enging on it should be 13v ish. In all fairness mate I think you arent gonna fix this yourself...

If you want a really neat fit on a MkII install the mic inside the interior light assembly behind the little grille at the front. Theres a felt strip that will need removing but then you wont se the mic at all.

If your fitting co-ax in the front and rear disconnect the factory tweeters. The rear speaker covers pop at the back and middle and then slide out at the front.

takes an hour max

Yeah if you want to be alerted remotely you can always have a pager fitted to a standard alarm.

Trading standards is a good start. Make sure you have put everything in writing then give them the ten days. If this isnt done confirm this in writing to Trading Standards and also see what organisations the place is a member of (Motor Vehicle Repairers Association etc.) and contact them. CC the...

Looks like itll do the job.

they have just put up about sixteen new cameras round morley. On the roads in question I havnt seen any flowers or accidents. There are no cameras anywhere near my kids schools and heading up to Bruntcliffe high the cameras are all in places to catch people speeding on the striaghts pas t the...

Sorry to bump this if no one is interesting but I got some feedback and if you were interested but couldnt help then this is the state of play if anyone has similar issues: Cobra closure modules work by supplying current to the window close system and at the same time measuring the resistance...

Wires get hot from current not voltage bud. If the meter is set to measure current (amps) its has virtually no resistance where for measuring voltage the resitance is high. If you connected the meter to the yellow and to earth and set it to amps with no load on it you effectively shorted the...

Aye this is def a popular question, a sticky might save a bit of typing.
