TrickTT

Can't be bothered to dig out any pics, but Cybil Sheperd and the BMW M6 from Moonlighting. Had to have the car as well - BMW's used to be cool

much like the condensation, all cars smell of fuel on start up as the ecu runs rich for a few minutes - think of it like a choke on a carburettor (if you're old enough to remember such things (Damm i'm old)). Take it for a run to get it good and hot and see if the smell goes away, if it does, don't worry.

cliffords have an optional boot release module that can plug into the alarm and will work on the soop. not sure how much they are, but they can be fitted later if you only have the cash for the basic alarm now

Traction control is a black plug, could be part of the stock loom for the active spoiler/heated seats though

the 4 individual wires on the left dont look like toyota wires to me - aftermerket turbo timer?

I think the 3 arrows drawn together go to the stock amp

These are similar to those fitted to my old audi and the better halfs ford galaxy, they work reasonably well at m-way speeds. Carl0s, you might have more luck finding a peugeot 406 in the breakers - they have spray jets on the wiper arms too.

Bit late now, but this is the method we use for jump starting trucks. ign on, lights on fan on, everything that can draw current switched on, then connect the leads and start engine. Theory is if there is a power surge it will go through all the lights etc and not damage anything critical. Has always worked for me. I know this doesn't help you now, hope you get it sorted.

Used this last night at work....... Brilliant:looney: :rlol: add some sweetcorn for added realism

1) Terawua 2) Scoboblio 3) Trick152 dont get to sit in a warm office in front of a computer though, just got back home

if someone is sitting on my ar$e, i slow down - 30mph in the fast lane anyone? Winds them up like you cant believe. Then floor it as soon as they look like they are going to undertake

To seperate the unit, get a small circular saw attachment on a dremel and CAREFULLY cut through the glue, then prise apart. There are 3 small screws that hold the LED circuit board to the backing. Check for dry solder and broken pcb tracks (especially round the screw holes). Reassemble with hot glue. If its the whole thing that is not working i'd check the connections to the unit first, before taking it apart.

Someone on this board recommended Norwich Union to me. Much cheaper than AA/RAC

I know we have a few bikers on here: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ABUS-GRANIT-INSURANCE-LOCK-CHAIN-Honda-Suzuki-Yamaha_W0QQitemZ8004989996QQcategoryZ25643QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

if you have the lights and ignition on, then turn the ignition off and open the door, all the lights go off. Turn the lights off before you open the door, then switch them on and the sidelights work

The only catch in those "lifetime gaurantees" is its the lifetime that you own the car - they're non transferable. as most people own a car for 3 - 4 years, its a winner for the shop. Unfortunately my dad owned his last car for 27 years and had 10 new batteries on it. Last time he had it changed they bought him out of the contract with £40 worth of vouchers.

everything should light up, ABS, oil level, oil pressure and engine management on the RHS are the most important to have working. Then they should all go out within a couple of seconds after the engine fires ( except door open and seatbelt)

Do those stinger devices you guys use work on 'run flat' tyres? Just curious...

Mine is wired up exactly as in the circuit diagram and works fine. The only thing i can suggest is changing the value of some of the resistors. Maybe some of the bulb fail units are more sensitive than others.

Its all 18mm MDF. Tested it at work last night and its making 127dB - i thought it was going to blow the back window out. Dont know much about fibreglass, but i would guess at as thick as possible

Gold Hammerite smooth for the calipers, silver hammerite smooth for the rear drum. Make sure the caliper is totally clean and try not to drive the car for at least 24hrs to let the paint harden. mine still look good after 6 months

I want to do this on mine - 1 bar for day to day use (easy on the turbos) and 1.2 bar for sport. Only problem is all the restrictor ring seem to be for 1.2 bar. I could probably make some if anyone knows what thickness the ring needs to be and what size hole?

Man says to wife 'I had a wet dream about you last night, I dreamt you got run over by a bus and I pissed myself laughing'. A woman asked her hubby if he knew how she could make her bust bigger. He said 'try rubbing toilet paper between your tits, it's worked for your arse'. My uncle just got struck off the medical register for having sex with his patients, it's a real shame cause he's a really good vet. Woman walks past a pet shop with a sign reading 'For sale clitoris licking frog' She goes in and the shopkeeper say's 'Bonjour madame'. Yesterday I read an article about the dangers of drinking too much, it scared the shit out of me. So today I decided I'm never reading again. Little girl gets lost in Tesco's, security guard asks her 'what's your mum like?' Little girl replies 'Big cocks and vodka'. Boss has to lay off Ann or jack. Ann walks into the office, boss say's 'I have a problem, I have to lay you or Jack off..... Ann says 'You better jack off, I've got a headache'. Larry la Prise who wrote the hokey cokey has died aged 93. The worst part was getting him into the coffin. They put his left leg in, then the trouble started. Paul McCartney poem inspired by his wife Heather -: We lay upon the grassy bank, my hands were all a quiver, I slowly undid her suspender belt and her leg fell in the river. It's important to keep fit as you get older, my granny started walking 5 kilometres a day when she was 60. Today she's 97 and we don't know where the hell she is! An Asian died and went to heaven, at the gates he saw St. Peter. He said to St. Peter 'I'm here for Jesus' St. Peter turned around and shouted 'Taxi for JC'. Tampax have replaced the string on their tampons with a piece of tinsel....They say it's only for the Christmas period. A woman goes to her doctor with a bit of lettuce hanging out of her vagina.Doc say's 'that looks nasty'. She say's 'Nasty?, it's just the tip of the iceberg!' Two newly weds turn up at a hotel and ask for the honeymoon suite, the receptionist asks 'do you have reservations?' The bride answers 'Yes, I won't take it up the arse'!

the interior light fuse is under the bonnet - i think it is called 'dome' on the fusebox lid - 7.5A
