  1. Have you fiddled about with the handbrake micro switch? And if you have to no avail have you tried another one?
  2. Is it the outer or inner? If its inner or middle just use sheet with a 90 degree lip to mate up that's what I did, used a bit thicker for extra sturdiness. For outer I used Hadrian pattern panels and they were a perfect fit
  3. There was a shop in uk that sold them but they stopped on account of quality control
  4. Stupid question? Did the donor car have air con?
  5. There's 2 different versions one for the stock button and one for smooth solenoid, supposedly they aren't too good of a fit straight away and need a bit of fine tuning
  6. Just make sure you lock the steerin dead ahead or you'll have a wonky wheel
  7. Those aygos don't sound bad though with the little off beat 3cyl engine, that's half a v6 lol
  8. yea as far as the engine goes its pretty amazing, 199g/km CO2 for an engine designed like 20 years ago. For a 2.8 V6 its awesome, for a 20 year old 2.8 V6 its astonishing
  9. I have done this to mine as a sealed recirc system and my inlet had been grime free since, the pipe diameter is 19mm but I've been running a 15mm sized catch tank as no one seems to do 19mm but you'll still need 19mm ID oil resistant hose as that's the size of the breathers on the engine and intake elbow
  10. yea the headlight switch was a b@stard to do, took me ages to do, then when I'd finished it, I put it in the car and snapped the casing together and it all died, so I had to take it apart and package it all up in a different way, as id soldered the LEDs by their legs and once fully together found id measured wrong and they all bent and snapped lol
  11. I think I've finally sorted all the lighting that I wasn't happy with, be it too bright, too dim or not working at all, it's also now fully LED so will hopefully be maintenance free for a long while, these pics show the befores and afters. After I re did the heater dials I found it too bright in these dark winter nights, so I dimmed them off a bit, no glare any more. Before After Then I did my headlight switch which was pretty much no light at all. Before Now its much better After And finally the clocks, these were so dim with the crappy little 1w bulbs as standard, I swapped in some super
  12. Haha I was thinking the exact some thing for destroying it, pound it into dust then burn it
  13. Press it and see what happens
  14. as long as you like no torque! get a cheap VAG TDI and surf the torque wave and do 600 miles on 1 tank
  15. Very cool, I would love some black samco!
  16. Have you not seen films? All gearstick buttons enable NOS, afterburner or transform features, lucky!!!
  17. if some tracks on your element arent working you can just scribble pencil on them, graphite is conductive, although you have a high chance youd have to re do it every time you cleaned the inside of your glass. if the coolant hoses in the engine bay are hot but the blowers arent then it will be to do with the matrix yes. might want to try some speed flush or something
  18. theres a massive one near the abs pump, gaffer tape the wire to a metal bbq skewer and poke through, untape the wire and withdraw the skewer, there you go a self sealing hole, easy peasy
  19. if you look at the bottom edge of the skirts front and rear there are sections cut, these mark the jacking points
  20. Just noticed, mag = maf, damn autocorrect
  21. It is simply status lights, doesn't have any effect other than that
  22. What is the part number on the side of yours? it will have to be the same as there are a few different connectors with different size pins. It should be connected with a black 6 pin plug and its purpose is the lights act as a status indicator for the airbag and abs, if it was unplugged from when you bought it the previous owner could have done it to hide a problem with either of these systems
  23. air getting to the window? its a heated element you know?
