  1. mind mate if your wanting to get it to get the actual turning side of things working then you will need to check for the loom ect :wink: mines is just in the straight ahead possition
  2. to get the actual turning side of it to work you would need to check under the steering coloum cover and check for the loom , check the cables going to the lamps for the extra loom there as well , you would need a sensor bought that goes round the steering coloum . thats what i know you need but im sure theres still even more needed mines are set to straight ahead . they are a dramatic improvement over the standard lamps as the focus the beam of light that comes from the lamp and lights up the road a lot beter than the standard unit .
  3. where were you going to pic them up from ?

  7. definatly mate id want the head taken of to check the bore and rings or a boreascop (sp) down to check it out , compression tests , sump taken of to check for metal fillings the lot . no way would i take my car back with some oil stuck in it :evil: Thanks for that guys. I have passed a copy of the thread to my neighbour. He is hopefully going to join the FFOC anyway. When he eventually gets the car back, he is going to book it in somewhere for a thorough check of the engine. Pete id tell him not to take the car back as once he has it will be a dam sight harder to get it back in if it do

  11. from the above cut and paste that was my understanding of the law surrounding hids and thats why every car manufacturer that fits hids also fits washers and some form of self leveling . with so many people saying it is the law and others sayining it isnt speaks volumes to me im afraid . if its such a grey area all it takes is one copper or mot man having a good eye to say your car is not legal no mot or return to standard then have it inspected and then report back to a cop shop all of that resulting in a headache and a bad day or having an accident and being told my headlights were not

  15. to be honest me either the gaps in the pics are just big enough to get a small slither of paper through yet there pillars have water running down them and a wet boot carpet :shock: worst of all forgot to check my hinges today and it pitch black out side now but did stick my hand under the parcel shelf mouts but couldnt feel any foam in there on either side :? it worries me as a couple of weekends ago i washed the car including door checks and when i was finnished the temp dropped and freezed the water . the next morning the windscreen and rear window had ice on the insides :lol: . hop
  16. according to that link its the seal around the door hinges every one thought it was the lights and roof rails and hinges but they all turned out to be the hinges as far as i can see :wink:

  23. been toying for ages with the idea of new head lights either getting the adaptive lighting system fitted but found no loom :( , or the balck ones or after market projectors fitted but to be hones i dont realy think they would look good on my car so ive made a dessicion and got the headlamps for adaptive lighting and got them set at the straight ahead possition . i think they look great :D much more modern than the standard head lights yet still looking kind of oem rather than after market i also got some halfords super bright brilliant blue bulbs and the difference at night is scary to
