alexp999 Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 It's so hard taking it easy and short shifting at the moment. Don't think I'm going to be able to wait 1000 miles, maybe 100, lol. Brakes need a bit of bedding in yet anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildy89 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Show us yr motor :) how's the weekend been with all those horses under neither your right foot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexp999 Posted October 26, 2015 Author Share Posted October 26, 2015 Haven't been able to fit in with the valet yet. So have been putting it off. Did nearly 200 miles over the weekend so it already needs cleaning again before I can take some pics, lol. Will do as soon as I can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildy89 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Lol no worries.... Cannot wait for mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexp999 Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 Still haven't managed to arrange a time to go back and see the valet, plus now the car is filthy so no more daytime pics yet, but managed to grab some night ones showing off the LED puddle lights and LED boot lights. The 4000k LEDs are a good match in the boot for the interior LEDs and the 6000k ones in the puddle lights match the number plate ones pretty well, so I'm pleased how they look, much better than the yellow halogens as standard.

Stoney871 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Which bulbs did you get for the puddle lights and how tricky were they to replace? Can I recommend some really good reversing bulbs?- http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=371123457268&alt=web 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexp999 Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 I got these for the puddle lights: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/311163353801 And these for the boot: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/351217710597 Boot lights were a doddle, but puddle lights were a PIA. The proper way is to remove the mirror glass, but I had a bit of a go and bottled it, didn't want to to break them. I ended up persevering with the limited space I had moving the mirror all the way in/up and used some needle nosed pliers and thin screwdrivers like chopsticks, lol. The actual bulb holder is simple, it is just a rubber bung, the difficulty is the access. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where'd you get all your straps and nets etc for the boot? Also, thanks for the pics, that's just confirmed that the idiot dealers I get the car from mounted the number plate too low. Off to Halfrauds for a new one I guess... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see how the net works now. I won't be able to use that with the boot liner I got. Straps look spot on though, ta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
