You can have the actual headlamp unit in black- obviously the reflector units are chrome but the bits that arent needed are in black. Looks propper good on a black car
I'm hopefully picking one up in february, haters gonna hate and all that

Is this why it wouldn't start the other day Max?
Sep 05 2012 08:11 PM -
minimaxie
Do you know what Paul I reckon it couldve been, seems odd why it done it so must of been the immobilizer. The only thing is I dont recall seeing the light blinking on the dash indicating the immobilizer was active last time

When replacing a fuel sender unit, does all the fuel in the tank need to be drained? Stupid question I know but I'm still learning lol
Aug 28 2012 03:37 PM

Skortchio
Only enough so that it doesn't pour out the hole when you remove the sender ;-)
Aug 28 2012 04:30 PM -
