FINALLY have dismantled my £20 roof rack! I'm very bruised and cut up, also my hands are covered in old grease and rust! Time to strip it back, paint it up and assemble... oh joy!

    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

    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

    Only enough so that it doesn't pour out the hole when you remove the sender ;-)
