Can anyone link me to a direct swap LED light to replace the standard interior courtesy light please? I'm clueless when it comes to searching for things like this lol

Just be careful. I replaced my brake lights and they were crap. Should be ok with the interior light tho.

I believe the interior light is a BA15 bulb. Just search BA15 LED in ebay. Unless the bulbs for is for an earlier car where the interior light bulbs are festoon's... in which case i don't know which bulb you want ;) Hope this helps.

The only reason I've stayed at my current place is because it's a couple of miles down the road. 10 minute bike ride. I would quite happily commute an hour or so to get to work, but the train station's nearly an hours walk from my house and busses are useless. Infact the only bus through my estate goes into nottingham, 8 miles, and takes over an hour!

Not a bad set up, the zoom lens is a good one for motorsport, especially if you're sitting in the grand stands!

Failed the MOT but they are very quick and simple fixes. At least there is no welding to do!

The things you do when you're drinking you don't think twice about. I've done the same kind of things myself ;)

Deox C powder for bits on the engine, and gel for some hard to get at crevices on the head and block :)

Havnt tried that stuff, show us how it goes on the build thread! I used tr hydrate-80. Exellent quality and really good paint base. I had a rusty bit of sheet steel I covered it in and then painted over 4 months ago.. Still fresh:D
Mar 06 2013 09:27 PM -
RawlinsGTR
Will do! I'm not using it as a paint base or anything, just need it to remove rust whilst I'm doing other bits, rather than mashing up metal trying to get it off!
