I've bought replacement ball joint sets from Minispares, for both hubs and I'm just buying the splitter now.

I would put the nut on even if you are replacing the ball joints as it will give you a better surface area to push against and there will be less chance of it slipping off. Personally i like the fork type splitters and a BIG hammer

I've ordered the cup type, there seems to be alot of differing opinions on splitters... IF it works, it works, if not i'll order another one :P

National apprenticeships website. Also take you CV to local businesses. I was unemployed, working part-time a couple of months ago, so don't give up, there's a job just around the corner, waiting for you. :)

You put soapy water on the bonnet or area your add the decals too, this lets the decals slide around till your happy where they are then press into place, let the water dry, all done. It's a great way of fitting decals.

It should be the only way. Only easy way to guarantee they're a) in the right place and b) no bubbles. Google it!

Mine has been off the road for 8 months. I've been trying to see the silver lining in how much fuel I've saved!

Polished mine and gave it a couple coats of wax. First time it's actually looked good in the rain, then the passenger footwell filled with water. Oh well ;)

You might as well ask. You may be lucky and the seller just refunds. Even if you have to return it, it would be worth it. I have been on the end of complaints myself on ebay but this still hasn't stopped me returning stuff if things aren't as described. I do always give people a chance though as sometimes genuine mistakes are made. I've only ever once had to leave negative feedback for someone.

If there is a problem, then tell them about it. It's the crooks that claim things are described wrong to get refunds that annoy me

A while ago I was selling off loads of army clothing. I described a pair of trousers as new, and accidentally sent him the less than new ones. When he messaged me, I double checked and had sent the wrong ones so just sent the new ones to him and told him to keep the old ones for the inconvenience! By the time I paid the postage for the new pair, the return of the old pair it wasn't worth the hassle getting them back. A nice happy customer! Sometimes mistakes do happen, so just get...
