Dropped a piece of a Morrison's Bramley apple pie. By the time I found it I was over the 20 seconds limit where it was safe to eat it. :(

You will have to check. For example my Mambas have a high spacer built into them, so I need super long studs.

Would I get away with these as side repeaters on the wing? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BSA-Triumph-Norton-MG-Mini-Lucas-SPB357-Amber-Warning-Light-Lamp-with-12V-Bulb-/321206624822?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4ac9682236

They should be fine, I think you can get LED ones like that which would be better.

they look sick
therefore do it

problem with LED's as indicators is that they then need resistors or they flash too fast. I'm trying to do something discrete and easy, as they're only going on to please mot/vosa, if it was my way, my nice new wings would be hole free!

I'm due some new pads and disks now. Do these make much of a difference from normal pads and disks. http://www.minisport.com/surestop-brake-kit-mini-1984-on-8-4-discs.html

The drilled and grooved discs are good, they have their advantages, however it's unlikely you'll notice them on a road car. Stick with standard.

I've got drilled and grooved front discs on my Vectra and the one time they are really noticeable is when its wet. The car stops so much better in the wet than it did before with its normal discs. In the dry there isn't much difference.

Great. Didn't buy an IMM ticket as have a long-standing arrangement with a Client flying in from abroad for this weekend. They've just called to say they were on Malaysian Airlines and have cancelled their flight and can't re-arrange for this week. I want to kill someone.

Miniminx71
I'd normally say, you can't miss the car but, on that day, you probably could:-) I'll sort myself out and let you know ..
