If it was agreed that he would do all the prep work e.g. take all the windows, lights etc etc out then it is definitely his fault!! >

Yep, a big part of the preparation work would be making sure that no overspray is gonna get where it shouldn't (hence people masking off everywhere).

I would certainly mention it to them, it may be hard to prove that the radio failure was definitely caused by the overspray though??

poor ikkle babs! (and poor ikkle minipixie)

I'd definitely mention it, I keep saying you should ask Trading Standards for advice; faulty wiring, rubbish paint finish, dodgy lights, electrical problems, not something you'd expect from a decent job which you paid a lot of money for!

Baaaaah!!
The speakers have randomly gone back to being crackly!!!! Which is a bit annoying!!!!! So looks like I'm just gonna get a new head unit! As I'm guessing running two speakers off one channel may have caused it to 'short' or something like that! So I'm saving ma pennies for....

Head unit
Speaker Pods

that way i can get to two other speakers in up front at the same time as the new head unit!! lol!!

Anyone any tips of head units?
Would you recamend either.....a cd changer or....a head unit with a usb option?

Hi sian

Having a usb one is handy, but its down to personal preference of what you choose.

[minipixie]

That piece of foam goes in the gap you have in the back corner. If you open the boot, you will see a gap on each side of the backseat wall. Just squish the foam back into there and it will help seal the heat better.

Its really hard to describe. Does that make sense???


by the way, nice socks!!

[minipixie]

but the foam was wedged down in the rear door pockets thingys at the bottum??

cheers, i quite like them myself (altho when i had my wellies on this morn after walking for a bit, my socks were jus round my toes )

[TJenkos]

Im not sure then. Either it has fell or you have one at the bottom and at the back. I know i only have one at the back and it looks just like that

[minipixie]

ahhhh i c! well it's still in my foot well at the mo! will prob jus wedge it back in place 'jus incase!'

cheers!!

[Jammy]

Its badger foam, the badgers put it there so they can keep track your car and no where you are so they can plan an ambush!!

Its just insulation foam, helps keep road noise down and warmth in the cabin! Apparently!

[minipixie]

cheers for the sensible responce there jammy!!!
