Didn't know these existed! it says you can reuse them, is that true? it's just a case of drying them out and you can use them for as long as you want?

A new coil, most people don't realize how bad there current one is until they replace it.

bit over a tenner though http://www.minispare...id=33876&title=


A rubber glove with the finger tips cut off to go over the dizzy, keeps the water out and you probably already have one under the sink

This costs £2.10 delivered as another option. Quality is excellent - i have one - very low profile and sleek

With a bit of soldering it can be wired up to a live without using a ciggy socket. Or you can pair it will the ciggy socket.

Replaced the silly snout thing on the airbox with a home made velocity stack fashioned from a bit of 40mm plastic pipe, flared out at the end by heating and forming on a salt cellar...cost about £3 from B&Q and I've got enough pipe to make at least 5!

I have one of these but it's a twin one - so that's the phone and a mates phone or a sat nav on the rare occasion I use one.
