  1. Hi, i'm new here but currently owning my second is200.

    On the previous one i also had a radiator pannel (from apr) and it made the car pull worse then without? Did you feel any change?

    Also interested in the i-pod adapter got any more info about it? Wiring etc.

    Much appreciated

    Never really noticed a difference mate. Just think it looks nice lol

    I got it from eBay on the cheap mate, came with instructions but it basicly just fits into the back of the head unit with a push on block fitting. It is awesome tho!!!!

  3. Cool cool...im not looking for a shine or sparkle...just a best colour match with the rear likes....want to get smoked repeaters also...

    With the indicators.....we are 582 wedge type correct? Can only see 581s on Ebay :-(

    If you look at my last update you ll see that i ve done the same wi the indicators but for a grand total of a fiver!lol

    Used a can of light tinting spay, which is a sillicone based paint.

    Also used this to paint the inners of my headlights and its given a sort of dark crome effect i ll get pics up later :D

  4. col mate you'd think so but the usual woman thing.......its a mans job to do the cars..but wait for it when i said its a womans job to do the washing and ironing(fairs fair)

    james if you are going to get a celica mate get a tsport or a 190(same thing just badged up diff) or you will be very dissapointed!!the 140 is no good and slower than a week in jail with buba as your cell mate!!

  7. As today is my birthday my lovely misses bought me a set of bonnet gas struts for the Lex, so off to the garage i went to fit my new toys.

    What a ball-ache it turned out to be, had to swap the front brackets to give the gas strut some extra clearance over the ABS breaking system, but then the nut holding the gas strut to the top bracket catches the back of the ABS!

    So when i open the bonnet there's a slight catchy noise as the nut rubs!

    Also had the pack oiut the drivers front bracket to stop it spining when you close the bonnet due to it not fitting flush to the wing!!

    Hay ho!

    Will post photos when i get a chance...

    i would take pics mate i'll see if i can help sounds like you have done something wrong??????.....when i was at the mini meet me and micro fitted the ones i bought off him and they fitted perfect no catching no rubbing and the bonnet sits higher when opened than with the bonnet stay

    Lol that was a good laugh like.

    Many times did we move them?lol
