    Happy Birthday Dego!

  2. Does anyone have a full set for sale (All 4 wheels) or know of a cheap source to get them? Would there be any problems using salvaged ones from a breakers yard? Also is the kit the same for the S model as the SE and sport models? Cheers.
  3. I'm in the military but as far as the insurance is concerned I'm a civil servant. Technically I'm not lying to them.
  4. I have the climair ones, front and back, highly recommended, just google them. They came with some small blue writing in each corner but this was easily removed for a more OEM look. I used medical adhesive removal wipes to remove them. They look well and are tinted nicely too.
  5. Can you advise of any centre in Ireland (North or South) that you would trust to carry out your geo settings. I tried one place before and wasn't happy with the results. They didn't get close enough to your settings and tyre wear still persisted.
  6. I have that problem too, I would really appreciate a pair of the hooks as well if you have any left. My local dealer say he cant get them.
  7. I have the touch diamond too, and think it's a great phone once flashed with a third part ROM. Only problem I have is that sometimes it accidently answers or rejects incoming calls when in my pocket, because the touch screen activates when a call comes in. Anyone else have this problem???
  8. My sis is a nurse and she gave me medical adhesive removal wipes. They will shift even the stickiest of stuff, brilliant. Might be available in a pharmacy??? I used them to take off the decals on the climair wind deflectors for a more oem look, worked a treat, and didn't stain or leave any marks afterwards.
  9. I have done this. I assume the blue wire is your switched live. But now I have another problem that wasn't there before I spliced as shown. Now my head unit will not switch off automatically when I turn the key to off. It used to before. The radio reception is better, which is a plus, but it is annoying to have to turn the head unit off manually each time. Any one have any suggestions, have I missed something???
  10. Could you tell me what type of paint is Astral Black and does it need a laquer if spraying parts? I asked in a post before but have never got a definitive answer.
  11. 02 plate and car has 75K miles. Any tell tale signs of shocks being worn?
  12. I'm starting to think it's probably a better idea to just save up for a good set of 35mm lowering springs, seen some for about £175. I heard that 35mm was ok with standard dampers, sound right to you guys??? Would changing to 18" rims offset the speedo calibration at all?
  13. Cheers for the swift replies lads :D I was thinking of this mod because it could be much cheaper than most lowering springs and dampers. However the standard sport springs may not lower the car by as much as those. 25mm max??? Is it worth it? What do you's think, bearing in mind that the S model has smaller wheels than the sport. Would 25mm be noticable? I will eventually be getting new rims in the future but on the long finger for now. One job at a time
  14. Can the standard IS200 sport springs be fitted to an S model, and if so how much should they lower the car by? Is it a big job and does anyone know how much it would cost in labour for the swop over?
