  1. If you turn the ignition off, then doesn't that stop the power steering working, and hence is rather dangerous whilst moving ? i often wonder what happens if the ignition si turned off on new cars that have fly-by wire throttles and brakes :S Brake servo doesn't work when engine is off and not running, but if you put it in gear it'll still work dispite engine not running.
  2. Now with added pics:- <- interesting this isn't the front seats of the car i bought :-S i've got a dash picture somewhere that is also the old model. <-this picture of a dashboard in fact
  3. I fixed the radio illumination in my 96 myself. If you can solder, just remove the radio/ climate control panel. Then split the radio box open and look for the bulb power regulators, which are transistors mounted on metal heat sinks. You will find that the soldering to these will be badly "dry jointed". Clean them up and resolder them to restore your bulb power. Paul how do i go about getting the radio/climate control panel out fo the dash? many thanks
  4. now i feel dopey.....there the other way up lmao. thanks for all the tips floggit :)
