  2. cheers guys, it darkens the interior up nicely for that stealthy look, next im going to try and get a second head lining and recover it in a black suede fabric or similar. Also what do you guys think about a light tint on the front windows just to sort of blend the rear to the front abit?

  8. No no no, id be suprised if its the hubs, its the discs, i had this problem too pain in the ****! Take your standard discs (providing there relativerly new ie dont have a large step on the outer edge of the disc) to a decent machine shop and have them skimmed, had mine done cost a tenner a disc i think and they havent had a hint of vibration since!

  11. Been meaning to post this for ages realy, i have just fitted 4 tyres today and every time i fit new tyres and balence them the stick on weights always catch slightly on the caliper, tick tick tick effing tick! Drives me mad! Any one else notice this?
  12. after andrew said about the collapsible column i twigged, when i bought the car the air bag light was on and there was/is a scrape on the near side front bumper, its also had a wing and head light and the edge of the wing mirror was cracked, all is straight underneith so no structual damage, if there air bag is activated would the affect the column?
  13. No body had this problem?? No one else has play in there steering??
  14. Id have either perposly tried to squeeze my car along side it to be a tw*t or reported his number plate to the police for illegal spacing!!! See whos boss then

  16. Right set out last week to change the steering rack as ive loads of play in my steering, about a 1/2 inch to an inch each way!!! Any way as i was unbolting the universal joint on the column i caught the steering wheel with my shoulder and noticed that the joint didnt move ?? So i put a pair od mole grips on the column just above the UJ and stood on them so in affect the wheel cannot be turned, but it still has the play!!?? Im now confused as i thought the column was one solid piece, does any one Know what can wear in the column itsself as i cant see any thing at all with movement!? Help
