well we have been out for a meal and the car didn't miss a beat and more importantly the coolant level seems to have stayed constant - will have to check in the morning. Still got a whistle under load at about 3000 revs - sounds like a belt? but I did slacken them off a bit but also everything...

you know looking on the net the ones for the original mini look the same and are metal? http://www.retrominisltd.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=285 just a thought?

I thought of melting it but the part thats cracked mates with the actual thermostat so I thought I might make it worse. Weird thing though - when I first took the stat out the other day it was sitting on a rubber seal what fits exactly into the head if you can picture it? So I have just tried...

Banshee dont worry its just me having a childish moment lol, its my own fault for messing. It wasn't seeping that bad this morning but a leak is a leak so I thought I'd re sit it again but since then its piddling out. I have been carefull as its plastic and maybe the crack was already there but...

well after calming down and having another go (20 times and counting now) noticed there is a crack on the inside of the housing so Im stuffed. Cant find them on ebay so its off the road all for a bloody thermostat - great promised the daughter we'd go out today and need the car for picking my...

well got uip today and lost coolant again - seeping from stupid plastic thermostat cover. Taken it off and cleaned up and put on gasket compound - this makes it leak more. Taken off and cleaned gasket compount off got back to stock and put on and still leaks. No splits in plastic everything...

I can only see led ones on eblag wouldn't they produce "hot spots" instead of a diffused light?

Had them done via my local auto factor place A 2 Z in fenton stoke on trent cost me £150.

Thats what has always put me off, plus surely they draw in warm air from the engine bay whereas the original has air com ing to it from the outside?

those are the buggers, only middle one works in mine - cheers for that

Cheers for that

Ive got one end missing off my manly boards, the last owner had them welded on as they fell off lol. I must admit I'd ditch em but my elderly father needs them to get in the terrano.

Yep just like that. I used to have then on a pajero along the bottom of the door part looking onto the running boards - looked like a ufo as it came down the road lol.

Ive got a volt meter already in the car but I have illuminated toggle switches and will position these where the window switches go in the older terrano models next to the hand brake. Going to fit front a rear blue led footwell lights and a masters dwitch for the roof dvd player.

Nah I'd put my money on a dodgy owner lol:naughty

Well got some 4mm plastic and made space for single din and a new hazard push button switch. Cover plastic in fake carbon fibre. Wired in hazard switch and braced the back with wood cut to size. Total cost £5.69. I think its better than the £114 quid ones you have to buy.

Windows in limo black - I love it

Banshee no worries lol, it is funny though.:doh

given up put old stat back in and it doersn't leak, new one is same size but no lip on the underside like the old one so this must be the issue - weird as local motor factors assured me it was correct?
