Yeah very nice, much ni cer than having LEDs with hot spots.

So does this mean its a keeper then Banshee?

That is quite cool, I've had blue LEDs in the boot, been meaning to change for ages but never got round to it.

Looks nice though :thumb2

Cheers boys, and I'm not sure yet Jim, going to suck it and see for a bit i think and see if it does hurt me bad on the fuel

It'll hurt on fuel but it'll hurt even more to get rid of it:thumb2

Sorn it and buy a cheap car to run around if it turns out to be too bad:thumbs

Sounds like a solid enough plan, I'll see how it goes

Here's a link to the bulbs, they are 2.3w and not 1.2w like the standard ones that came out, as said, brighter but not bright enough to cause hot spots like LED's

You can see the difference in the pictures above if you look at the MPH KMH etc and how bright they now are

This sounds like a bloody good solution.

Does sound like a plan, buy something like a fiesta 1.4 diesel, £30 a year tax and up to 60 MPG. :thumb2

I'm thinking more something like this!!!!! Life's too short to drive something as dull as a new Fiesta

But am I right in thinking you want that for its speed and tuning capabilities? I can't imagine you chose it for looks.

All I'm thinking is you want to buy for economy but it's a big turbo diesel that prob shoots black smoke if tweaked up :thumb2

Something tells me that might appeal to you :naughty

My dad had one for years and not only did it have great fuel consumption, it never broke down and I do like the look of the 405, I love the 309 and the 205 as well, there's just something about that era :thumb2

Fair play to you :thumb2 I hope you decide to keep both if affordable

Protected!!!!

I finally got around to Waxoyl'ing the Truck yesterday, took me about 4 hours all in including, wire brushing etc etc, used x2 2.5l Pressure Cans with the pressure lance which made light work of the job, I've done a fairly neat job and more importantly upon poking around in all the nooks and crannies I didn't find any rot :thumb2

I've also put to use the extension hose this time and sprayed into every hole in the chassis :clap

That should see it last a while I hope, all I need to do now is find some more plastic clips to get the arch innards back in and then make some bigger rubber trim for in side the arches as the originals keep falling out now as the 2" body lift has meant they have ripped off :doh

 

[elty001]

I made my inner arch guards from 3mm thick rubber.bought a metre square sheet off of flea bay for about a tenner.:thumb2

The worst job mate I swear to god!!!

When I had an industrial a few years ago the guy next to me as part of his service used to spray the old engine oil he changed all over the bottom of the car, quite a common practise in days gone by. The best bit about it was he used to light a cig and smoke whilst doing it. Could you imagine some health and safety officers face nowadays seeing this. :lol:lol

I wouldn't let him near my motor :lol

My dad used to cal most/all of the holes in the chassis of his LR 110 and fill with a bit of old engine oil and would accelerate and break to slosh it up and down the chassis.
