    Recaro Airbags/Connectors

    So to cut a long story short, I managed to source a set of recaros for my car :drool: Had a proper look at them today, and the airbag wires have been snipped off where they would go into the carpet: On the standard seats, there is a connector in the side of the seat just behind the plastic...

    Adjusting the headlight beams?

    So got my new projectors in which are great, but drivers side lamp seems a lot brighter than the passenger side - I can see the reflection in cars in front of me, and had someone drive ahead to check them.

    Water puddle under car

    A few times this week I've noticed that when I've been parked up the car has been leaving a small puddle of water underneath it. It is definitely not oil, and has no smell / colour to it so the only thing I can think of it being is possibly warm air condensing off the air con...does this...

    Poorboys Wheel Sealant and Bilberry

    Just have a quick question, hopefully someone will know the answer. I seal my wheels every few months with poorboys wheel sealant, and use diluted bilberry fairly often in between. Just wondering whether the bilberry will be removing the sealant and I'm therefore undoing my work on the wheels??!

    Vibe Slick 50

    Been looking around for a fairly cheap set of speakers as I have no rears in my car, and came across these Vibes. For now I'll be putting new ones in the front and switching the factories to the back until I get some more. I have virtually no clue when it comes to audio, so do these look ok...
