    Euro Car Parts Discount

    Yeah it's not too bad, you have to drill a hole in the back of the cap to fit the HID lamp: And find somewhere to mount the ballast, there's a flat bit on the bottom of the headlight that I used with some double sided foam tape:

    Euro Car Parts Discount

    The beam pattern might be better, but the reason people usually fit them is because they are fitting HID lamps. Typically you can't fit these to normal-type headlights as the light scatters everywhere, you can't see any better at night than you could before, and everyone going the other way gets...

    Euro Car Parts Discount

    From left to right, the small one below the line of the others is the side light, then the high beam, then the dipped beam (which is the projector), then on the outside is the cornering light which won't work unless you had them from the factory. At the top is the indicator. My headlights came...

    Euro Car Parts Discount

    I ordered a pair of OEM Valeo projector headlights for my 197, with the discount applied it came out at a bit over £200 for the pair - bargain. Might get some Philips Xtreme Vision H7's for the high beams and silvervision indicators too.

    Hello, sold my A45 AMG for a Clio 200t EDC LUX

    Was the M135i 'rowdy' in a good way or a bad way? Had these pegged as a possible car for the future, a friend had a 120d with the ZF8 and even then it went well.

    Mtec C-Hook Discs

    Because on expensive 'drilled' discs the holes are cast into the disc when it's made (so not really drilled at all), and not drilled afterwards.

    197 Speedo Unit

    Thanks chaps, might look into getting another unit and just swap the bit with the crack in it over, the 200 dials are nice but can't be doing with getting the mileage corrected.

    197 Speedo Unit

    The clear plastic part of my sppedo unit has a bit of a crack in it and I was thinking about changing it for another one. Has anyone done this before? I'd expect that the unit doesn't store the mileage but just displays it from whatever control unit does store it (i.e. you just plug a new unit...

    Headlight options?

    Yeah, reflector lenses are no good for HID's unless your a spacker and don't mind blinding everyone. Add-in LED lamps seem to be somewhat lacking as well from what I read, so best bet is probably to fit some projector headlights and put some HID's in those. You can get Valeo units from ECP for...

    Dash Cam

    I'd definitely go for a dedicated unit rather than mess about attaching my phone every time I got in the car, it's a bit of a faff and you know the one time you give it a miss is when some blind tosser drives into you and denies everything. I've got a Transcend DrivePro 200 in my Smart car and...

    Redirect to Myfilestore.com

    Looks like this is still happening, you can add an entry for myfilestore.com into your hosts file so it resolves to localhost (or 0.0.0.0) so the spam page won't actually load.

    Redirect to Myfilestore.com

    Hi, Just a FYI but I'm occasionally seeing redirects to myfilestore.com when coming here from Google, it doesn't happen everytime and I think this is by design (theirs), but it does seem to be a vBulletin issue so not sure if there is an update from them to fix it. Cheers, Andy
