would look awesome in my opinion
I'd say keep white
Where did you buy the bulbs?
Was it difficult to change in the front as well as in the back?
Please explain.
Best regards

Im guessing you mean the indicator ones ? If so Just of ebay, front ones are very easy and the back ones arnt too bad but you have to take out the rear light
Thanks!
What kind of bulb type is it? Is it difficult to take of the rear light?
Best Regards,

its a py21w i think, the rear light is just 2 or 3 screws and then pulls off but there is little rubber things holding it in still and these can be tight
LY 182
Goes through 1st and 2nd Alot quicker, and has alot more torque, overtaking is alot easier now haha
And how did you do with the front indicators?
Did you change the bulbs on the side? i think they are orange bulbs there 2...
Best regards,
LY 182
Front indicators are the same bulbs as the rear, just open the bonnet and there is a rubber grommet, you can acces the bulbs from here, i never changed the side ones no

I got a £60 fine off a wonderful Cleveland police officer, for having a apparently non conforming plate, even though It was sold to me as road legal, off a dvla approved reg maker, to which he clutched at straws telling me that the bs code is just for the plastic, don't get yourself a fine just go get some clean ones knocked up at halfords

ahh nightmare, ill be getting some more clean plates made up at some point so theyll be legal just as a backup
Nice looking car mate. some darker headlights off of a Dynamique/GT/etc would really transform the front though IMO.
ps im taking it that with your car being an I-Music it has bluetooth? how does it work if you dont mind me asking? does it work off the buttons on the head unit or the buttons behind the steering wheel? reason I ask is im looking to add the bluetooth from an Imusic to my car.

cheers!, the bluetooth is under the glovebox and linked into the headunit harness, its controlled of the steering wheel controls, i have an aftermarket pioneer HU now though with bluetooth so i just use that
Cheers for that! Is it a parrot one? And did it display calls etc on the radio/time/date screen at the top of the dash or its own separate screen?
how much was the spoiler buddy? And was it easy to fit?
LY 182
Im not sure on what make it was, and yes it used the screen on the top of the dash, the spoiler was about £200 and its not too hard to fit, you need to drill holes in your tailgate though

I Went down to exhaust a fix in darlington today to discuss how to get the best sound from the little diesel!
origionally i was wanting a custom turbo back exhaust with a decat, but he recomended against the decat as it would loose backpressure for the turbo to go against and slow the car down
so we basically chopped off my standard backbox and tried numerous aftermarket ones to try get the nicest sound,
We went with a 2" bore resonator with a 3" twin tip
herse some pictures and a video if i can get one to work
It is filthy already because of the wet roads and from the smoke it chucks out

upload to photobucket and paste the link direct
and isnt the best exhaust for a turboed car no exhaust? i.e the freer the flow, the better?. so keeping back pressure will restrict the power?

interested to hear this exhaust as i am looking into getting one for mine, heard good things about that place in darlington
i think the back pressure thing is a myth, my logic is a freer flow, the easier it is to spool the turbo, i will be getting a decat when i find the time, as it resonates the pigeon sound more
either way looks good mate, think it needs a cut out or GT style bumper to look more OEM

Thats what i though, thats why i asked for a decat and no backbox but the man said the turbo needs backpressure pr something ? Dont ask me haha i just believed him, it ended up about £200 cheaper just putting a aftermarket back box on and a new tip,

Video hopefully?

im not saying youre wrong, i just thought it'd be worth mentioning incase this guy was speaking s**t to you.
i cant remember why but i remember turbo cars need free flowing exhausts and n/a cars need back pressure
video didnt work for me, took me to my pb
LY 182
Yee i understand, im not that botherd anyway, i only really wanted noise and it sounds alot better now imoim not saying youre wrong, i just thought it'd be worth mentioning incase this guy was speaking s**t to you.
