    UCH Ratchet Connector and Epileptic Lights/Electrics

    UCH, ECU etc compatibility between engine sizes

    Morning guys and girls, I just wanted to know whether a donor set of electrics in the form of the ECU, UCH, keys etc. would be a straight swap between different engine sizes, or whether I would have to find the parts from an identical vehicle. Cheers :D

    Afternoon all, The time has come to replace my battery, as it is well and truly knakered. Does anyone have any recommendations for a standard battery, possibly places that offer warranty or guarantees? I've been looking at the Bosch S4 to replace my OEM one. Cheers in advance :p

    Morning guys and girls, My starter motor has decided that its had enough and is wallowing in self pity so I have to get rid of it. Am I right in saying it's basically two bolts and the electrical socket to gain access? (Mk2 ph2 2003 1.2) Cheers in advance :D

    Other Manufacturers Aerials?

    Evening guys and girls, I'm looking into removing the aerial and the base, and replacing it with a smaller, better looking one rather than the richbrook thing I've got on at the minute. Been thinking about the s2000 aerials, but I was wondering if anyone came across any which look really smart?
