I have had my dash apart so many times now to try different bulbs for brightness that i can do it with my eyes shut. Reconnecting the speedo used to be a pain until i learnt that u have to do from underneath the dash and it just pops on with minimum of fuss. Does look much better now though. Just struggling to find who does blue bulbs for around the heater controls so i can finish it once and for all.[]

Good pics m8, I will have to try and make the next meeting and raise the number of Classic's in attendance.[]

Just fitted this - What do you think? ( I had to do a bit of filing/sanding but otherwise a good bit of kit for a tenner. Before After:

Simon, Try these guys for Upgrades - meant to be really good and helpful. Haven't been myself but will be checking them out soon when I look for my next upgrade. www.kaiperformance.co.uk Quite a tragic story to their inception too. As for MOT's - not sure but one of the Maidstone guys will no doubt be along soon to enlighten you. Cheers, Matt

Welcome Simon, Believe me the urge not to tamper will soon wear off.[][Y] Cheers, Matt.

Martin, Welcome m8, I take mine to Eden Park Motors (Upper Elmers End Rd, Opposite Eden Park Station in Beckenham 020 8658 3738) - not sure how they are on decats but were okay on my sidelight bulbs. I think these days it's hard to get round the decat thing as I believe the test is pretty much online. If you can keep your old centre section and fit it back on just for the MOT it should pass with no problems. That's what most do and what I will be doing when my decat downpipe goes on later this year. You've got a good list of mods there mate - let us know how it goes - normally take mine to ScoobyClinic - would be interested to see how they compare. Cheers, Matt.

Welcome to the looney bin Matt. Cheers, Matt.

Thanks Pele, it's always good to find out a supplier is okay - mind you I suppose I should have asked before I actually bought anything. DOH! Was thinking of buying a set of his s/s exhaust manifold's - don't suppose this was one of the parts you bought? Cheers, Matt.

Pele, is there a list of Kent Scoobies merchandise?

I had the fancy ones before on my Audi and they kept gettin nicked so now i just use the black plastic ones - far cheaper and no one wants to pinch them. Might try a set of those allen key ones tho - they sound alright - mind you it won;t be long till the thievin bu99ers start carrying allen keys with them!

What have they done![:@][+o(] The back end of the hatchback looks like a daewoo - it is just horrible. [N][N][N]

You'll have to drop in next time if u see me outside m8. Are you going to the Wharf on the 20th? Might see you & Terri there - give me a chance to say thanks face to face?

Tony, put us out of our misery and let us know the cars ok m8. I'm hoping what you 2 are.

Has anybody here bought anything from RacerBits.com or jdmhondaparts as they are known on ebay? I have just ordered a brushed aluminium dial bezel to fit round my dash like the post 97 models had - will let you know how good it is. Cheers, Matt.

Blue UK300 at about 4pm this afternoon in Poverest Road - Orpington. Two guys in it - noticed you eyeing up the missus - we were in her BMW compact coming out of Bridge Rd just turning round to avoid the traffic in Cray Ave. You turned right into Marion Crescent. Then I drove past a blue stickered up newage, Y reg i think, about 7pm tonite in Perry Hall Rd.

Hi Simon, Welcome to the funny farm! Cheers,

God it's me again - I'm really getting hooked on this porn you know. I have found which kit it is though. I'm starting to go blind! http://www.chargespeed.com/english/gdb-f-t2-1-e1.htm

Me again, also looks like they do a facelift kit to convert from bugeye - hawkeye unless I am reading it wrong [:$] http://www.chargespeed.com/english/gdb-cde-f-e1.htm

Just checked out chargespeed's website and i think it is a combination of the front bumper from this kit http://www.chargespeed.com/english/gdb-fg-wide_e.htm with the remainder of the kit from here as it doesn't look like the widebody kit on the rest of the car but that front bumper is so similar. http://www.chargespeed.com/english/gdb-f-t1b-1-e1.htm

I'm not sure but I think it looks like a chargespeed kit. just checking now.

Are you trying to say my car needs waxing!!![] how very dare you!!![] only jesting m8. It was a very interesting read and the results look superb. I will definitely be trying some of that. I have been so confused with which product to choose so I have just been using some wax that I had when I had my Audi cabrio. I can't believe how well it brings out the flake on the silver cars and that BMW looks the dogs danglies with such a luvly depth to the shine. Cheers,

Terri, Thanks for the contacts will give them a call tomorrow. Has also emailed you my contact details. Cheers, Matt.

replied to m8... cheers [Y]

Cheers guys PM's replied to. [][Y]

Watch out for 41 Mike Turpin - Yellow Nova (at least it was when i last saw it) Full Kevlar shell - It's a mastrepiece to look at at it flies. It's the car i always wanted when I used to do rallyx.
