Keep the Valeo lights handy at all times in a knapsack. When darkness falls, simply pop them in place of the OE lights. Reverse the procedure at daybreak.
Maybe stop if you start fearing crosses and garlic. :laugh:

MC71:
^^^^ I'll pop out and change them now!  :wink:

Johnboy2110:
so much want for this car!! awesome mate well done. :congrats: :happy2:

MC71:
^^^^ Thanks muchly!  :happy2:

Needed some new pressed plates after my front one fell somewhere on the A11 so after being pointed in the direction of some on ebay (sorry I can't remember who but thanks  :drinking:) I was well chuffed when they turned up within 48 hrs and they are pretty good quality and road legal and all for only £20.

Will chuck some magnets on the back of the front one and all's good.

MC71:
A few Christmas presents for myself turned up this week.

Autotech FARB (Front Anti Roll Bar), I already have a Autotech RARB so when a new front one popped up I got it.
CTS Turbo Outlet (Discharge) Pipe and CTS Turbo Throttle Pipe from PSI Tuning, bought on Black Friday but only just turned up, still saved a few quid so thanks chaps!
Took a punt on a Unibrace UB style Chassis Brace (it's an exact copy -- rip off  :innocent:) so will see what Alex at AKS makes of this and see if it actually fits while I'm there next time.
Also bought the Superpro Rear Kit as there was a GB on. The whole car will be Poly bushed then.

Still need to sort out the Coilovers (to be more precise, which ones  :confused:), decide on trick top mounts and/or ball joints plus hoping Vibra Technics bring out their new Engine mounts and get Mr AKS to fit this lot and a few other bits plus new wheels the all's good. Will also go visit R-Tech for switchable maps, TC mapping etc etc.
