cheers guys :D shift point now set to 5900rpm,and its not annoying as the first light dosn't come on until around 5k...can adjust them individually anyway so its all good. neil. -
shocks/rubbers should be ok,they are fk konigs that haven't done too many miles. no tool kit or spare wheel (which i needed the other week :lol: ) and the parcel shelf is good... having been through the receipts/history,i cant find any reference to bush replacement,wondering if they are completely none existent on one side? :shock: thanks for the help m8,ill double check the system/shocks etc :D neil.
-

cheers m8. :) i did check the system on some ramps a good while ago,thought it may be that with being left side only,but couldn't get it to bang... will check it again anyway i think. let us know how yours drives after a good boot full 8) neil.

Cheers darren :D i never ever want to do it again! :shock: :lol: -
This has taken me feckin ages to do! :shock: and many times through doin it i wondered if it was worth it or not... anyway,ill let the pics/vids :D do the talking! My dials that have already been played with,complete with pointless blanked off led spaces. First two are plugged,blue circled are moulded shut... The led's were cast in a solid lump of plastic, took me over 24 hours! to cut them out with a craft knife! :shock: i nearly went mad! Adjustable :D and hidden under gear lever gaitor... Finished! And vids :D Neil.
