  1. got a cap from halfords, was 3.50. not bad
  2. guess you are gonna need it if you sanded the whole light, but you dont need it, can help it look better of course
  3. you could have a bad reaction with the tint, normally you dont as gradeA says.. i did mine and had no problems
  4. yeah whats good in the wet/summer is no good in the snow! scary stuff. Would be interesting to get a raddo with snow rubber all round and see how it goes, any one wanna take the challange? :lol:
  5. i have slightly mangled on side of one tyre, its not as bad a it could have been just a line of rubber removed, managed to eat through the snow and hit tarmac...grrr... @ conleycrew3: I used to have a 220ce like yours mate, wasn’t so bad in the snow if you took it real (real) easy! i used to put 195/65 non directional for the winter and put in into econo/snow mode. I have to say that the abs is fairly useless on all mercs even my mums 220 turbo (its 2003/4 i think), but it does have really good traction control. It does however kick in a fair bit which i think i should. Im gonna try uprated pads on my dads 320 so ill let you know how that works out.
  6. Yeah my old golf syncro was class in the snow, couldn't stop all that quick however should have said except PhatVR6 the 4wheel drive man :lol:
  7. I spent 30mins trying to get out of my back lane this morning! and a similar time trying to get parked the night before. I didn’t even dear try and get the car in my yard as its down hill! Goodyear eagle F1's are truly the worst rubber for snow! I had toyos all rounds on my syncro last year but I’m guessing the 4 wheel drive helped out a fair bit! :lol: How are you guys doing with the snow?
  8. you can get new gaskets to seal it up again.
  9. sure is mate :-) we had a nice summer (for a few days :lol:) yours look nice Phil, what shock/spings :-)
  10. the 1.8 8v must be like 9.5 ish? would be interested to know. edit: opps i mean 2l 8v..... :oops: cheers mr wales
  11. thats looking good mate, thanks for the help!! I'm thinking very hard about lowering it now....
  12. g60 greeney could you raise the back end a bit? bix thats spot on for 40mm :-)
  13. Thats class guys! you are right it does look better, but I am still worried about ride quality. And sorry about screen size, just thought higher res the better. :-) :-)
  14. Hi guys, Could someone please chop me about 40mm lower? Much appreciated!!!
  15. heres mine, well its under there somewhere!
  16. the silver foil is just for protection as far as i know.
  17. where did you get it from mate, i think i could do with one.
  18. im sure you will be let off ;-) :lol: i think that forum drunkness should be encouraged!
  19. i had oe and didnt really get a jump much, guess you should look at the other mounts. my rear one was/is not much cop and it still showed with solid front.
  20. at least one basicaly... pretty sure that most rados have 1. the hole on the other light is covered on my car. edit: doesnt matter which side by law etc...possible that german lights dont even have them as my hella lights for a mk2 golf came from germany with both holes covered.
  21. im always a bit tempted.... used to drive a celica (1996) 1.8 and it was very fun indeed, maybe even fater than the rado? if i ever found a good one i would have one again - well maybe later in life as a run around ;-)
  22. did you poly the front cross member? guess it could be transmitting more through the frame with the solid mount (but i dont remember mine doing it). is it jumpy on pul away? my brothers car was like this and a cluch bleed solved it.
  23. and room for your kids?? not sure that the C is any bigger than the honda, i would check out the lack of rear seats beforeyou make any decisions. If you are tall then your seat will likely be very close to the seat behind. i would have both cars if i could :-)
  24. its liklely the file size, so resizeing the pic will lower that. i use photoshop but i think you can probs use paint. click on image/strech/skew. and select something like 50% then save and re try to post
