I am very impressed with osram silverstars, just had a kur2y loom fitted with these bulbs and it's no longer "feel the force young walker" :lol: Nobody ever talks about the H3 fog and H3 spot bulbs, Osram all season - philips blue vision - philips premium Which ones do you all like ?

These look absolutely horrible. Rather wear a bra myself ! .....I'm free ! ......... :rofl:

I bought some of this from the stealers today (lemon fresh windscreen clear!!!!!) They say it's ok to use in the rado but I overheard someone say a while back that it clogs the jets up. On the back of the bottle however, it says for all models but further down it says for fan jets only. Does any one know if it's ok to use or use it themselves? cheers chris

My G60 does too. Not all the time though.

Congrats selbekk..... Just drive it steady for a while pal.

Implying ? A simple answer to a simple question was all i was looking for. Thank you chris.
-
Hi Ronan, The original question was which aero blade goes on which side ? As there are two different part numbers ? Any ideas ?
-
If it was obvious to me VR6 i would not be asking the question !.. Please do not be so condesending, thank you. Anybody with anything helpfull i would appreciate. Sorry andi if this is not in the spirit of the forum but i dislike that kind of reply. Cheers chris.

Fitted mine today...Brilliant 10/10.....Didn't realise until i had put them both on that the blades are different part numbers. Does anyone know which one goes on which side & whats the difference in them to look at ? Cheers Chris.

Yes joebloggsvr69....But the connection is different so you have to channel the new wiring through the roof down the windscreen edge and into the passenger footwell. Can't be doing with that. Not for the sake of one folding sheet. :thumb right:

kerrinmay - Get a GTi card, officially 20 % off at $tealers no matter what mood he/she is in.....Just say hav it !...worth the 20 something quid to make yourself a member in the long run easily... :thumb right:

I had some fitted on my G60 about 4 months back (FKAK07) Firm ride but nice enough as long as you don't lower them too much. I'm happy with them..... Buy some new top mounts for what they cost if your's have a few years on them (not even folding money from gsf)

The new aerial (complete unit) is brilliant, worth every single penny. Not once thought "jesus i ant paid that much !". Nothing more annoying than bad radio reception. Every single station is crystal clear even MW, and you don't often get that in the car. Rather listen to them cheeseeaters west life than crap radio reception, and thats pushing it :lol: .......The 17mm nut and 22 mm nut both fit new or old aerial base, so you can put the old 17mm nut back on if you want, the new one is just a wider nut with the same thread size. Topbanana :thumb right:

I got a new aerial from the $tealers yesterday £71.44 inc vat. Got it for £62.15 with 13% club discount. Part number 871 035 503. Simple job to do, took about 20 mins.........(Sit in one of the back seats to do all this job) just take the thick black/grey trim off at the back of the headlining, 10 clips in rows of 2. I found it best to start at the ends and take the middle ones out last, then pop the headlining out of the two slots. TIP- don't use a screwdriver or such like instrument as it marks very easy- flip it out with a wallpaper scraper !. The lining bows down to get at the 17mm nut easy enough. Pull apart the power amp clip (thin one) and unscrew the aerial wire (thick one) which are both only 4 inches away from the base, then fit new aerial (you will need someone to hold the new one in place on the roof while you tighten the nut) which is a 22mm nut on the new aerial !. clip headlining back in the two slots, pop trim back on and the jobs sorted. WOW Brilliant reception, i can pick up fm stations my 206 and yaris can't !!. Spot on AM/LW too (Spot on Radio Five for the footie at last ! ) Worth the money ........ Hope this helps.

I'm been told by plenty of people that JBS auto designs in chesterfield are the daddies in remapping too. Anybody else know of them ?

Resrayed the G60 badge today..Very happy with it...Took about half hour to mask up then some tornado red and as good as new. God I'm getting sad in my old age :thumb right: :lol: .

I'm selling my private plate soon B4 JSP.....If anyone has those initials pipe up so i don't sell it to anyone else....Getting one thats more personal to me. I like private plates, takes the age away. I should say 30% of people don't even know what a corrado is so it could be a new car to them if it's in good fettle.

Old tyres off new ones on, valves and balanced will be £30-40.. try and do a deal for the ones that are already on. Some places won't fit tyres that have been purchased from elsewhere as i found out .....best to ring round....cheapest i got was £28 all four...most expensive £42.
