  1. No it wont. The original wiring goes all over the place round the car which means there's a voltage drop. ALl the loom does it "short cut" the wiring, making it more direct from the battery thus a lower voltage drop. This doesnt strain the bulbs. Though for the sake of a tenner for 2 x Osram night breakers off ebay, id replace them at the same time.
  2. i agree Kev. Thats why i had a Rover Metro when i first passed my test :lol: It was more the "got your taste for modifying cars from an Allegro" comment
  3. Couldnt have anything to do with those universal spacers could it? I had a tyre rubbing on a spring before and you could easily smell it AND it had a distinctive spring profile shape in it. SUrely if the wheel/tyre clears the suspension, it clears the suspension, unless something is loose or a severely worn bush is allowing movement.
  4. Looks ok to me. I think it'd look better (in regards to the police) if it was lowered. I think the arch gap makes the wheels APPEAR to stick out further than they are. As above the tread is under the arch, and you are allowed 30mm sticking out. VOSA (i suspect) will just say what ive said, 30mm max and tread must be under the arch.
  5. Is the tread of the tyre sticking out beyond the arch? Are the wheels more than 30mm outside the arch? Pics?
  6. hehe, you're ready for the looney house. Glad its all safe.
  7. Even new pads can squeak, just need to ensure you use plenty of copper grease.
  8. DIdnt notice any power difference on mine but the BMC certainly sharpened the throttle response and pick up... then there's the noise!!!!!!!
  9. Peanut butter (smooth) for the trim :) Or Mer trim treatment is good stuff.
  10. Not been sent the wrong springs have you?
  11. Theres a reserve though, which could be £1000 for all we know. :-/
  12. Good luck in the future mate, sure the Evo will take your mind off the Corrado. :)
  13. Best to stick your head underneath mate and have a look. Is it the suitcase box that youre on about removing? you can remove sections, but it will affect the noise.
  14. £140 from VW.. i bought one recently for about £56 inc VAT!
  15. Had this on my FS thread mate.
