oh that hurt!

had my C for a week now, after some driving (LOVE that sound) and some cleaning it about time to start sorting/fixing the little bits:

 

.spoiler

.whippers

.stereo

.and my p/side fog has a stone hole in it and my d/side indicator is cracked, instead of just changing these i decided it would b best to swap all four lamps for new (so theyd all look the same eg new).

so i headed to gsf where after a 5min wait the bloke told me they didnt do them, which is ok because euro parts is just round the corner. so went there and asked them and after a quick look on the computer the guy said "are you sure you want all four lamps", i said yes then he told me it was nearly 180 notes :shocked!:!

i said id have to leave it for now and slid back out under the door :oops: .

 

is that really what im going to have to pay :?:

Get used to that feeling!

 

Interested to hear more about these whippers though - do they come as standard? ;)

.whippers

 

No wonder it hurt! :-P

 

Yea get used to that "goddamn that much?" "jesus this is annoying to fit" and " :mad: " feeling, but driving it will take it all away!

i meant wipers and you know it.......or did i :lol:

 

i knew it would be pricey, just wasnt ready to hear it was £180 for four lamps!

and swfblade, NickVR6, your wright about the noise, especially since i dont have a stereo at the mo! but once im driving my C all is forgiven!

Fog lenses are for sale in the 'For Sale' section of this forum, very cheap :)

 

Wipers, theres a number of ways to fix them, either get Lupo or Aero whipers as a straight replacement, or you can take a dremel to your existing ones if money is an issue (thats what I did 3 years ago and they work fine), you just need to know where/what to grind out.

 

I'd also recommend uprating the headlight loom if it hasn't been done, you'll find out why the first time you drive at night ;)

 

gratz on the new C :)
