  1. You dont.... :lol:

     

    Hope he bought you the facia panel and loom to go from the bose to whatever you have been bought, else your shiny new toy might as well remain in the box :scare::lol:

     

    How do i know which ones to buy and where can i get these from?

  2. Burton on Trent!

     

    Old one is bose, new ones a JVC if that helps and its all pretty and shiney.

     

    I used to swap stereos all the time in my other cars but that was just a case of buying the keys, taking the old one out, then plugging the new one in! What has changed? Why is everything so complicated? or is it a sign that i am getting old :blush:

  3. Hi,

     

    I have tried searching but couldn't find what i was looking for. I may have not typed in the right search criteria!

     

    My lovely husband bought me a gorgeous new stereo for my 350z and i cant wait to get it in. Its a double deep one so should just fit straight in but how do i get the old bugger out without taking out the whole dash board as i have seen on other sites? Surely there is a simpler way?!?!?

     

    Please help i want to play with my new shiny shiny toy :lol:

  4. OK so i have heard a lot of you guys talking about spacers!

     

    I have assumed that you are on about a small disc that sits between the axel hub and the actual wheel to make them stick out a bit more! Please can someone confirm if this is correct :lol: I am a girl after all!

     

    Also how much is it for a set and whats the best size? i have heard 20/25mm!?!?!

     

    I have an 05 roadster with Rays if that helps/hinders!

  5. its five years old so I think prolly not worth repairing

     

    I would try writing to Smeg with a very nice letter saying that you bought Smeg knowing that it was a very stylish and high quality product that you knew would last a long time. However, you are dissappointed that five years down the line it has stopped working and that 2 engineers have been unable to diagnose the problem. You would very much like to buy Smeg in future but that you are now concerned that this sort of thing could happen again.

     

    You never know they might send you some vouchers or come out to fix it themselves. Had this in the past and they would rather keep their good name and have you buy again than send you away disgruntled! Worth a stamp at any rate :D

  6. going to keep watching this thread. i'm in burton and need my GM front bumper resprayed!

     

    ETA: do you guys know roughly how much this will cost?

     

    I'll ask the guy who's doing mine next week and put some picks up when it's done so you can see the job he's done.

     

    That would be great thanks!

  7. Got my car detailed by Biggy yesterday and he did an amazing job. My car was absolutely filthy! It was covered in tree sap, tar and just plain muck. I only picked it up last Saturday and it was in desperate need of a very good clean! Here are the before and after pics

    Thank you so much Biggy! My car looks amazing and I have turned plenty of heads :teeth:

  8. I have the standard bridgestone potenza 040s on the front and 050s on the back but was thinking of replacing them all. don't need it yet but its a new car :lol:

     

    Any suggestions for a zed roadster that's used everyday for work and on minor back roads with lots of twists, turns and fantastic straights? Budget of about £500 ish for all four!

     

    Cheers

    Falken 452s or Vredesteins

     

    If you budget is £500 ish the Falkens I am getting are £472 including filling with Nitrogen and balancing/alignment compared to £712 for the RE050's.

     

    Where are you getting these from?
