Quick q on removing the wheel to access the arch liner etc, is it relatively safe on a flat surface to use the spare wheel jack? As long as I don't go under the car (not that there is a need to) it 'should' be fine right Where is the best place to jack the car if doing one side at a time?

Mines the same, I have the aircon running everytime I use the Z. Always a little damp patch after I've parked up for a while

Something for me to check certainly. I had an issue in the summer where the battery drained so it could possible be that. I've ordered some bulbs online to test this first before I go into ballast and igniters etc but will get the charger out and top the battery up as another check Cheers @marzman

Cheers for the Info Alex, appreciated

Bar using the film as mentioned above, is using C4 the easiest way to get clear headlights for a 4-6 month period? May invest in a bottle if so

Received replacement Relays from @ZMANALEX this morning, tested them and the lights are still dead. Looks like it's off to the garage for the bumper off.

The bulbs seem to work, well at least they came on intermittently although today it's just side lights working. I've googled the location of the relays but don't have my tools so will need to wait until the weekend to take the battery out and try a different relay, if it's not that then it's likely to be bumper off and investigate the ballast and igniters Removing the bumper was something I really wanted to steer clear of

Small update Discussed with a mechanic pal, there is still power going to the units as when you go to flash the high beam you can hear the click from behind the headlights. He said it could potentially be a relay issue. Does anyone have any thoughts on this issue at all? Or failing that can someone point me in the direction of the relays that could be causing an issue? When it comes to car electrics i'm a complete novice. I've searched the forum but can't find any suitable feedback

Hi all 350 rev up 06. Head lights have suddenly stopped working, side lights fine but no main beam. Car was sat for a week while I was away. Started fine, battery volt gauge is normal. On first drive I noticed they would come On intermittently while driving in the dark which was a right nightmare for the 15 min drive home. This morning only one was on and now this evening both are out. Any thoughts?

Wow, state of that! Definitely vermin by the 'bits' in the white insulation. May be worth leaving the gaiter off for a few days and putting a trap in the car

Have a look at the video in the link above, pretty simple to do

Just plugging their YT video it seems

Cheers for the response, bar the stands I have nowt so I'll either ask for a price to install via Torqen or get a local garage to install Either way I'm excited

Howdy folks Looking into exhaust options and think I'm likely to press the button on an invidia Gemini system from Torqen. Running an 06 rev-up, no mods bar a pop charger. Are these systems easy to install? Could a novice do it after watching a few videos and reading instructions etc? I don't think I'll go HFC but I imagine many of you would you recommend an up-rev to go with it... I've browsed the topics and think the system as standard will give me the noise I want. Also after any other pieces of advice you may have.

Love the aggressive look on the target picture, could look even better with the mesh you mention also. Are you looking at adding wide arches as in the picture also? (at least I think they are there in the pic)

Give direct line a try also, try things like adding a parent, older sibling etc to the policy, you may find it reduces the quote You could always get a parent to insure it and have you as a named driver but then you don't get to build up your no claims. Just some things to try I remember paying around 1300 for a 1ltr h reg fiesta when I was 21 Edit* just realised the question was more on RWD experience

They look decent, may pick a pair up myself Was looking for sequential ones but could only find smoked

Aye, think Ian is based in Newport so just over the bridge. Not sure where you're based.

Some standard rays for sale here for £300 You could probably sell the current wheels 'unfurbished' for around 12-1500 on fleabay. The only set I see on there currently are white and around 3k. 'Could' make 1100 plus out of it

Don't laugh but I've found out my issue.... The tow hook was loose in the foam in the back under the boot It was knocking against the jack that was strapped in under there

Did you get to the bottom of that? Think I have the same issue

Did you own the black 350 in Skewen before the trav? If so, i was wondering where that had gone, GLWS

code is directly linked to airbag light. If you clear the light using the method above, run the OBD scan again, it probably wont show anymore, clear any codes before running another scan

Could try the following... Usually gets rid of it Turn your ignition off. Turn it back on (Dont start the car). Wait until the air bag light starts flashing then immediately turn the ignition off. Repeat 4 times. On the 5th time, start the car. Should stop flashing. Won't usually return for a while but if it does, repeat the above steps.
