Rufio · 27-08-2008, 07:32 AM

**Vegas** · 27-08-2008, 04:49 PM

i had interior lighting if you mean diff colour bulbs etc

Rufio · 27-08-2008, 07:10 PM

yeah nice one, i meant maybe all in blue or something. just something little that will make a nice touch at night.

**Vegas** · 28-08-2008, 05:18 PM

I need help, today my ceentral locking decided to **** up, basically meaning, i cant lock my car at all.

It can lock when the cr door is patrially closed, but not when door is fully closed or open?

Makes me think could possibly be problem with the actual locking pin?

Bought new locking pin (old ones was ****ed) works better now, although its not right, as problem is with the locking mechanism on the back of the handle (its snapped) anyone have a spare?

I am after new exhaust, i want it to improve performance and sound/ look good

what exactly do i need?

is it just a case of buying a "backbox" ? i have no idea on this

thanks

Brad · 04-09-2008, 01:24 PM

on performance you want to get a de cat pipe like a straight through but try keep your middle box just get rid of the catalic converter! and any back box you think suits!

**Vegas** · 04-09-2008, 02:48 PM

whats a de-cat pipe, and where could i find one? i seen few backboxes i like on essex racing, but i don't want one thats going to sound like a cat being strangled want a gentle purring sound, which is kind of bassy?

I dont want one that makes everyone turn around when im going 20mph

Brad · 04-09-2008, 02:50 PM

de cat is removing the catalic converter its further up the ehaust pipe nearer the front it keeps boris johnson happy.
