[Mike R]

very tidy

Cheers

Mate im having a total ball ache getting these fecking airbag lights off, im wanting to stick it in for MOT this week, as need to get to body shop and back before january

Iv got the reistors you put up from fleebay, i tried shoving them in and clear the fault but it keeps popping up, how did you manage. Which hole you put them in? Which colours of wires?

I just bent them in and away it went, altho i ripped one out 3 days later and on my light came, and its been on ever since, but they did go off... What im going to do now is cut the plugs off my old seats and just plug it in, as the resisitor is built in the plug so ive seen?..

Mine went through the M.O.T no problem with the light on.

 

[Mike R]

oooh, Car currently has no seats, All Calipers are all off, snapped a bleed nipple on the rear, and the other one some barsteward had cross thread it in so theyl both be getting re threaded...And all my engine bay bits still need sending off and painting... Looking very sad for its self sitting in the garage... On a brighter note, i shall have some goodies turn up in the next 2-3weeks.... Christmas will come early for me

 

[Mike R]

Something i should have done the first time...

And yes White stickers are on the way ... Now to try and fit them without wrecking them..

Yeh they certainly stand out when the in daylight

No mate, Cant be arsed messing about with all that, as long as the brakes work thatll do me, its never gonna need uprated things for what i use it for.

 

[drka-drka]

That's a smart move I really wish I hadn't bothered getting braided hoses total waste effort for the hassle

Can't wait see new wheels what ever they maybe

 

[Mike R]

Yeh im just not to fussed with it, think there a lot of money for a bit of hose.. Saying that i have just spent over 400quid on hoses for my engine bay

Yeh im really hoping i can pull them off, im yet to see these on a leon too.. 8.5 fronts and 9.5 rear, 215/35 tire all round

 

[drka-drka]

Oooo this is handy same size wheels as me, I was thinking about 215 at rears too as iv only got it at the front ATM. I want see this;-)

And how are u gonna be hitting the floor? Still static or a bag fag ;-)

 

[Mike R]

I have to find a buyer for mine first, just waiting to hear off a couple of lads..

Ill still be static.. thats why its gonna be harder to pull them off well.. Have to play around with spacers as they only come in 5x112 and 5x120..

 

[drka-drka]

That's what I'm needing to do too, but iv got 8 sets to play around with haha

Brakes look awsome behind the wheels, hope the new wheels are a dark colour to help show them off
