what have you done to your car today ?

[dgjdrummer]

I don't have a guide to what I did but it's fairly straight forward and I could write one at some point.
My fans wouldn't run at all on slow speed so I fitted the resistors and now they function fine on both speeds. Cost me around £25 all in for parts but you will also need a few basic tools for the job.

Ah right, yeah if you could mate that would be much appreciated Basic stuff like soldering iron? anything else I'll need to hand?

I've got a funny feeling mine might be doing this too, like the fans will turn on for about 5-10 seconds?

Yeah, they just blast for 10 or so seconds and then seem to go off, they seem to run ok in between though when I had a look last night

raised the ride height by about an inch to stop it scraping the floor with the under-trays!! Put the 17" starfish wheels on. Then spent 2 hours getting it to all sit level again!

SILICONED...Not a good idea,get the butyl and do it right,although when it does leak again(which it will) at least you'll have an led lit waterfall

 

[gdjohny]

I have done the other doors a year ago an no problems.
If you do it properly it wont leak :
1. Clean the loose dirt on the edge and around it
2. Wipe the area with acetone or simillar stuff
3. Apply silicone a bit thicker ( in my case cheap black bathroom sealant )
4. Smear the silicone where the panel meets the door skin to force it in all the places
Job done

 

[gdjohny]

You dont see the led at all but they light up the ground very nice

Was picking the other half up from work and felt a massive jolt through the car that felt like I had been rear ended

Turns out the bolt from what I think is the dog one mount has gone

If anyone knows what size bolt I need or how to fix it I'd greatly appreciate any ideas.
