Pushing your luck these last couple days Mr Gordon. Just remember how awesome I am! Prezzie can be kept to myself

 

[drka-drka]

[KatCowie]

You have to get it from me first! But Kat would very much like her thing

 

[MATTCR]

arrrrrgh! where did you get that wheel from looking for one too

 

[KatCowie]

Hey I found it on eBay, it was hiding in Spain! Keep an eye out for Breaking LCRs on eBay, they sometimes pop up quite often.

Well done to your bro Kat,looks sweet! Also nice news it passed MOT Mine was last week,and also passed

 

[KatCowie]

Thanks sweetie It's nothing to him, he's an Audi Techie so he has done hundreds of steering wheel swaps. I'm so lucky to have him

Aww good times Don't we have awesome cars lol

 

[sambryant]

Wow top work kat, hats off to your bro, the steering wheel can be a pita to remove. Also the new one looks great. Can i ask what stuff do you use to was your car?

 

[KatCowie]

Yeah it took him a few mins to get the prongs undone, as Audi use clips. He's done a few Skodas and they are prongs too, so he knew what he was doing. Aww thanks Sam, yes I'm really chuffed with it, even if it did take weeks to paint the stitching! Lol!
I use Meguiars Hyper Wash for the Foam Lance pre wash, then Blackfire Gloss Enhancing Shampoo and Conditioner.

 

[KatCowie]

Hardly worth posting really, but was a bit bored so thought I would do it anyway.

My lovely friend bought me these Thanks Paul

Even Foxy likes to look after herself, treated to Vaseline, with Cocoa Butter!!

Before

After

Hardly really worth mentioning but I really like them.

I'm glad you posted those pics, I'm so close to ordering a set for mine!

I'm just concerned they might one day get stuck on... I assume that's why you've applied vaseline?

 

[KatCowie]

Aw, well Im glad somebody finds my posts useful Thanks.

Yes. Just apply Vaseline to the threads and you will be fine, a handy tip! Also, now and then, just unscrew them and screw back on. This will prevent them sticking. They only really stick when people just put them on, then leave for a year without touching them.

 

[Blanco92]

Ah right, it's just now and again I hear horrors of them getting stuck on. I usually take my valve caps off every few weeks to check tyre pressures, so I guess that should be okay then.

I've got an eBay voucher for about a fiver so they won't cost me anything if I buy them

 

[KatCowie]

Well, get them bought then! They are only a tiny change, but look far better IMO.

 

[tyrer]

I remember my tyre company using a blow torch on my last ones to get them off... Hopefully these won't if you keep them vaselined each wash.

Kat love the car, would of been nice photo'd in the mag, yellow one is nice but you are very meticulous
