I'm from Sheffield, haven't seen you driving around need to keep a look out.

I've got plans to remap mine.
Where you going for your remap, Statller?

If you mean can the side lights match the main lights then the answer is yes however the cost would be quite a bit due to the time it takes to make them however it can be done. Basically it would create a main beam projector style light and a dipped side light. Just imagine the reflector with a projector lens that glows when the side lights are on. This is actually one of my next proposed headlight mods!

so i was all sad only being able to fit the cat back although does sound nice and deep compared to the standard + middle box removed.


got home went to see what i could sell the downpipe section as was told was a decat and i really wanted sports cat in first place....

ran the code and bingo i actually have the high flow 200 cell sports cat version HAPPY DAYS!!!! now i just need to find a way of getting the top bolt off so i can get it fitted :)

Just after I'd spent loads of money on the car. Currently waiting for seat roadside assistance to come and recover it. Was thinking it would be only a new bumper but seems the bonnet and stuff underneath are damaged too :(

Some top knotch work there Rob!
So annoyed at myself for never having time to sort mine out :(
All I need to do is seal them up and I got all the tools ready lol.

How do you power them up? With a computer power supply?
Might try test mine before sealing up to be safe.

Don't want to sell lights which aren't aligned properly, although they should be bang on perfect :D

Cheers bud

Will, I forgot to respond to your email the other day, sorry! As for testing them, I use an old PC power supply as it has a very constant 12V supply and they are easy to get hold of.

As for alignment, the cutoff line will be horizontal and as for aligning them up once on the car the 'future owner' will just use the two white adjusters on the headlights which allow the light to go up/down and left/right. That way they can get the exact position without worrying! :D

Looking good Rob. [B)]
Are these completely water tight once sealed and not likely to get a build up of condensation?

How do you actually re-seal them?

That's good news then, I would like something like that.

And also can you get the black surrounds for the sidelights to match the middle so it's all black?

If you don't understand what I mean I'll post an image.

Yep, fully water tight!....I will be using butyl sealant which is what most headlights use as it is always semi flexible so heat doesn't cause it to split like normal silicone sealant.

That's good news then, I would like something like that.

I know what you mean....something like this but black.

You've got it! Exactly like that.. Would the change of cost be any different for something like that in black?

Cheers Rob

BTTC Aero Kit and ToyoSports stainless dual exit went on last week
AMD DPF delete yesterday
Trial fit of RS4 Rep's today (19x8 ET42), 235/35 Falken FK453



New disks/pads next (maybe in the short-term just clean up the current hubs).
Wheels will also get a better coat of paint/lacquer as the finish isn't quite up to my anal standards.
