Fitted a new 6 disc changer and added 2 resistors to the car for the fans. Just need to tap the wiring into the loom tomorrow.

From my RR:


Gave the car a once over with the snow foam, then washed and waxed it

Then went to halfords to get some rainX but the turtle wax stuff was £2 cheaper so I got that instead

Then I went to try out my car ramps and find out what is making the knocking noise but no luck

Dozer, get some ramp extenders so you can get your car on those ramps. I can get my cupra r on mine no issues.

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.

Over the weekend I fitted some new numberplate bulbs, and then took the LC for it's MOT...

Passed with flying colours :D
