Nice new Wolf mirror.

why would you want them great things on there for?:rolleyes:
just asking to get it smashed off in a tight lane , or some dip**** lorry driver :D
 
you could cut the front out of it to allow it to slide over the rear of the truck cab a bit.

Oh, and fitted me foglights tonight, all ok. Just right for dazzling the moaning vauxhall drivers on t'other forum

It gives you great visibility and less blind spot. Plus it looks nice (I think).

It does fold back if you need to get through a narrow space. Or if it gets clonked by a lorry :D
 
...Although I'm usually comfy enough in the TD5, I've just ordered some seat risers from Mud Uk which should improve things for me (I'm 6'7" tall) ...

I've just fitted the Mud UK seat risers (a doddle to fit) and I'm VERY impressed with the difference it's made to my comfort! I still have ample headroom but now seem to have a lot more legroom. Highly recommended!

:)
 
Just fixed my rear tailgate handle. Bit of a job but got the method off this forum. Excellent. A job that could hane costed a bundle ended up costing me £3 for a pack of coach bolts.

Had to drill a hole in my motor which was a first.....:D
 
Fitted a pioneer stereo in my V8, and thanks to a post on here worked out how to get the rear door sub working with it (wish I hadn't, the rear door sub is pathetic haha).

About 50 quid for the whole thing, fairly easy if you can weld. Since it's a part that goes on pretty much every one it's readily available as a spare part.

Well done if you managed to get it undone from the top. Mine was rusted solid and nearly impossible to get off even from underneath (on axle stands). I broke two oil filter wrenches on it, including a chain wrench. Tried the pump pliers but you can't get any room to turn them because the prop shaft is in the way. Considered taking the prop shaft off, but eventually resorted to hammering a screwdriver through the filter and levering it round bit by bit using a breaker bar. Took about 3 hours in the end, and needless to say, there was more oil on me than in the Landy afterwards. :mad:

I found out afterwards the filter had been on there for at least 6 years and several successive mechanics had quietly skipped that part of the service when it came to changing it. No wonder the oil was as black as Satan's armpit.
