Really!?! I mean I don't know the price of main dealer lights but even sticking to eBay prices, once you've made a prototype and 2nd, 3rd, 4th and eventually got it down to a T. Surely the bit would be worth it to mass produce so to speak. I'd say it more an issue of time and money to start...

Hi guys, Great news to hear some reporting is under way, and a collaborative between all the forums seems like a good idea too. Can we work towards a deterrent as well? Bare with me here... The plastic lamp guards. I've always been amazed by the price for what they are, but that's another...

Correct me of I'm wrong, but is there not a guy on eBay who sells a bar which sits vertically across the centre on the headlamp. I'm sure I read it somewhere in a similar post. Didn't pay too much attention as I have a pre face lift. Surely worth a search, if it doesn't help security surely...

Hey, I payed £1300 for my first car at 17 it was a 1.6 polo glx. I'm 23 now the polo didn't make the second mot but I've been driving as a named driver until last year when I bought my d2. A bit of talking to the insurance company and they honoured the no claims and I now pay £550. Saying...

Ah my bad I some how ended up thinking you were on about the third row. Gonna have a look tomorrow evening, I'll keep you up to date

Thanks for all the reply's Guys. I haven't had a chance to get out and look at the car as yet, but my free re-test limit is looming so I may well remove them to buy me a bit more time to figure it out. DIFFLOCK66, I had that problem with the 3rd row seats in mine a while back, The link...

Hi Guys, I put my D2 in for its MOT the other day, to my surprise there were only a few fails, but the main one being that the middle second row seats will lock to the floor but they wont lock back in the upright position. If you fold them out and click them down, give em a tug and sure...

Hi Guys and girls, Just a quick update in regards to the electrolysis experiment. This part was half in half out so a before and after if you may. It was in the bucket for around 24 hours. As you can see it just needs a very light brush to get the remaining dust off and jobs a gooden.

If only I had a bucket big enough :D Tow bar hanger in there atm it seems alright, lot of rust bubbling round on the surface of the bucket.

I forgot to mention, I am trying this process of removing rust through electrolysis mainly as just an experiment, but as has any one had any great success with this process?

quote=RichM;2593731] I fill small holes with body filler... (I should probably learn to weld) I did try hammerite but it seems very expensive, lasts 5 minutes and flakes off really easily. Ima going to put the hammerite on the tow bar just to cover up the red oxide. and im stuck with...

So today I decided to start to tackle the various amounts of rust in all the usual places and every where else around the disco. Before long I found myself removing the tow bar just to start off small. The main aim of this thread is to find out everyone's own individual way of dealing with...

Let us know how you get on and good luck, I have the same problem with the reverse lights on my disco td5.

Right Guys, I know its been a while since the last post, but I wanted to let you know I got it sorted. Just to recap the tailgate was stuck shut and it was nto the usual problem of the motor going and the levers behind the trim would not move to manualy unlock the door from the inside. So...

Thank you Sierrafery, I’m at work at the moment but I have coated the area in WD40, I will try the lock/unlocking as soon as I get out.

I know its early days but... Looks like i'm gonna end up paying through the nose for this one. The door is sealed shut round the latch on the lock end. Surely grinding the hinges horizontally on the other side wont help as the door will still be stuck on the lock side. how else can you get in?

It's looking like the actuators not pulling enough or jammed, its a "new" used part off fleebay. It did everything it needed to do whilst plugged in but loose out of the tailgate. Now its secured in the tailgate its not working. I have manually lifted the internal lock at the top of the door...

Hi all, Recently purchased a D2, tailgate wouldn't open so reading through posts decided to replace the actuator. Got the part, removed the old part, plugged in the new part first to check it was all OK and ran through a lock unlock cycle with the fob. All was good fitted the part checked...

Cheers, Thank you

haha cheers lol, I was gonna say at this point should this not be a topic if so where an how do i move it?
