clear side indicators instead of the ugly orange ones...where do i get them from and how much?

How do I get this broken screw out? The head snapped off wasn't even tight at the time. Tried grabbing it with mole grips and twisting but they just slip off. Tried twisting from the inside using those thin plier things and that don't work either. I'm sure it should just come out easy no idea why its so stuck. Cheers, Al

Well seeing as nobody else has put it up I thought I would :cry: Must be a good day to be born on Spongy, Mark W, and me.

Bantam may find this funny as he knows what I've been doing today... Anyway I went out for a drive and the car was really jerky on the throttle and everytime I had to stop at the lights or at a roundabout the idle was really lumpy and felt like it would stall. Got home and let it idle and although it didn't stall is was realy really up down up down lumpy. Turned off the ignition, tried to start it up again and it wouldn't start. Any ideas? I earlier removed the negative terminal on the car and replaced it with a new one. Could all these problems be caused by a dodgy connection of the negative terminal clamp thing to the wire? Cheers, Al
