Free Conzult reading in SW London!
First off...I'm a noob! So apologies for any dumb questions! I've seen 'Conzult' mentioned quite a few times...but what is it and what does it show??

Dashlight converison
I remember seeing a thread on here a while back with a tutorial on how to mod the dashlights - mine are the standard 'white' and I want to convert them to a dark red/crimson - but I don't seem to be able to find it! Can anyone help? I could also do with as much advice as poss as to where I can source the required tools/parts and any other info you think might be useful! In addition, is it possible to do the same to the switches on the doors? I hope that this will be my first of many mods!! Thanks all!

Electric windows
haha....it has actually happened when the window was down and I too had just parked up but a bit of banging and window tugging soon got it up! Hasn't been down since!! Think I need to get myself a solder kit and read up on the basics....I'm new to this didn't you know!

Electric windows
My driver's side window has stopped working!! It was quite tempremental before but over time has deteriorated and now has stopped working altogether! Which proves quite annoying when driving in and out of multi stories and round to the local drive-thru (I love my KFC!). Does anyone have a tutorial/tips for how to fix this? The passenger side could also do with looking at as it doesn't seem to close all the way properly and so seeps water when it rains... Thanks!

whats the best gauges
I've only got a GReddy boost gauge at the moment but quite like the look of the prosport range! They seem to be reasonably priced and accurate functionality.....so would be my choice in the near future....

Puka white Zed n Reading..
Cheers for the invite! What time is the meet? Got a 'thing' that evening but may be able to make it down after.... Also...any recommendations on local garages? I may be needing one sooner than I thought! Being the monkey that I am I dropped my allen key into the engine bay whilst trying to remove the plenum to check my hose clips! Spent an age trying to find it byu which time it got dark! Tried to 'drive' it out but not sure it worked! Spent over an hour walking the streets looking for the allen key...looking like an absolute loon to passers by! Cheers for the help!

fuel smell
Ok....I need some advice.... I too had the smell of petrol (on occassion) so followed the advice above and had a ganders at my hose clips. The ones on top seemed to be fine and there was no smell of petrol coming from their locality so I figured I'd check under the plenum. So...out came the allen key and having removed two screws, the third just wouldn't budge. Bit of elbow grease later and i finally got it off whilst all the while reciting to myself 'do not drop the allen key!'.....you guessed it....once the screw was out and my guard was lowered, being the monkey I am, I dropped the key!! So....how do I find it?? I took the leap of faith that it wouldn't cause my engine to blow and started up the old gal and even took her for a rather vigorous spin in the hope the key may dislodge itself and end up on the tarmac. However, a very careful search of said tarmac has not resulted in finding the allen key! I spent a good 40mins with a torch down the engine having a look around, but not being au fait with engines, I was searching blind. It just doesn't seem to be there! No rattle when the engine is running either! What do I do? Forget about it as there doesn't seem to be any further problems and hope that it may have fallen out during the drive? All and any ideas welcome! (apologies for the essay!)

Puka white Zed n Reading..
I've just pur-chased a rather tasty flame red 300 last sat....i did see a white zed drivin down the hill on basingstoke road whilst i was too busy checking out my fancy boost gauge while sitting in traffic up the hill! Nice to know there are others in the area.....
