EL lighting ideas.
Mine is a series of leds on a mirrored acrylic board then mounted onto the top of the inside of the bumper with clear acrylic so it will be a permanent fitting, with total light coverage of the plate. Will get some pics up once ive completed it.

EL lighting ideas.
The number plate wont light up with an EL strip, it wont be bright enough, im in the process of making a white led strip for the number plate, which will light it up evenly. The Z on the door sail plate will be nice lit up, but i dont think the Z is cut out, so you would have to address that one. EL strips are more accent lighting for face on visual effect although some one has done some footwell lights in EL.

speedo question
Ah, yes, then a good convertor will do the job, in fairness too, it depends how some people wire theirs in, some use the screws on the rear of the speedo, some solder to the track. Where its wired in may play a part in the signal reliability imo.

speedo question
MJP or Luke at the zcentre. They are more expensive, but there have been issues with some of the ebay cheapies, not all just some, but if your unlucky to have a slightly dodgy one, then it could be wise to get a well known guaranteed convertor. For the price though, i would pay a bit extra and purchase some UK clocks.

You might have had a dodgy ebay convertor on there, some of them had problems creating results like you are experiencing.

Whats your biggest win on the lottery?
Not me, but my ex quite a few years ago had 5 numbers with a few work colleagues, they should have had a few grand each, but unfortunately it was the week where every man and his dog had the right numbers and they got a few hundred each. The lottery is as frustrating as ebay auctions.

Non turbo running fault fun tech thread
Not a clear pic to be honest, but i would say no bolts holding down the pass side of the balance bar causing an air/vac leak, no fuel filter, cant quite see the fpr, might be the pic but it doesnt look right. Cas, somthing looks awry at the tps plug.

occasionally lose a cylinder
Yes mate, also check your PTU plugs, occasionally they can cause misfiring, although you seem to have pin pointed it to the injector plugs. They all do share the same earth and are constant live, if you want the colours and diagrams at the ecu, let me know. Cheers Graham

occasionally lose a cylinder
As you look at the engine from the front of the car, cyl 1 is front left 2 front right 3 4 5 criss cross to 6 rear right under the balance bar.

Legal issue, my friend knocked someone off a bike, where does he stand?
I think if the company is aware of the incident, then they can be prepared for it, if they feel the need to contact police then its down to them. After speaking to the guy in your car, do you feel that he may take things further, how was it left?

Depends if the man is taking any further action. First of all legally, you should have reported the incident to the Police, the mate should report the incident to his work so you have covered yourself in the event of future proceedings, the guy might see a nice little earner in it for himself if he thinks he is suing a company. Log times, how the incident happened and all the relevant info, so that you are armed.

im not greedy
Although the thought of winning something big would be nice, i seriously wouldnt know what to do with £154million. I think its outrageous that possibly one individual might win it, they should make 154 people millionaires, much better for the economy.

fog light ducts and sidelights?
Really easy to fit, using a bit of sikaflex or similar silicone based adhesive, might need a little sanding on the sides here and there. You can have sidelights in your indicator housing, if the hole isnt there, you can drill one to fit and re route you sidelight feed.
