H1 130W bulbs
if that fails why not fit a hid harness it that just adds a new live feed and a relay so your dip beams work off direct battery power (yes thats what those fet relays by the under bonnet fuse box are on some j spec models)

AH3 Clear coat
sounds like a specialist clear coat look on ebay there are several places that do custom paint including pearls/candy colours etc maybe worth contacting one of them to see if they can do what you need

AH3 Clear coat
right here goes clear coat is called laquer it's all the same stuff but a few things you need to note you can buy clear coat from halfords or where ever in aersol cans these are however 1k clear coat (or cellulose laquer) this will look great when you apply it but after 12 months and it's been in the sun it will start to craze or have like a white bubbly feel to it so do not use that stuff what you need which is the same as already on the car is 2k laquer which you can buy on ebay look for the type that has a pouch of hardner in the can which you depress a button on the bottom of the can to release it this is the best stuff to use but you must use what you need within 12 hours after that its sets hard as a rock, also using 2k laquer make sure you have sufficient breathing equipment as the fumes are poisonous, the stuff i used also reccomended spraying it in at least 23 degrees outside temperarture, you can use it out side which would mean you would not need to much breathing equipment just dont get downwind from the fumes

Bye Bye coolant
well it could be any of the 3 turbo coolant hoses or the heater matrix pipes but here is a tip if you have one hose gone, replace the turbo coolant pipes (water bypass) in silicone and also the heater matrix pipes because if it's anything like my zed when i bought it as soon as i replaced 1 pipe another would go, i ended up replacing every coolant pipe

heated seats install help
sounds to me like either the switched 12v supply you are using is not 'live' when ignition on or maybe relay wired incorrectly
-
heated seats install help
i would say at a guess the 'or' live is a ignition live and the 'rt' is a permanant live so if connected like that the relay should click when you turn on the ignition you would then need to test you have power coming out with a multi-meter

Engine bay fans.
how could it spin faster than engine rpm? the idea of a vicose fan is it works by the engine temperature the hotter the shaft from the water pump gets the tighter the clutch grips the shaft thus bringing the fan into use once it's cooled it down enough then the fan releases then runs either slower or not at all till temp rises so it is possible that at higher revs the fan has done it's cooling then backed off but if the temperature rose back up it would cut back in
