I love it, can't do it myself but love to watch. I have been to the UK B-boy championships for the last 3 years in a row. My favourite is the second night, when they do the team battles. Great fun (as long as you're not as old as Angus LOL).

Goodbye Z Man, Shame we didn't get to meet seeing as you're so close. Maybe you could make it to one of the Herts & North London meets in your MR2? Best of luck with everything, Mike...

Me too, Black background please...

Yeah, I love it. I might set it as my screensaver LOL...

Yeah, that's not a bad idea. I was also thinking about going for the blacked out lights (like T-pot) just as a short term fix. I'm finding it hard to justify spending the best part of £300 on rear lights when I could buy an xbox 360 or a new clutch or a good camcorder. Decisions decisions...

We're not all that bad. LOL

Thanks Smithy for the info on import tax. I am already coming to the conclusion you have just made. Now I have to consider my priorities. I have MOT coming up next month and, I may need a new clutch soon, can I really justify spending the best part of £300 on cosmetic mods? I need a win on the scratch cards LOL.

My old black Zed had 99spec rears but with an old centre panel and it looked fine. I have been looking at prices in the USA because we have got a good exchange rate at the moment. I think I can get a set of rears for around $380 which should work out at about £210. This includes shipping but does not include any potential import tax! Does anybody know if I will have to pay import tax? how much is it likely to be? and is there any way to get round it? Thanks again, Mike...

Fas, you should speak to Stuart (street car champ) and John Dixon, Stuart will fit a wet kit for you, as he has offered for me before. And John should be able to sort you out with a switchable map so you can run one map for on the Nos and another for when you're not.

If you could check that would be great, Thanks Dan. Hmm, You learn something everyday. I thought these were supposed to go for about £230 inc VAT!

I thought this was Russ's car to start with. His looks quite similar doesn't it?

Ooooh! :wack: If I don't take the middle panel, what is the price for the left and right units? Can anybody do a better price than this?

Steve - seeing as there is a little competition for the 10-11 slot I am happy to go in the 11-12. I don't think I can edit my vote now though...

sounds like they are real muppets mate. I would take the car there and speak to the manager about it, then, I would go somewhere else to sort out the prop LOL

I thought gangsters drove around in big jeeps. and drug dealers normally use their mum's renault clio to avoid suspistion (sp).

Yes mine is a series 2. I think that plug could be to do with turning signals as my Zed had a running light setup, with the rear reflector thingys lit up etc. I am starting to think it is more likely to be a faulty earth rather than the indicator stalk. All I know for sure is that I am very confused...

Don't ask! :cry: it all went tits up on saturday. I got the units out no problem but I crakced one of the units when trying to open them up. :cry: Damn that tar is sticky stuff. I've got it everywhere. Danny - How much for a genuine set?

Fair point...

As the title suggests I am looking to buy a set of 99 spec rear lights. Where is the best place to go? Should I buy from a trader? If so, who is the cheapest? Has anyone bought them from the states? does it work out much cheaper? were there any problems with this route? I was trying to think of even more questions LOL but I think this is enough for a start...

Both the black and white background look good at night, I just think the white one looks a bit chavvy in the daytime. Also, do we really want KPH on the clock as well? Just my opinion...

LMAO at this thread. It's funny how the little things can turn into an argument! Poor 300-Mat

I am keen too, 1. Temp - standard 2. Speedo - 180mph (with boost cut out) 3. Boost -14/+14 4. Tachometer - 0 to 9 with 7-9 in red 5. Oil pressure - psi 6. Fuel - standard 7. Reverse indiglo BUT I really like the black background Is this going to cause a problem?

Thanks Dave, I think it might be for something like that but I have given up now. Booking into see my auto sparky later today. Let him worry about it and let me pay for it!!! Thanks to everyone for the suggestions...

I'm happy to start early Steve, I've got a few errands to run in the afternoon. Thanks, Mike...

The indicators are working fine now, just the main beam. I will be booking in to a garage soon unless someone has a magnificent idea. thank anyway, a dispondent Mike...
