Rite ive just got a few questions about styling for my nova. Cheers for answerin them fellas.
Do LED side repeaters just connect to the original wires and run on the same current or is messing bout wit resistors and all needed?
Wat are peoples experiences of Ecotek's? Are they worth it?
How do you remove the front headlights and indicators as I'm fitting new Ice blue bulbs?
How do you feed the wire from a beesting aerial down through the car to the head unit? My haynes manual told me but its a bit vague.
Anyone know of a good insurance broker who would insure my motor for cheap? Northern Ireland cover obviously.
Thanks alot
side repeaters just plug str8 in mate and u dont have to remove the headlight to change the bulb

^^ dont remove the headlights as you will end up breaking the clips, you can just pop the bulbs out from behide
i think for the bee sting u have have to take ur roof lining down and feed it down to the A pillar to ur head unit think the head lining is a twat to put back up tho
i think for the bee sting u have have to take ur roof lining down and feed it down to the A pillar to ur head unit think the head lining is a t**t to put back up tho
Thats the way for the bee sting, but as said, once the head lining is down it won't go back up like it was originally.
As for insurance i can't really recommend anyone as you are in N.Ireland, and i aren't
ecotech is probably not worth it, the rest of your plans sound good
i thought ud paid an absolute fortune for insurance in ireland

Cheers for the tips. Why is an ecotek not worth it? redline and max and all gave it a real good review. Few more questions:
Anyone know how to get an engine bay real clean? Without messin up the spark plugs due to the hose :x lol
Where can you buy hose spray for the hoses in the engine plus coloured ht leads?
Cheers again
You can get the hose spray from www.demon-tweeks.com
and to clean the engine you to cover the electrics(coil,plugs,dizzy,leads etc) make sure they are completely covered and sealed and then the engine has to be blasted with a power washer. That is the only way to get it clean again.
Personally i wouldn't bother, the coloured hoses look sound though.
halford do blue 8mm leads for ?35
or theres them race x which i have from motorworld there ?75 (which i didnt pay)
you could always get the engine bay steam cleaned at a good car cleaners.
i put m,y bee sting arial down the c pillar, that way i only un-did the back part of the roof lining.
as for some of the other questions, go to halfords or where ever.
i take it you dont get out much lol
