    They will be knocked out in a Chinese factory and sold on to resellers who brand them up with logos etc. Should make customising the boot screen easy at least

    I got mine for £75 but see they are £89 on Amazon now. They may be cheaper elsewhere: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B012CMUYXQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_udp_awd_jobGwbPBX4S7G

    Thanks mate, haven't installed it yet only powered it on. This model gets really good reviews too. Comes with GPS and some other gizmos I won't use. Will post up my thoughts when I have installed it Edit, someone else's video review

    Winter Tyres

    Have never owned winter tyres. I use summer year round and just drive to the conditions. If it's too bad to drive the 35 miles to work I don't bother.

    Headlight adjustment for lowered cars

    Yeah my car is stock height. The dipped lights on the CRV are as bright as my main beams. When the full beam is on the CRV it is like daylight, epic brightness and coverage. And it auto dips when it senses other road users

    Headlight adjustment for lowered cars

    Is there a way to make them physically brighter. We also have a new CRV and the lights on that are sooo much better than on the 86

    Diff Oil Change

    Thanks Lauren My car was serviced on purchase at 15k so don't think diff oil was done, and it's too early for its next service, but I'm now at 20k
