    Finally found an android tablet (Asus T101) that I had forgotten about. Today's task is getting it to run again and looking at installing Torque, and possibly a custom mount Fitted the front chrome indicators today also. Attempted to fit the LED number plate bulbs but they are too long to safely fit _____________________________________ www.im-tuned.uk

    It's right in the line of sight unfortunately and 2.5cm across so is too big to repair (legally). At least I get a new screen _____________________________________ www.im-tuned.uk

    Next up was sorting the interior lighting. The standard festoon bulb was as useful as a candle, so I replaced with a 16 SMD LED bulb. It now feels like day time when the light comes on, I reckon these could almost give you a Tan The light is white in the real world, not blue as the camera shows! I also have a big problem with orange indicator bulbs so have bought the obligatory Chrome bulbs ready for fitment. I also have some LED wedge bulbs salvaged from a previous car ready for the number plate lights. Hope to fit these over the next few days. My long term plan is to switch out for smoked Valenti or Buddy club lights. Here are the rears fitted: I haven't purchased the wing indicator chrome bulbs yet.. they will be next up: Mods List: Fit Private Plate - DONE Debadge - DONE Chrome Indicators - DONE Noise Generator Tweak - DONE LED Number plate lights Chrome side indicators Caliper tidy up/paint Drop In Filter - DONE 2nd Decat - Purchased Arm Rest Valenti Lights Rear visor type spoiler Remap (ecutek or tablet?)

    GT86 Alarm Unit Programming Codes

    Does your alarm beep when you open your doors (two short beeps)? Try the code: *17856 wait for the beep *003*0# This turns off auto alarm arming after door close This is the opposite of: *17856 wait for the beep *003*1# Which turns that feature on. Make sure your ignition is off and you need to be pretty quick with the key presses It may have been setup incorrectly on installation, this feature should be off by default _____________________________________ www.im-tuned.uk

    Less than happy. I'm getting my car back without work started. I had taken to the closest dealer from the group. The dealer who actually sold me the car is refusing to pay and wants to see the car first, so they want to pick the car up and decide how to resolve this. I have had to organise working from home and swap cars etc for nothing. _____________________________________ www.im-tuned.uk

    Cool. I wondered if you worked at Status Error as that is up your way I think. Your place looks brilliant! _____________________________________ www.im-tuned.uk

    They have agreed a respray is required. I'm now rocking a brand new Suzuki swift for the next 3 days. It is literally the polar opposite to the GT86 _____________________________________ www.im-tuned.uk

    They won't know what's hit them. My best mate is a paint sprayer by trade and I have helped him spray many a car #wellinformed _____________________________________ www.im-tuned.uk

    Off to Subaru this morning. I'm demanding a bumper respray.. So fingers crossed. It seems they used a chipsaway type guy last time who has done more harm than good. _____________________________________ www.im-tuned.uk

    Me neither. There are a few areas where the plastic is a bit poor, like the steering column. The knee pads are leather effect rather than leather. Other than that it's brilliant _____________________________________ www.im-tuned.uk

    Need that! The module in the Ediface above is probably similar as in my G as i also have solar power and atomic control. Mine has LED self adjusting tough movement to realign the hands after a drop _____________________________________ www.im-tuned.uk
