    Rear parcel shelf query

    Noticed mine is identical to yours @JohnM Did you sort it in the end?

    You need to speak to Rich 😉

    Gear Indicator?

    I don't think you even need to be in accessory mode to do it, just press the bottom button until it cycles round

    Schroth Rallye 3 ASM harness

    That's the right place afaik, not fitted mine yet but that's where I plan on fitting it to. The only longer bolt you get is for the rear seat belt mount I think.
  5. Looking at getting a gauge for oil pressure / temperature, specifically http://www.spa-uk.co.uk/Product/Signature Series Gauge Oil pressureOil Temperature (SS-301) as it'll show both at the same time. What are the recommended take off points for the pressure / temperature sensors? I believe I'll probably need adaptors in some way so any details around fittings would be appreciated too

    Oil temp/pressure gauge

    Cool, think I know what you mean. Probably gives a stopper on the adaptor so the sensor doesn't go too far through One I'm looking at doesn't so sensor should just go through

    Oil temp/pressure gauge

    Is there a way to check before buying? Suppose I could just get the adaptor and gauge and go from there. Kinda confused how it can't screw through what is essentially a hole that it's meant to be screwed into!

    Oil temp/pressure gauge

    Won't fit as in it won't touch oil or the sensor won't screw in to the adaptor?

    Oil temp/pressure gauge

    Cheers Sam, from further research I'll probably go with a t piece + extension for the pressure (connect stock one + gauge sensor to it) - I found it's not good to connect the sensor direct to the engine as they can crack and the extension bit should make it neater. Temperature can go in the plug you mentioned for the pressure apparently so that should work fine, can you double check the thread/size for the adaptor?

    Release bearing

    Is it a squeaky sound while the pedal is moving? If so, it's probably just the fork that needs greasing, nothing needs replacing.

    Release bearing

    Before I got my clutch replaced, mine would rattle for a few seconds after putting the clutch down. Read a few reports of people ignoring it and it eventually going and taking the gearbox with it. I left it just over a year and then got the clutch replaced when funds allowed. Didn't get it done under warranty, didn't ask as I figured it's part of the clutch and so a wearable item and not under warranty, and more importantly, I had an aftermarket one fitted.
  12. @86guns surprised DL went anywhere near you with a modified car, that generally means a no go with them. I had a year with them and when cancelling the auto renewal they were more than happy to work on the price but as soon as I said I was planning on modifying it the renewal was cancelled within seconds. As for CK, they were fine with me when I was insured with them, could get mods added just by sending them a PM on here. Only downfall was with their actual provider who was funny over parts of the car being wrapped which pushed the premium up so it was higher than other brokers. I'm not the only one to have the issue with CK, well, it's not strictly CK, it's their deals with the insurers they use.

    Problem With Heat Wrap

    Had a look this morning, probably got about an inch gap on mine.

    Problem With Heat Wrap

    Mines quite close, closer than 2 inches, might check it tomorrow!

    Problem With Heat Wrap

    Upload a picture when you can. The clip holding the wrap on mine rusted itself apart so had the wrap come loose a bit until I replaced the clip

    Big brake kit time?

    I plan on getting the reyland kit at some point, seems fine.

    HTTPS?

    +1 With things like LetsEncrypt it should take less than half an hour to sort out and not have to worry about again with automatic renewals
  18. I just left mine going off, stopped after a bit as the battery completely died. Can't you just disconnect the battery?

    K&N Filter

    Is yours the face-lift? Apparently they have a slightly different sized airfilter. If you've got the one in the screenshot then it'll fit non face-lift cars afaik

    Deacons '86

    Stock ones and the ones I had on previously both juddered after putting g1 on, aero twins didn't which surprised me.

    I've just put aero twins on as well, with a fresh coating of gtechniq g1... seem fine, no smearing and a dry windscreen after wiping

    Did you have any issues with the airbox like Jeff did?

    What to do with frozen windows?

    I don't see the point defrosting our cars quickly. If its cold enough to freeze, everytime I've got in, it's misted up on the inside so I now deice it with the spray stuff (not the cans) while the car demists itself
  25. I'm sure I read on the US forum that the part number has never changed so was more likely to be a quality issue with a bad batch of them?
