  1. if you have trouble pulling wires thru, you can just about access the back of it if you take the glove box out, thats a easy job to do though
  2. welcome to the forum to :D
  3. if its a bmw one id presume its going to fairly easy aftermarket ones ive heard can be a nightmare, you have to move the heater settings to. i had enough trouble with my single din flip out dvd player, surprisingly there isnt much room behind the 3 series dash

    welcome to the forum first thing id ask is have you had a diagnostic check on it, im guessing you have seeing as you no what cylinders it is. also have you chaged the spark plugs?
  11. if you can get all the wiring for handsfree ones you can easily get a few quid for them, fella i use to work with in a car supermarket took them out on the sly and sold them on there, made a fortune.
  12. good stuff gav get that phone cradle on ebay, they sell easily
  13. neil are you from liverpool?
  14. cosford has the museum to doesnt it? not to fare from my dads to, hes got a X5 so will fit in lol
  15. my first car (not one in picture) was my mums 5 door corsa 'b' in a rather nice blue/purple color i added some corsa 'c' sxi 15" alloys, was the business at 17 lol then part exed that for a brand spanking new 03 clio dynamique billaong bad pic but you get the idea, lowered 30/40mm with 17s, had a K-TEC racing exhaust with AHEM!! green neons for a while (fast and furios had just came out) not bad for a 18 year old ;-) then part exed that for the megane 2003 model on a 52 plate, 1.4 16valve, i ended up making this in to a 230 sport replica both bumpers, facelift front end with facelift lights, proper sport exhaust modified to fit, lowered 30mm all round, 18" alloys also did the full interior. was a cracking car until it started breaking every week, after having my brain tumor removed and finding i cant drive for 12 months i sold it, took 3 days to sell!!! now bear in mind ive just sold the megane and cant drive for by now around 10 months, 3 days after selling the megane, i bought the bmw!! not really driven this car much (a big car park down by the docks) but it feels so solid, i insured a friend on it for a week to check for any probs and all is looking good, still got 6 months til i can drive it but just gives me time to do it up a bit ;-)

  18. cheers, after a few days shes still starting no problems. just a shame i cant drive it :-(
  19. andy-mcq replied to Luke's topic in Wanted
    as above, but i wouldnt recommend doing yourself unless you have experience before. you have to clamp the springs down to stop them flying off when taking the top part off the strut. when they come off believe me they certainly fly off!!
