Re: bloody snow again

you got lucky on the alloy too! when i went sidewards into a kerb last year, i broke the edge of rim so deep that i risked the tyre coming off, and sheared the spring at the same time! :(

Re: Things to do

1) Insure the car
2) Tax it
3) Fill it up
4) Give it a damn good clean
5) Replace glow-plugs
6) Acquire GLX 15" alloy to replace broken one

But most importantly, get a better paid job to pay for the above!!

must admit, that my radio was a bit of a bugger to get out 2. if i remember correctly, i got 1 side free, wedged a screwdriver in the gap, then worked the other side out. it did take me nearly an hour and a few scraped knuckles, but i got there in the end!

Re: Project All Smoke, No Poke :)

when you change the radio, use 2 nuts on each arm thingy. mine kept having a tendancy to work themselves loose, which was quite annoying!
