For a saloon what about a Phaeton?Might be hard to come by in petrol form though.

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Re: Map light bulb question
« on: 11 February 2017, 17:58:30 »
All it says in Haynes[admittedly for pfl/mfl cars]for the puddle lights is to carefully lever the lens from the door card.Can't see fl cars being any different to this but I've never done it so don't know for sure.Again the interior lights[same book]is prise out light unit-with doors shut and lights turned off-and map lights should pull out,with main light being a festoon type.

Out with the dog this afternoon and what should come driving past but a "C" reg Metro!This one was in silver and looked to be something of a minter[couldn't see any obvious rot]from the fairly brief look that I got of it.I can't recall the last time I saw a Metro on the road!

But Tilbo didn't you know that doing away with a proper spare wheel-or any spare wheel at all-is saving the planet and stopping us all dying a slow and painful death? Just think of all those nasty emissions that have been reduced by deleting the spare 
TPMS systems seem to me to be more hassle than they're worth Fords are very sensitive and constantly throwing up messages about low pressures for no reason!

Can no-one there count above 4?

Really does make you appreciate the simple things in life that we tend to take for granted-like walking the dog-glad you're well on the way to recovery.I'm sure the hospital will appreciate the "goodies"and the thanks it implies

Omega General Help / Re: Estate rear washer nozzle replacement
« on: 08 February 2017, 18:53:17 »
Never had an estate Omega and never looked closely at them either,but I can't see GM using an Omega specific part for this,so would imagine a nozzle from another GM estate [Vectra,Astra etc]should fit.Any chance you could measure them?Or try a local breakers yard for one?
