Why you wanna change the headlights they may be a bit dull. Best thing to do is rub em down with 1200 grit wet & dry, then clean em up with a bit of T cut, brings the lens up as good as new trust me they will look the muts manhood. Trouble they still wont light up a barn door at 30 feet. Omega headlights dont ya just lov em

was just as 1. they're a bit manky and 2. I get more light from a match kinda hoped some improved headlights would have helped but i'll give the wet and dry and t-cut a go first.

General Car Chat / A welcome return to the Mig

« on: 30 March 2010, 17:40:12 »

After a few years of a break (with a ford galaxy and a vw golf) due to car issues and money available at the time, i've finally managed to make it back into the world of the Mig.

Picked up my lovely X-reg 2l GLS today ... it's that kinda petrol blue colour lol hard to describe.

It's still absolutely urinating it down so as soon as the weather clears i'll be out with the Mig and the camera.

so.... whens the next JO meet

Any interest?

There is a Classic car meet at Callander 0n August 26/27 2007. I will be going on the Saturday, any of the jocks going to be there as well?
Would not expect many Omegas there on the stands but it would be nice to meet up with any one there. The link is here.http://www.callanderclassic.com/body_CCW.htm

Would not expect the organisers to allow for a cam change in the field but could try out a barby.

I could well be interested in this, might need to persuade the wife as she's got her C-Section date of 14th August but might be a wee excuse to whet the babies head (although driving so it would have to be a cola   lol )
