Hi, I too fitted an aftermarket stereo complete with Autoleads steering wheel adaptor, I have lost the lights on the steering wheel controls, is it easy to get the lights working again?

I changed my switches for blue ones ages ago, I think they look cool and if anyone considers me gay then that's great, I am old enough to remember when gay meant happy, and I am very happy with them!!

If yours is the mini facelift there are two different bulbs for main and dipped beam, H1 and H7.

If you are ever round the Widnes area I can recommend Andy Stockton at www.asautocare.co.uk he is an independant Vauxhall specialist.

there isn't a temp read out  on the display at-all even when i use the stalk thingy just f n c .

Sounds like you have a faulty sensor, one of the electrical geniuses should be along shortly to give some advice on what to do next.

Hi, it will show the outside temp automatically when the temp drops below 3deg centigrade. You can also get it to display the temp by scrolling the info using the bottom(I think) button on the end of the right hand stalk on the steering column.

Hi, I had the Philips +50% in both the main and dipped beams, I have replaced them with the Nightbreakers but I don't think that there is much improvement over the Philips, in fact the light output does not seem as good as the beam pattern appears to be more dispersed.

Good to hear that phone has been good to you.
My N95 has had mixed reviews, but with updated firmware I have found it to be excellent.

Bonus result on the ebay sale too!

Ps. If you feel like a change, look at the Sony Ericsson phones, they have some great ones.

I'm lookin', I'm lookin'

Without wishing to make this into a mobile phone review thread I would be cautious about the E65. It has very mixed reviews on useability and relaibility.

It is really a question of what you want and need of the phone.

Point taken Dave, I will just say I have been lucky, I have had my E65 for 12 months now and it has never given me a problem, connects to the Pioneer first time every time, and has never broken down, just felt I would like a change. I have gone basck to the E65 now and sold the N81 on Ebay for a liitle more than I paid for it

Hi Dave and Jimbob, yes I connect regularly with Nokia PC Suite and let it search for updates, but the only one it has found up to now is an update for the PC Suite. Have just tried it again now and it tells me there are no new updates available. I think I will stick it on ebay and get a new Nokia E65 instead, no problems with this model.
