Just remember that the clear side repeaters are only about 4 quid each from a dealer new......

I always thought the indicator/headlight units came as one unit not seperate or does this only apply to facelift omega's

I must admit that I haven't looked at this kind of stuff on the miggy, but side repeaters are usually in the fender behind the front wheel.

Edit, someone got the americanism filter wrong.  F ender=wing not bumper.

Apologies I was thinking the main indicator units in the headlights, I know these can be changed if the lense is removed.

The reason I thought these was the picture in gwilym signature look to have dark lense indicators at the front.

Side repeaters makes more sense

Really generous offer to put this to the forum  

If it's got HIDS then I'm after the connector sensor on the passenger side front wishbone - the wiring on mine has come out the connector so I'm after getting the connector with a good bit of wiring on the end of it to splice onto the wires left on mine.  

Let me know if you do get hold of them... I'll swap you for beer vouchers, exchangeable at any pub.  

Cheers!

I though F ender was a guitar

HIDS are mine but not fitting self levelling yet

Well guys!
Complete waste of time really.

They had the leather interior I asked them to put back for me (they would have posted it if I had asked) but it was as it a pack of vultures had been at the rest. A cdr 2005 and ccr 2006 but other than that nothing. Good job I reserved the seats

Gwilym

They did say they would call me the moment another one comes in

Anyone want a facelift velour set of seats for an estate?

Gwilym changing subject slightly looking at yours alloys are they the reflection/tourer ones as they look pretty good, not seen them on a facelift before if they are what I think they are.

Thanks anyway

Not Sure. Don't think they are standard MV6 ones but they are what were on the car when I got it and I liked them so haven't made any changes to them. They could do with a refurb though

Did you ever get that oil and filter change done?

[Gwilym]

Yep. Oil and Filter Done

And coolant change again cos I had a new radiator

Nothing for quite a while now I hope but I might start "tinkering"

Dictionary defination of "tinkering" = messing about with something that is perfectly ok when you don't know what you are doing and making it worse than it ever could be if it failed by itself

[JamesV6CDX]

If you want something productive to tinker with, it would be worth cleaning out the breather system and throttle bodies on your car. Easy job to do, has a great big good impact on the car, and will give you a sense of achievement

[Gwilym]

Send me the instructions then and I may tackle it on my next day off, just make sure you are free to come and bail me out

[JamesV6CDX]

I'm going down to help the barge captain with his timing belt/breathers/throttle body very soon..

You'd have to ask him, but I'm sure he wouldn't mind if you joined us and watched the process!

[JamesV6CDX]

A couple of beers are also on the cards afterwards

Which is great for me, because I'll likely travel down by train on the way to see the MRS..
