    Annoying cargo nets in the tourer

    This used to be on THAOC but has now obviously gone so I just thought I would finally get around to taking out those annoying cargo nets in the tourer that just take up space and are never used. It`s easy enough to do and doesn`t really need a write up with pictures but hey it gives me something...

    Dash Cam CCTV

    I`ve lost all details of where I bought the camera from but I know it was somewhere in China. But since then I thought it had packed up so I bought another from a supplier in this country I think from a supplier called "baileysbigstore" but he doesn`t seem to have any now. I got the old one...

    LED CONVERSIONS

    Manual Headlight Adjustment

    I`ve wanted to but I`m sure someone here as said it can`t be done. It would be helpful when going over to France. There are some indications and holes on the plastic trim under the bonnet and over the headlights which seem to suggest that it can be done but when I`ve stuck a screwdriver in...

    ** DIY - FULL LED CONVERSION **

    Oh yeah, just spotted that. Just clutching at straws really. Others here have had no problems whatsoever and yet I think you are the third person to have the flashing glow plug light problem with stop/tail LEDs

    ** DIY - FULL LED CONVERSION **

    I`m glad it`s not just me. I thought I was doing something wrong. Could it be a facelift thing?

    LED Bulb Problem

    I too had problems with LED stop/tail bulbs though not the same as you Tony. The problem is detailed elsewhere but basically when I fitted my LEDs the glow plug light would come on. This was diagnosed by a Honda dealer as being a fault with the brake pedal switch. So I replaced this at a cost of...

    Removing sidelights

    Thanks Brett I`ll give the magnet trick a go. I have one of those extending rods that looks like a car aerial with quite a powerful magnet at the end. Ideal for poking about in dark corners.

    Removing sidelights

    I tried switching to 25 SMD LEDs the other day. Fitted it and pushed it back in but the bloomin thing fell out of the holder and into the sidelight lens/fitting. Anyone know how to get to the innards of the sidelight

    Glow plug indicator

    Yep gone back to the original filament bulbs and not had a problem since. The light would go out for me too after a while but eventually would come back on again. I would leave it for now if the light has gone out but if it comes on again try the bulbs first. My problem was happening over a...

    Glow plug indicator

    This exact same thing happened to me after fitting LEDs all round. The glow plug light would flash and after a few starts it would go out but as soon as i put it into reverse it would start flashing again. So the first port of call was to put the original reverse bulb back in but that didn`t...

    ** DIY - FULL LED CONVERSION **

    Hi Des I have a 7th Gen diesel tourer. I fitted this one to the stop/tail and the exact same bulb to the indicators and reverse but obviously in orange and white respectively. Like I said the stop/tail caused the glow plug light to come on, it would disappear after a while but come back...

    ** DIY - FULL LED CONVERSION **

    I`ve decided to go back to normal bulbs at the rear. The stop/tail LEDs caused my glow plug light to flash and caused me no end of problems mentioned in another thread. The reverse bulb caused interference on my satnav screen when in reverse (I have a reverse camera fitted) And yesterday I...

    MP3 tracklistings

    Clutching at straws here but does it play them like the after market Xcarlink does in date order. Even though my tracks appear in alphabetical order in Windows the Xcarlink in my 7th gen seems to play them in the order in which the mp3 was created.

    Auto Fold Wingmirror?

    He did mine too and whilst it was easy(ish) to physically fit, actually working out how to wire it all up with a couple of relays required some knowledge of electronics. Something I could never do
