You ought to see some of the weird creatures hitching a ride in the containers from China! The odd bit of fruit brought back on a plane is probably harmless in comparison. At least our customs aren't as paranoid as the Aussies :D BG

Welcome from me too :) BG

I wonder how much clamps cost? I'd absolutely love to see that (and an enforcement notice stuck to the window with a release fee) :D it would hopefully shut the woman up. A mate of mine has similar problems with the paranoid woman across the road, whenever I go round there the curtains are...

I only got it from there because I was in a hurry :p (also wasn't 100% sure it would work in which case I could return it). I put the pic up so people could see what it looked like ;) BG

One thing is certain: Speed cameras ARE a distraction. There are several roads I know where people trundle along at 26MPH with their attention fixed firmly on the speedo, or realize at the last second that they are about to pass a camera and slam the anchors on. If you are watching your speedo...

Those connectors are the same as the ones used on the K11. The blank "socket" is where a connector would be for rear speakers, though the same adaptor lead will fit just minus the rear speaker plug. The existing aerial plug should fit most new head units. I bought one for my K11 from here -...

CD quality is better assuming the source material is from a CD. If using MP3 go for the highest bitrate and preferably variable bit rate (VBR). There won't be much (noticeable) difference between that and the original CD. BG

Oops! I was thinking of the K10 winder handle, took me ages to work out how to get those off! :blush: My K11 doesn't have them. BG

That's interesting, I just used an ISO adaptor and an aerial adaptor and it worked fine! The only problem I had was the provision for fitting the brackets to the player is crap and I ended up riveting the brackets to it :p I'll check the electrical connections next time I have the dash off. I...

I'm interested in those - do you have a Paypal account? BG

As long as he hasn't been involved in an accident due to "bashing his bishop" whilst driving :p BG

Same thing happened to mine (passenger window), it had been replaced at some point and not fixed in properly. The window started coming loose when you wound it down. I cleaned off the nylon holders and used Epoxy on it, has been fine since. Make sure you wind it up fully before the epoxy sets...

Has anyone considered the fact that a lot of accidents are actually caused by pedestrians who wander across the road without even bothering to look? I've given up trying to remember the number of times myself or someone in front of me has had to take evasive action because some dozy pillock is...

I know the feeling all too well, had the mirrors twisted round twice on my K10, had the aerial snapped off, then some git broke in by screwdrivering the passenger lock, ripped the glovebox door off (snapped the lock into several pieces) and everything was strewn about inside the car. Nothing was...

Thanks I'm not sure how bad the dent actually is, since it was hard to tell last night with all the red paint scraped across it. I'll have a proper look now but it will need stripping and spraying at the very least. I don't know if it's possible to pull it out as the actual dent is right next to...

Microwave motors If you still want one I have a couple of these, let me know & they're yours for the cost of postage plus maybe a quid towards my next pint for extracting them ;) BG

Some dozy tw** has sideswiped my Micra, presumably whilst pulling out from the double yellow section just behind where my car is parked and they've scraped the left rear side panel (it's a one-way street, I'm parked on the right). The bumper has been dented near the middle and the left side, so...

Yes, the K-reg was the first of the K11s. My K11 is a K reg :) BG

What Bash said :) BG

If you've got somewhere to keep it and work on it in your own time, I'd certainly keep it. Unfortunately I don't have that luxury which means I'll be forced to part with my old K10 when the insurance etc. runs out :( BG
