Smart car dude it looks tidy, where did you get the bulbs for the rear number plate from?

[srhcresswell]

Cheers mate, I got them off someone on here, you can get them off ebay cheap as chips think they are a 501 LED bulb (I THINK), just have a search theres loads!

[Ragingspeedhorn]

hmm those roads look familiar is it backroads to lancaster?cant quite place them great pics though mate!

[srhcresswell]

It's the top roads above settle, not too far from Lancaster. good roads with plenty of sharp turns and long straights good fun!!

[srhcresswell]

This little treat was waiting for me when i got home last night





Fitted it last night took me about 10 mins, and all i can say is wow the difference is amazing! just in need of a skunk2 knob now!

[Rick-leeds]

Looking good! Can I ask you actually how do you change the number plate bulbs? How do you get the domes off?

[martin1086]

to fit the led lights all you do is push the plastic covers either left or right there is a arrow on them,
then squeeze the grey plastic clips and pull it out (get some one with small fingers) really quite easy takes 5mins
hope this helps

also very clean car mate would ditch the sticker on the spoiler though looks out of place :thumbup:

[Webby_85]

Looks nice for a satin lol.

[joeR]

Is that a short shifter? If so, whats the difference? does it feel weird or anything? How much?

[srhcresswell]

Cheers mate, there easy enough just do as Martin said and you'll be sorted mate!

[srhcresswell]

Cheers mate,Was just thinking about taking that sticker off today actually think I will do it tomorrow!
