One 2M Radio fitted into a small bit of the stripped out interior :)

Just finished fitting a small 2M Ham Radio into the car. I found that having the car stripped out gives a nice little gap just above the black box for the airbag (just below the ashtray). I hope it's well RF shielded!!

I think a 2' Breaker Bar may be the only way, but as they look like they're brass or something I'd guess the splines would come off the bolt before the sealant cracked!

I have my Sports wheel, I have the Tamper Resistant Torx bits, I have all the things needed........ BUT can I get the f*&£ing bolts to even BUDGE? Can I my BOTTOM!! So, does anyone have any advice on how to get the bolts undone so I can get the airbag off, and then change the steering wheel? I...

What size is it? I ask because I've ordered some LED Bolts for the back, and now I need to get a rubber bung/grommet to fill the hole the wires went through. Cheers.

Just pulled the carpet out and removed most of the felt soundproof backing so that it can go back in when I get the heat gun on the other soundproof bits, and also FINALLY did a quick fix for the gearstick return spring (which will last about 20 minutes, knowing my bodging skills ;)), and most...

Nah, V12's sound like a wasp farting through an amplifier. ;)

I like the idea of putting the Honda V6 from the Legend into a Micra. But then, what sounds better than a Sorted V6, other than a sorted V8? :)

Got some tyres fitted because the fronts were close to DANGEROUSLY buggered and the backs were the wrong size. Now my little Box Car is sitting on 185-55/14 rubber all round on the standard rims. It'll look better when I finally get around to buying springs, but it feels better already :)

It ticks all the "Rat Look" boxes, for sure :D

Instrument of Torture, handy for the sadist on the move?

WHY has nobody bought this? If it were closer I'd be there with a fistful of notes ripping your arm off!! :/

I was thinking more of doing the wing.

You can get Vinyl that looks like stickers (check EBay). That way you can just peel it off and you're back to standard again :)

Are you sure it's the gearbox and not just the release bearing of the clutch? They can get pretty noisy!

Yes. I've been doing that a lot lately, mostly computer bits though. Time to start spending some dosh on the Ratty Scabby Micra. :)

Bugger! I seem to have accidentally bought some red alloy window winder handles ;) Cheers, Jamie :)

Because my bonnet rattles around when I'm at speed I want to secure it somewhat better. Has anyone fitted bonnet pins, and if so have you got a How-To on fitting them? :)

Cheers Jamie. I may take you up on that. Meanwhile I'll have an ask around my local Factors, because they vanish faster than unattended ballpoint pens!

You know the bits I mean: Those annoying little spring clips that hold the winding handles on, and ping off into the wide blue yonder when you take the bloody things off!! I have lost ALL of mine (I am a genius at losing things), so I wondered if anyone knew a supplier for new ones, rather than...
