Ah right, my mate might have used 'cheapo' effort or a watered-down version then!

Might be a bit late but...

...Glass paint?

A mate of mine did some of his dash bulbs in blue and they lasted a couple years until he sold the car and I presume they're still ok.

Get some...

No;

I got the part mixed up in the thread title, but in the end it cost me £363 for new headlight units as they are complete units, you cant get...

I misunderstood (was in a state of shock lol) the mechanic, it was the reflectors that were knackered - the foil-type things in the headlight units.

So I got it back today, £363 later :(

I know...

Well, I had a chat with the mechanic today and it's the reflective metal that is faded/weathered/knackered.
He didnt go for my idea of stuffing some tin foil in there as the beam needs to be...

The way things are going I might move down to Shropshire mate!

They came into my work and told me the story, so I just said sort it asap.

Hopefully it will be ready tomorrow, and i'll ask them...

I've got a strut brace and Koni adjustables on mine. Standard springs at the moment...

On the road it's great, I used to have an astra gsi on stiffened shockers and it would knock your teeth out...

As I was just whinging about this on another thread...

My S70 just failed it's MOT today with the above knackered, and so requires two new headlight units.

It was only yesterday I was reading a...

Yeah I know, but me being an idiot forgot it expired today, so it's stopping there until they source the new lights (should be tomorrow).

I've definitely learned from this, that I should book it...

Well at least you wont have to spend nearly £400 to get it through its MOT.

Unlike me :( (failed today)

The 'levellers' are knackered on both headlight units, so apparently i've been blinding...

Good stuff! :B_steerin

It's always been on my 'to do list', but i've made sure i've got the brakes/suspension ready for it. That however comes at a price :(

And now other costs seem to be...

Sounds (and looks) bloody fantastic!!

What with you only being half an hour-ish down the road i'm definitely interested, not sure what you could do though :confused:

I dont know about the...

ooops, oh well, i'll be sourcing a torque wrench this weekend then!

(J35 M6)

Joe :)

I dont have a torque wrench so I just tightened them to FT (££££££££££ Tight) :sorry:

I got my carriers and discs from 'Marshalls', do a search on here to find the contact info ;)

Joe :)

That is a bit cheky! How lazy is that?!

Nice looking car though :cool: I might buy it! :wink:

More likey just to be the switch, just give it a wiggle/push and it should come back :)

Yeah mine comes up with 'disc' sometimes, I just switch it from say, 'ave mpg' to 'ave speed' etc and it tends to come back :)

Ah right, thanks for that mate :)

As i'm not 100% certain that the EBC Saab discs will fit, I think i'll definitely go for the Volvo-specific 3g discs! :D

Cheers,

Joe :)

Anyone?? :confused:

I'm now thinking I might go down the 3g route after reading through previous posts.

I'd want the 20 groove 302mm discs though, so I think i'd have to order them 'for' an...

My car already has the 302mm brakes on, but I warped one of them on a recent track day :(

So are these likely to fit?

A Volvo...

Thanks for your replies people :)

I'm no good whatsoever at 'car work', :redface: I could probably strip it, but then i'd be screwed when it comes to putting back together again :rolleyes:

So...

I think it's started after I got the 302mm brakes on, but it's really loud from the outside and annoying on the inside :(

It's just a constant 'squeaking' as the wheels are turning, but it stops...

Yeah cheers for that mate, are they much hassle to fit??

It doesnt seem to matter if I slam it or not, just goes balls-up at random, damned electrical faults! :(

No mate :( It just 'fixes' itself temporarily at random :confused:
