    You clean it as much as you want, when I buy it, it will save me some time.

    Well I have actually fitted something I have bought for it. Not just put in the boot.
    Yes it works well just plugs into my imiv unit.



    It's nice and small looks spot on to me.
    No that's not a scratch below the camera in the paint work just a reflection (but it did go back out to check)

    Did the gearbox oil & fitted a magnetic drain plug, If I ever remove it will be interesting if there's much on the magnet.



    .

    The gearbox uses copper washers not the alloy ones like the engine oil.

    Came across these new Osram LED lamps, they do come in two colour 3000k & 6000K. The 6000K lamp is nice and bright.

    Do you just spend your time reversing, you seem to be spending a lot of time making sure you can see behind you.

    l today fitted the winters tyres at the same time fitted 4 new drop links to the anti roll bars.

    Did price up volvo one's but just silly money around £70 each, So I got some lemforder one's was told that they make them for Volvo which cost £130 for the 4.

    The one's I removed looked the same as the Lemforder one's no play in them at all and can't see any bills to say they have been changed at any point.






    The new anti roll bars are now painted a nice grey as the bright blue would just look wrong.
    The bush saddles ,i have fitted grease nipples to them so will be easy to grease up twice a year as ipd recommend to do.

    getting them fitted this Monday morning so will report back.

    Really?? I don't understand that!
    My local main dealer supplied and fitted my rear ARB links last year and charged me £75 fitted!
    fronts are £56 retail plus VAT, so yes, Lemforder ones are cheaper.
