Yes, excellent service

I'd highly recommend them to anyone! Try to place your order before 3:30 though if you want it next day as thats when their courier picks up the goods :thumbs:

I sent them an email expressing how happy i was with their service. People only ever seem to contact companies with complaints, i think its nice to show appreciation too

not hard to fit at all, probably best off going to a scrappy.

I'm sure the diesel corsas have better alternators

They are reasonably easy to fit, loosen fan belt, and undo alt (couple of bolts max), put on new alt, tighten fan belt

Do i just get a new one at vaux?

yes, however it was the cheapest place i could find for 0 awg kit

adi, what kind of money would you be wanting to spend?

try upgrading your alt first, that should sort out the dimming :thumbs:

I got the battery terminals, ANL fuse holder and 200amp ANL fuse from blade ice, and i was very impressed with quality, although it does come at a price as im sure you will know!

What sort of rating battery shud i be looking at getting? Whats the best that will fit in the standard place as mine is damn old, probably die a replacement.

Just replace battery with one from a diesel corsa or replace alternator with one from a diesel corsa

a cap might help with dimming, but will probably make things worse if your power supply isn't good enough (which it isn't as you have dimming)
