I think so too, but the way im going through wheels at the mo i need all i can get

Drive went ok, not floored it yet though as im shitting it and im meant to be going out tonight so can't afford to be waiting for the AA. But all is well driving wise

Just need to get the flexi pipe in the down pipe replaced as its blowing.

And HID's are awesome!

Unlike the corsa though these have seperate dipped and mains so I will have to just get dipped I think.


Been looking at the fitting guide on civictyper.co.uk and it looks horrifically fiddly as the bay is about as spacious as your golfs

based on what you had to do to change the sidelight Be prepared for some graze knuckles!

I only got dipped for mine, main beam is pretty bad in comparison but i rarely use it so not too fussed tbh!.

Looking good Mr Fro, are the HID's easy to fit?

Thinking of investing in some next month, but I have a feeling it will make me a while to suss out

Got Recovered home by the AA yet again last night!

Started of being unable to get into reverse. So i lubed up everything on top of the gearbox and got reverse back = result!

Then i tried to pull off in 1st and.......nothing
2nd.......nothing
3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and reverse work fine but not 1st and 2nd. Potentially gearbox is a goner
