  1. i've been in touch with a supplier of webbing he said "Hi, We do not make the occupant restraint systems ourselves. There are numerous small businesses that will fit new seatbelt webbing. We sell a fair bit to enthusiasts who do the work themselves so it is possible to DIY. Some stitching is required and the webbing is quite thick. Regards Paul Hurst - ribbonsltd" so it is very much possible by the looks of it
  2. is 10 meters enough for 2 front and 2 back? seat belts are very long lol i found some being sold in treorchy, not far from me lol
  3. so am i tbh i got like 50 quid to last me a week lol i cant believe i missed that switch, i have so much fun teasing passengers with it lol
  4. well, i just went and cheked the button quickly and the window went down and up again without a problem seems as though it was just a easy fix thanks for reminding me about that little magic button i will keep a eye on it over the next week or so to see if it gets slower or any little twitches in it but lets pray for nothing this club is immense p.s if anyone in newport needs a mot done or any work, DONT go to newport transport lol
  5. i like the idea of different color seatbelts, where'd you get them from?
  6. i would like to i've checked, but its raining atm and if the window does go down, but not up, my interior will get soaked i will do the obvious checks when its dry i completely forgot about that switch tbh
  7. i got my car back from the garage the other day and they told me that there is a problem with my passenger window, it will go down, but not up again i told them to look at why this has suddenly happened and they said there is a break in the wire loop (or loom, was pretty pissed at them for breaking it so i wasnt really listening) is this easy to fix or isit a garage job? also, isit a cheap fix? any advice would be great
  8. thats my plan. but i'll settle for the 190 conversion for now
  9. i got a 140 now but am currently looking for a decent 190 engine to do a conversion i got all the parts, just need the main block now
  10. i'd go for white or black, depending on the colour scheme of your car
  11. thats good news how'd you wire them up like that? yes, i am shit with modding lol
  12. i've already wired my halek ring this way isit possible to solder the halek ring and the footwells to the same wire?
  13. Have you got them wired so that they come on when the headlights come on?
  14. i thinks its different for the external
  15. so in theory, putting some led strips in the footwells should b fine, providiny u cant actually see the bulb. just see the light from the bulb?
  16. so they are legal, but only if the glow through the windows isnt distracting to other road users?
  17. i new blue lights in the headlights and towards the front and rear of the car wasnt good coz it immitates cops but not sure bout the footwell lol
  18. i got some led strips and i want to wire them up in my footwell so that they are on when my lights are on. it would be a really nice blue glow to go with my halek ring then does anyone know the legality of this?
  19. no, they just gave me a sheet saying what i failed on and the same but in welsh
  20. i put new tyres on bout a month ago, well, partly worns, but still shuldnt b bald already i went to newport transport btw
  21. the seat dont look worn, the garage is gona ring back with a quote for parts and labour so see the diference and see if its worth the hassle of doing it myself
  22. not suprised i failed but i am suprised what i failed on 1. nearside (insecure and out of focus) headlamp excessively deteriorated so that the light output is severly reduced (1.7.4a) 2. offside headlamp aim too low (1.8) 3. nearside headlamp aim too low (1.8) 4. offside rear (seat back insecure (bolts missing lower hinge fixing)) passenger seat insecure (6.2.3) 5. nearside rear (tread below limit) tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.e.1) 6. front brakes imbalanced (3.7.a.2d) i can get a tyre 25 quid so thats easy lol they didnt spot the illegal sunstrip or the illegal window tints, so i got lucky there any ideas how much that'll cost to fix?
