  1. From Argos after an email inquiry: Thank you for your email regarding purchasing an Xbox1. We have had stock in and will have more leading up to Christmas. Please check our website and your local stores for stock regularly to avoid disappointment. If you need any further assistance simply reply to this email or call us on 0845 640 2020 and we will be happy to help. My mate also managed to pick up an Xbox one form Argos on Thursday. Keep an eye out!
  2. Are these not to bright for number plate bulbs?
  3. I gave up with the reset method in the end and just put tape with no tape inside, works fine. I did unplug the Bluetooth device from the power and the background noise disappeared, its a cheap filter for me next
  4. I got these for the number plate, perfect brightness and cheap. Still not blown and has been in for weeks! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4X-T10-W5W-501-Xenon-White-7-LED-Car-Interior-Side-Number-Plate-Light-Lamp-Bulb-/360624224304?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item53f6e0f830
  5. I was going to get one of these, good reviews: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Inforad-K2-Camera-Warning-legally/dp/B003JBJFPS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1383241044&sr=8-1&keywords=speed+camera+detector You can wire it into the cig lighter, this should show you how to wire a lighter connector on a cable so just tap into the lighter from the rear: If you look into the cigarette lighter the middle at the bottom is the + and the sides are -
  6. I didn't think about the cig lighter being the cause of the noise, I'm also using a cheap lighter to usb plug. I will investigate a bit more.... EDIT: So something like this could be the solution: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260701376336&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT
  7. Right, any price considered as long as its cheaper than new!
  8. If mine was black I would go silver/gun metal or bronze. I'd still save and get some forged alloys...
  9. Update, the functions are awesome, just jump in the car switch on the ignition and it pairs so I just have to start the music on my phone. It can be hidden away as you don't need to press anything if its connected up to a switched power source. Bad point: Its got a fair bit of background noise when the volume is up and the clarity between highs, lows and mids is not great. Looks like I will be investing in another more expensive one to see if its got better sound but at £7 its worth a buy! 01/06/2014 UPDATE: Used a cheap AUX noise filter as suggested before and I cannot be happier with the unit, no noise what so ever. It links straight away and I just use a sticky phone holder on my Satnav screen like blow: Sound if great and its completely hidden. There are only 2 negatives after using it for over 3 months: 1. The USB charger cable that comes with it is flimsy and I replaced it as it was cutting out, now perfect. 2. If you pop into a shop or move away from the Bluetooth range (which is big) it will not reconnect automatically, you have to manually do it on your phone or flick the switch off and on. This could be fixed if you removed the battery so it starts up with the ignition but I haven't attempted this as it doesn't really bother me. Best car audio part for the price I have ever bought!

    Which colour?

    Oh maa goooodnesss, that formula silver is amazing!
  11. First time i'v ever used that smiley, does this mean i'm now an integral part of the forum
  12. Personally I'm not into the strange colours as it makes it a look a bit chavvy and that's coming from a 24 year old. Save the money and get new rims, I don't think you can beat these
  13. Oh yeah, remembered now! +1 On the Autosol. But looking at those exhaust tips, I'd pick up a large tube of elbow grease too I don't think they will need that much polishing but its the burnt tips that go bad, they will not look blue again even after polishing. Found that out recently when I sold the Scoob, I ran out of elbow grease on that occasion.
  14. If you get bored of it sell it to me, i'm after one but cant justify 100 odd £
  15. http://my350z.com/forum/audio-video-and-electronics-diy/354914-install-guide-bose-kenwood-dnx7100-pac-roem-nis2-03-cubby-painted-cubby-monitor.html Does anything in that help?
  16. Scorpion is a cheap man's alternative to a Miltek, its cheaper but still really really well made and sounds lovely.
  17. I think those exhaust tips need a good polish!
  18. OBD2 is switched, comes on when ignition is on
  19. If you have the inbuilt sat nav then stick one of these to it: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Holder-Sticky-Gadget-Blackberry-Samsung/dp/B007CJS9NM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1382802397&sr=8-1&keywords=car+sticky Then you can just stick your phone on it, sorted!
  20. My bad, try this link: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Boza-Wireless-Bluetooth-Stereo-Audio-Music-Receiver-for-Car-AUX-AMP-Speaker-/200968311264?pt=UK_Computing_Networking_SM&hash=item2ecaa511e0 Received mine today, fitted it up so its using a cig lighter USB charger. Sounds good maybe a little bit more muddy but I havn't fiddled with it yet. I will let you know how good it is and how functional (if at all) hidden away so you cant see it. First impressions: 7/10
  21. May even be worth trying on of these, I have just bought one so will fit it all up and see if I keep having to switch it on each time: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200968311264&ssPageName=ADME:L:OU:GB:3160

    Steamed up!

    I get this to, was looking at the rain x anti fog stuff? Also apparently rubbing the screen with shaving foam can help? Anyway air-con sounds good, doesn't it use a lot more petrol or with this engine size will it not make a difference?
