  1. The dropping of the stomach is the worst part of it, never had an accident (thank goodness) but I've had that feeling of inevitability a couple of times (once on sheet ice, idiots stopped in road watching cars slide back down a hill, I managed to avoid them and a wall... somehow)
  2. Seen some good ones since I got my dashcam (jag xj losing it on a roundabout, generic 5 series morons weaving through traffic), where do you stand in dropping footage of idiots with the police? Quality is 1080p so you can see enough detail.
  3. Gave my brother a lift putting an a3 back together after camshaft change, wasn't that bad a job. We were struggling for a torque wrench that did low enough nm though
  4. Great guide! Did mine this morning, used a Stanley knife to cut the cup holder out, was easier than I thought it would be too.
  5. I looked at them when the weather was cold, I hate scraping and would rather sit there with the heated seat on and a heated windscreen than get out. If I get a broken windscreen (has happened before (baseball bat carrying chav)) I'll be buying one. Very reasonable on price too at £250, and I'm sure you could just use the rear heated screen button via a relay.
  6. Loving this build! Would a heated windscreen be out of the question?
  7. Do you have a part number for that cup holder? I've bought one in the past and it wasn't right, was too square on the opposite side of the hinge. Had a pop out next to radio one on the last Fabia, what a waste of time...
  8. Looks good, always liked the lemon yellow fabia. Had one from new (06) until last year when I got ran in to on a roundabout and it was written off. Fit my headlights this afternoon, I'm impressed so far.
  9. I'm hoping I don't have any issues with the angle of the projector on the set I'm making at the moment. I've also added a relay so that I use halogen high beam whilst the dipped beam is off and bi-xenon when the dipped beam is on. It's only 3 wires and a bit of solder. Was the original projector you had in a 3" one?
  10. I'm just looking at which clear coat will do the best job, may as well do that whilst the lenses are off. The lacquer on the set I have is cracked on the bottom half of the lens
  11. Mine are alright, bracket that sits behind bumper on drivers side has been removed (doesn't look broken). Lenses could do with a polish. Managed to do both projectors yesterday, lenses came off fairly easy after 7mins at 75 degrees in the oven.
  12. Sorry fellas! Missed it, was a little worse for wear after a Christmas do in leeds.
  13. I had a whiteline on my old Fabia, only saw oversteer once on a wet roundabout. Fitted to new Fabia and h&r springs and dampers, not had any... Yet.
  14. Thought I'd drop a hello. Long time lurker, first time poster...
