  1. I think the light warning only comes on for your main beams. As it didn't tell me both my side lights were gone! Id say the bulbs have blown you'll be able to see them through the lenses. Is usually quite clear when the bulbs blow Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
  2. Some people are very good at forum searching! Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
  3. It will come back to haunt me when I try to sell them on in a year or two! For £750 :P Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
  4. There is not a high demand for any Fabia/polo/Ibiza parts over here so consideably less than £750 Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
  5. Yeah you need to get into it from the bottom. take the lower engine cover off and you can get easy access to all the lower pipes. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
  6. It annoys me but they make up for it! Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
  7. The clips that hold the pipes together are known to wear and loosen up over time! you can buy upgraded billet connectors on ebay. I think darkside does an entire upgraded silicone pipe work for around £250 this is the pipe I replaced the one that comes straight off the turbo.
  8. Definitely a lot more hugging than the vrs seats. To be honest look a lot better and id say will be easier to keep looking clean!
  9. So a few updates Did the Joey mod on the lights Not going to lie I hesitated when taking them apart as I know projector lenses are not cheap! I also updated the interior with the 9n3 Polo GTi I like all the little subtle red stitching on the interior parts think they will go well with the red body! [/url]
  10. So I took the plunge and bought them worse comes to worse I don't like them and sell them on I also got the steering wheel, seat belts, hand brake and gear stick with all the red stitching I doubt I won't like them! I didn't pay anywhere near £750
  11. If they are rare does it mean they are any use? I kinda like the idea of them as I've got a red Fabia and they have the red stitching in the tartan along with the steering wheel and seat belts! So should I be expecting to sell my body a lot more this Christmas? Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4
  12. Just wondering if these are any use? if I could get my hands on a set! Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4
  13. I have the same problem! Not sure about you Ive got the factory projectors I took them out to see if everything was sealed off and it all checked out hasnt happened since! If that doesnt work i suggest throwing some of those silica gel packs that you get in shoe boxes into the headlights!
  14. Thanks and all my stickers I make myself sorry :P I've seen similar stickers on cars you must be able to get them online somewhere!
  15. This is the correct method if it feels like it didn't work need to bleed the abs pump which requires vcds Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4
  16. Octavia was a petroholic that's why I got the Fabia but I do miss the speed and noise!!! my next thing on the list is timing belt and then a seat sport fmic holding off too see if a group buy comes along. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4
  17. I dont really think so either but most of the compliments ive been getting is off the women like "its so cute!" Is not something i want to hear :P. I wish it was factory but unfortunately its not, came out of the Octavia! Sound could be better but it looks like it belongs so it makes up for it! Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4
  18. I had a silver octavia before didnt get as much attention! I was looking for about two months for one nearly gave up then my last check it came up and had to have it check every single box! In terms of body its perfect bar a few stonechips! Black is a lot more aggressive looking that's why it was my second choice! Red is a bit mid life crisis girly look on a Fabia but with the blacked out look and soon to be lowered I hope to make it a bit more masculine. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4
  19. When I decided I wanted one it was either going to be black or red. I went with the red and haven't looked back the red turns so many heads! Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4
  20. The light in the Superb's came with two red led's that lit of the dash to give an ambient feeling during the night They didn't come in Fabia's or Octavia's only superb's where the lighting is green think its called cat vision or something like that! For the Sat Nav What you need definitely need: Head Unit What is optional for gps and music to work: Ebay GPS antenna Ebay Plug & Play kit CD changer OR Ebay aux connector(iPod etc.) Maps Disc
  21. You only need the sat nav unit if ya can strip the car out and get the original gps antenna that would save you about 5 pounds then you'll still need to buy the ebay adapter cable! You need this so the gps location can update constantly as the ebay cable allows it to send either wheel rotation pulses or abs pulse to the HU to refresh the location every few rotations! Thats why you need to set the navigation unit up for it to work correctly! It does finely adjust its self over time though. Also take the dome light with the ambient lighting :P
  22. Updates!! Exterior only little subtle things done as im on an extremely tight budget for the moment! Wheels cost me e20 and took about 2 hours in total to do. They look better than they did! Put some yellow fog light bulbs in too only because i think they look well with the projectors and the red. Little interior update to finish everything off. 2012/13 maps so the roads are up to date and its actually a little bit useful!
  23. Just get the adapter loom plug it in and enjoy! That's what i did!
