    £70? saving on VED over three years of having the car ^^^ Are you having me on? 3 years? You change your car more often than I change my pants - but that's a different subject

    Quick Q - would anybody be interested in the option wheels from my rapid?

    I have found some 18'' alloys I like but they are a tad expensive so the others need to go to fund them...

    Finding a firm price and what it includes as I'm hoping the standard wiring works.

    Well not only are the headlights expensive and possibly don't come with ballasts to top it off the spoiler doesn't fit! Damn!

    Doh!

    I ve seen this photoshoped image of the rapid ( talking about the fog lights), so today i did this mod on mine. Using some black vinyl i had the result of the image.

    Removed the parking light bulbs, so now when i turn on the parking lights and the fog lights (using them as drl) only the surrounding of the foglights show up, as a sideways U drl. I like the result, much more aggressive. I might get some led H8 for the foglights, to make it more drl-look-alike
