Hey guys my conundrum is as the title suggests really. I'm getting around to changing my main beam bulbs, I had a quick look this morning but with me having the hands the size of a baby gorilla, I got nowhere fast.

Good evening, Is there a simple solution where I don't have to change my OEM stereo unit and can improve the output of my setup. I have a 2010 gt cloverleaf with blue+me and the subwoofer in the boot. Could I add an amp etc for crisper sound but still keep the original look and feel of the...

After spending some time reading threads about induction kits and so on, i decided to see how easy it would be to modify the airbox. Turns out the snorkel tube which exits the airbox at the top and is bolted to the top of the inner wing under the bonnet, has 2 push tabs (one on either side of...

Am doing a rebuild of "Ruby's" engine after she was "Torpedoed" in the Brissy Mega-Storms the other month & suffered bent Conrods due to Hydro locking. I am balancing & lightening the Conrods & Pistons while they are out, the lighter these heavy components are, the more it helps the engine to...

In recent days the roof was getting slower and slower to operate and got to the point where I had to help the rear deck lift and help the hood start to fold away. Putting it back up would go in one operation except that the rear bow wouldn't lock and we got the cycle incomplete error. To start...

I have had my Mito for 2 years now and I want to do some simple mods. I am not looking to spend a lot of money (£150) or any if that is possible. Thanks.:)

I decided to make a simple modification to my airbox to help with the cars ability to breathe and also to reduce the likelihood of it sucking up a lake of water, given all the recent rain! The mod was to just shorten the inner snorkel within the airbox so that it does not sit as low, thus...
