  1. If you have not paid anything, its unlikely they will charge you. But... If you have ordered on their Terms & Conditions of Sale, which you have, unless you gave them yours with your order (which obviously you did not), then if their t&c state that Non Stock Items can not be returned for refund or orders cancelled (either at all - or after a stated period of time), then they can actually sue you for the cash, because you are legally bvund to take possesion and pay. It stops people doing what you have done, basically ordering something, which they have had to order in good faith. Then they are stuck with it for who knows how long. If every customer did it they would close quite quickly due to lots of stock and no cash left. The thing to do is - firstly dont say you want to try a cheaper version, just tell them that you have a problem and you can not afford to pay for them, but if your cash flow improves you will be back to purchase them. (wether you do or not) They will hopefully be sympathetic. Remember it only takes a company £30 to put a CCJ on you, I know, I do it to my customers who do not pay (especially £600). So dont ***** them off, you may get a jobsworth. BTW some copied stuff doesn't fit as well as OEM parts, but some is ok, but consider before you order.
  2. I was worried the first time I heard it, never heard that loud on any other car, but its nothing to worry about at all.
  3. yeah - give me 5 minutes. Right, even though it looks like you can just adjust the adjuster and that will do it, it want. Like me you probably found you can undo the adjuster and the pulley will not move. Basically the pulley also clamps to the bracket. You need to slacken the nut on the front of the pulley. then tyou can adjust it. I took mine completeley off and this is what it looks like behind the pulley Make sure you use a good fitting socket, mine was rounded by some mechanic at some time, so I ended up removing the rad to get my gaitor grip socket on it. Good look. If you are doing the other belts i can tell you about those also. (sorry photos are blurred. Rich
  4. get a "GAITOR GRIP" from a motor factor. Its a socket with pins in, that takes on the shape of any nut. I have used it when I misplaced mine on a different car - could carry on using the same nuts by using this everytime the wheel had to come off. It was only a few quid. heres what it looks like pic link
  5. I saw one today and it was
  6. thanks crazylex thats the one i want ,now then where can i buy one? :D What is the point of fitting a huge spoiler when the car does not have enough wellie to get anywhere close to needing a spoiler? Oh yeah....looks even sillier when the car stands as high as a tractor! you make it your mission to ***** us all off one at a time I like it - so who gives a **** what you think - stick to your airfix model paint
  7. I quite like my leather one. Doesn't look out of place at all, and are obviously less of them around. The other thing is that the giant ball bearing is too cold to the touch hehehe :) The summers coming, - it will be to hot to touch then. I like the chrome ball, the problem is that rings scratch it.
  8. I got a used one off ebay and had it painted. Not sure where you can get them from, without searching, but someone will be along in a minute with info. I think it is a TRD spoiler from an Altezza.
  9. A customer called Condon. He told the girl to call him back when she had controll of herself :D To be fair she was laughing uncontrolably at the time. Another guy I knew was called Upthegrove - not funny but a wierd name.
  10. The good news is this, lot will have the answers.
  11. Grey 04 reg Shame it was busy Rich
  12. My first car was a vauxhall viva ! My mates first car was a Viva -Gold Pardon my ignorance but what's a vauxhall viva? :duh: A nice red one Thise body coloured mirrors must be a mod :D
  13. My first car was a vauxhall viva ! My mates first car was a Viva -Gold He got it before he passed. He drove into a Ranchburger in Leeds .. Through the window- fortunately it was very early morning. Someone nicked it another time - Why ? I want an M3 - but reckon it will be 18 months before my co can afford 2 - 1 for me and 1 for the Viva driver !
  14. The doors make a nice noise when opening :D Ferrari version of Star Trek
  15. Well said I have not met any of you, but have had help, good advice, a laugh with most of you "virtual" buddies.
  16. Beer : Corona Spirit : Southern Comfort
  17. I agree 100% clothes I had this when the MK3 Astra came out, we had 20 or so of them. It was down to the engineers overalls and the seat material. Only solution was change material, or touch the ceiling before they got out. Even Vauxhall got involved as we were threating to send them back. They proved it to be clothes. Remember what happens when rubbing a balloon on your shirt - you can stick it to the ceiling. Rubbing your clothes against the seat creates static. Bounce may not be such a bad idea
  18. If its the same I have a brand new one for an IS200. You can have it for what I paid for it. Let me know if you want it. Rich - only about £35
  19. probably down to the muppets who get on their high horse over closing threads. Lets get him back and ban them
  20. Yup, same as this, I know US and UK keyboards have different layouts. If need the @ sign quickly you could always run charmap and copy it from there. Try checking the control panel for all the regional and language options settings (especially under Languages tab -> Details -> the Default input language). What do you get if you hold shift and press the number 2 key? D. Sorted - exactley as you said - US settings. Cheers buddy Rich
