Thanks Major. I have so much to share and ask a few questions.. Simple ones..like which Hid or Led for the H7 sizes? Looking for white light. Not fancy. 4300 or 6000 kelvin the most. Are the Chinese 30£ models worth it?

Wow, Club Owner in the hood. I am honoured sir.

Great club, super admins and a good group of people I see.

I come from the Land of Cold and the leaf, the Canadian leaf. A born Canadian living in Athens, Greece with a newly acquired but VERY ABUSED 2005-Coupe.

I want to show this car some love and respect, and need a lot of help in getting it. I simply don't know where to start from? My ESP need? How to properly clear my headlights? How do I get a door lock to stop closing the passengers door when I open mine!.....and many other very strange things happening, thankfully not in the engine bay, although the fact that my car has not outside temp gauge and fuel saving
show and tell is a must!

I hope to find these and fortunately many other things to deal with in the near future.

Oh, and did I tell you about the car alarm that doesn't make noise? Or how about I bought the car from someone in prison!

Yeah, I will live and breathe this site for the next few months in the least. You are all my Guru's!!!

I cannot thank you enough for this, and please know it is much appreciated.

Tony
