Hi all,
Got a black 04 SL55 here which is going to be getting a massive detail tomorrow to sort out a lot of defects (tons of swirleys) in the paint amongst other things.
I was at a ford dealer earlier today and the sales man was incredibly kind and gave me a free diamond bright treatment as...
I am toying with the idea of trying Gloss Black on my new (to me) c200k. The wheels need a refurb but I can't decide on the finish. They are AMG.
I am doing refurb as I cannot justify a set of C63 (black multispokes) unless someone has a set for me? ;)
I HATE tatty wheels!!
Any opinions???
Getting in the car this evening after leaving work I noticed that the main display was dim and flickering slightly.
Are display problems common on W203 models and is there a fix or is replacement the only answer?
Thanks.

Ive seen this colour combo on a W208 320 that had orange exterior to match but this looks like a tidy W210 E55 pre facelift despite the tip and trip computer in the advert, and the dodgy gunners sight on the bonnet
I am pretty OCD when it comes to torches and have normally bought the ones by LED Lenser.
I saw this in the ALDI special buys and took a chance on it at £10.99

I've had cars with Xenons before but in the W211, I seem to get a few people ahead complaining I have not dipped my lights.
Of course I can easily prove I have dipped my lights but I'm wondering if they might not be aligned correctly.
What changed today is for the first time not only an...
Hi all
The good news is that my long running r129 saga is drawing to a positive end. She has an engine and gearbox installed and they both seem to work (!!!) and today she was pronounced healthy by that man that issues those green pieces of paper!!!!!
However
she has an ATF leak, and...
You wont find a brighter set. Will work fine with bulb system as draws nearly the same current as the original bulb.
Unlike the "canbus" ready ones which use a resistor and give out little light these ones are efficient and much brighter.
About 5cm long in total so do check you have the room...
Any kind member please advice how can I have ultra bright sidelights on my mercedes s320 cdi on 53 plate as my previous attempts have failed with no results.Normal 501 sidelight bulbs work no problem. Thanks in advance. Ashfaq

Hi!
Ok, so I've decided to change few bulbs - at the back for regplate and for the vanity mirrors. I'd like to replace them with some ULTRA bright bulbs (LED).
Can someone recommend any? Where to buy?
Any other precautions?
Many thanks!
Chris
I know this has been debated many times, but am wondering whether things have changed.
Any suggestions for a "white" and "bright" replacement bulbs for cars without Xenon?
I had PIAAs on a previous car, and was impressed. Since then PIAA has all sorts of bulbs. What is the best (i.e. the...

Everyone speaks of defecting to the dark side. Well I like to be different, so why not defect to the bright side? Well if the sun rises there, then it must be increasingly bright. ;)
Over recent months I've mulled over a switch to the Porsche Boxster, Mercedes C63 AMG, SMART ForTwo, and...

I know the PIAA's are the preferred tried and tested bulbs of the forum :) But i was wondering if anyone has tried these bulbs from E-bay.
The old saying "You get what you pay for" is in my mind...
I want to get the brightness of the speedo, fuel, oil temp. dials to dim a bit so that they match the radio and heating dials.
I find that the dials on he speedo etc. are too bright, but when I dim them to a nice level (around half) I can no longer see the radio/heating controls etc.
I was...
