Aha yeah I knew that when I was an apprentice! XD oh anyone have any idea where I can get some check strap pins? I hate how loud my doors click when I open them! Don't really fancy heading to a breakers just yet. Or if anyone has any spares or can pick some up at all I'd be willing to buy them :) here's what they look like

You buy them from vauxhall dealers for peanuts
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

Yeah I went and got some this morning!

This was what I did in order to get the pins in and out, tighten the spanner onto the pin and hammer away so you don't hit the car or deform the pin!

Old vs new

And now no more clickedy clicking doors :D

Also I think it's time for a new one of these rubber seals

Fair enough then! Can anyone suggest some good sidelight bulbs and dipped headlight bulbs? I hate the yellow colour they are as stock and I would like some nice white ones :)

These are the best ones to get mate, mine are 6k hi/lo ones so you can use the high beams too but I just constantly use the HID's unless I'm flashing someone to pass
