was going to test fit the laguna splitter today to see if i like it as im still unsure on it but i couldnt feel my hands outside so that didnt happen
decided i'd start changing the bulbs over for the blue ones i got given for christmas instead, turned out to be a bit of a headache..
swapped the heater control ones over no issue
from this evening..
and that all i was able to do , for whatever reason i couldnt get the clock/temp display bulbs to work i had my dad test them and the bulbs lit up fine when he did that but wouldnt work when i put them in.. tested the standard ones to see if id broke somthing maybe but they still work fine when i put them back in , would of done speedo but didnt want to go through hassle of taking everything out for them not to work either.. not sure if its a bad set (tested all the bulbs in the clock/temp display) or im needing to do something else to get them working?

It's your car protesting against the blue bulbs and I don't blame it
When I fit white LEDs to my B they all worked ok for about a year then slowly they died.

Thanks mate
Haven't added up what I've spent in a while
The engine is a standard 1.0 still, I would like something bigger eventually but probably wouldn't be able to insure anything bigger at the moment.

Xes are a good choice. I'd honestly go small block with cars or something.

Few little updates..
I got fed up of the glovebox handle being blue, looked out of place so put the black one back on
Also successfully changed the MFD bulbs over, couldn't understand how they were working on tester but not in mfd so had a fiddle with them and flattened the contacts out with a screw driver as they were in a slight v shape and now they work
just need to do the speedo ones and the ones for the little unit where you turn cars lights on and off
should have some more stuff to update soon as theirs quite a few bits on the way to me
