Well, it was dry and cold, so i figured i would do a bit more to VeeTwo

What i intended to do this weekend was swap my headlight switch over as mine is broken and swap the mainbeam/flash lever over as my flash has stopped working

But didnt do that, so im going to do that today

Anyways, i did this instead

Old wank induction kit off in favour of a standard drilled airbox with K&N panel filter.
Drilled a few holes and got it fitted -

Much better

Then a bit off this -

And a hairdryer, and i was set off getting my badges off

Before-

After -

Thats better

Then decided to try the back ones, but it was really cold and trying to keep the panels warm was a bitch

So took forever. But got most of it off. Gave up and left Vauxhall there till another day. Atleast the 1.6 badges are off

Looks lob-sided but i kind of like it today

Only thing is, its left a right tiny layer of adhesive - it did this on V947 but it wasnt noticeable, here it is close up

Any ideas on how to get it off properly?

Ive used bug and tar remover and super resin polish, heat and picking, and water all mixed with elbow grease. But no joy

Todays de-modification and badge strippage

Some white spirit or petrol on a rag will bring that glue off mate.

Why didn't it have a flash thing? Because it was bust, or just didn't have one? Mine has. . .

It was bust, i was hoping there was a fuse somewhere but i couldnt understand the fuse panel and my main beam still worked so guessed it was the switch.
Happened before in V947 due to me holding main beam on instead of clicking it to stay on.

id get a 20mm drill bit and make them holes a tad bigger, the smaller the holes the more of a whistling noise you will get under hard acceleration...bigger the holes, the more air flow and the deeper the induction note will be
