Re: Looking to buy some new headlights
Got to admit I'm very surprised with how bright these lights are. They required more wiring mods than I expected so they're definitely not a straight swap, but boy are they worth it! They're so bright and I don't even have decent bulbs yet! (I'm going to get some osram nightbreakers when I can affo...

Re: Weather Strip Replacemet
Hi, I managed to remove the old weather strips and put the new ones in without removing the door card just by winding it down and grabbing the metal part of the strip with pliers then using a trim removal tool to open the clips. The strip broke off in many places but once I gripped the metal of the ...

Re: Weather Strip Replacemet
Thanks I think I will give it a try first before removing the door cards, but the weather strips are extremely perished and a large piece broke off when I tried to remove them earlier. Hopefully I will get chance to look this week but if not i'm free from the end of the month to properly start the r...

Re: Looking to buy some new headlights
Thanks for this. I don't think I'll go with the quad setup for each light stage and just keep it as it is.

Hi, I've finally got a Capri after talking about it for the last 17 years and wanting one since I was 6, so I want to get it all repaired and uprated where required. My first job (before I start the daunting task of welding, which I haven't done any since I was 21, 12 years ago) is to replace the se...

Re: Looking to buy some new headlights
Have a word with Nick or John, they've both used modern replacement lights that are a straight swap for the standard ones. Andrew. Thanks. Nick has reassured me on the quality of his so I'll be ordering them next. Hi, are you able to say which ones they went for as I would be looking to change mine...
