Re: One for the Irish

Well, I don't know if your Irish genes will help you get the Rubberbandits comedy stylings or not, as it's pretty Irish based comedy, but they're gigging in London, so maybe it has a wider appeal. Alls I knows is that I think they're gas, and the fact that they drive a Capri only adds to the appeal....

Dash Light Improvement

It's been mentioned casually by a few people here, so I took the advice and removed the less-than-useless blue shrouds around the lightbulbs on the dash illumination. My god, the improvement is ridiculous. I highly recommend it. It's not too difficult, just a bit fiddly with screws and taking the sp...

One for the Irish

Any other Irish folks on here? You might know these feckless rogues from RTE, seems they have a Capri with a (photoshopped) Hash-4-Life reg plate!

Re: Buzzer

The only problem with this circuit may be that the buzzer goes on when the passenger door is open
I think I can live with that.

Diodes sound complimacated. :?

Re: Buzzer

Actually I guess the live needs to live with ignition off
Or does it? Would it not just buzz when the door is open and the lights are on, regardless of power.

How might I be able to do this?

Re: Buzzer

The buzzer is in the relay itself. Does it need a permanent live?

Buzzer

Hi all, can you help me with this. I ordered a warning relay to let me know I've left the lights on, since I flattened the battery twice this week! It arrived today, with wiring instructions. Does this thing plug in directly to some existing part of the car, or do I run new wires from the door switc...

Re: You know it's "Movember"?

A friend of mine is the Irish poster boy for the movement. He's been growing it since last Movember, and is getting sponsored to shave it off.

Here's his mug:

Re: New Capri - New questions!

I've heard of jet engines that have this, a recorder and a noise generator (speaker?) that play back the sound of the jet at a half phase, causing destructive interference and effectively silencing the roar. Or maybe it's in development, but not out yet. I'd have to (not) hear it to believe it mind....

Re: Right of way question

My opinion, and it's only that, an opinion, is that technically B had priority, but was a bollox for pulling out when you were clearly indicating.

He is, as we say in the Irish vernacular, a langer.
