I doubt police would be interested, civil matter, not exactly easy to do things with Cambridge police from Glasgow, my word against his ( txt messages I have them all ) it would seem have no standing, driver Trevor in his 70s possibly unreliable as he works for the garage .

Re: Dash clock bulbs
Yes , I had some from ebay a couple of years back, there was even a choice of colour. Had to fit the wire ends of the leds into the bulb holders, its a pain getting the polarity right. Must admit the were disappointing, replaced with std bulbs after a couple of weeks.

Re: actual vs mfa mpg
Have now replaced white pressure sender and oil pump and mpg readings now a tad pessimististic but far more realistic than before. So guess oil over pressure throwing the mpg calculation off this would suggest folk getting high ( 40 to 50 ) mpg reading has engine oil over pressure probably due to ...

actual vs mfa mpg
Have a 1.8i scala, mfa ranges from 28 cold about town to a best of 51 after 1/2 hour of 40 to 60 with an ave of 39 for long ( 200 mile + ) motorway drives.
However logging liters in vs miles out gives 31 to 33 regardless . Have been using the 'super' unleaded timing has been set accordingly.

fitting golf rear bench
Hi,
Have aquired a leather rear bench from a mk2 golf, whats the best way to go ?
a) Remove leather and have it fitted to existing bench / back
or
b) Modify move clips on bench to fit scirocco screw points , what to do with back ( hinged to bench rather than body )
What works ? pitfalls ?
