I will keep my eyes open Thumbs Up

Somebody who has an Ipad will be along shortly to tell you how to upload pics but I believe you upload your pictures to Flickr or your favorite host then in your post click on the IMG button and paste the image URL in.

I expect it is the same procedure for putting pictures into a gallery as well.

Failing that email them to me on my home email and I will post them up for you.

Cheers

Hi Guys
Well I went and got the girl some new shoes, decided to go with the Discoverer ST Maxxis 265/65x16 they're brilliant. I would say as quiet as my 235GG but o proper looking tyre and now a nice stance for the truck. Thanks to everyone their comments and also to Lee @ Hill Top Tyres in Ilinster. Also put the new headlamps in but now I'm undecided on changing the bulbs to LED or the Bolt on Bits kit and go the whole hog, any suggestions?

Osram Night breakers - work well with the Wipac Crystal lights Thumbs Up

Run them on the TD5 and had them on the 110, no complaints at all.

Thanks Bob, I've got the upgrade bulbs that everyone on the forum said we're great but I mean the indicators etc. where did you get your snow vent from? Life is one big adventure, that's why we have the vehicle for the journey.

Can't offer any advice on the indicators as I have only run standard.

The snow cowl on the 110 was a metal one from IRB (or Blanchards do them) and was the MOD Wolf type.
On the 90 I have got a plastic version from Mudstuff, does the job well and not worried if it gets damaged off road.

An excellent choice Sir, if I may say so Thumbs Up
I still love looking at mine as much as I do riding on them Wink Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...

Thanks for all your help Guys. I've ordered the full LED Light upgrade kit, snow vent and power vent instead of a snorkel this time because of what I read from Pete at BAS. It should all be through by Thursday so I can't wait, also having the windows tinted fingers crossed on Thursday aswell so after all that I'll be skint but able to look out my window at an awesome 90. Then I think Sunday will be spent cleaning and polishing. What is the consensus of a Union Jack vinyl in black/grey on the inner part of the bonnet? Patriotic and all that Thumbs Up Life is one big adventure, that's why we have the vehicle for the journey.

Is that the LED kit from Killer? If so, has he sorted the brake lights etc. yet? Tell someone you love them today because life is short.

Hi ZeDefender
No I have got these from Bolt on Bits, new LED interior lights arrived today and what a major difference. Well worth the £8. Life is one big adventure, that's why we have the vehicle for the journey.

Not yet, but I should have another tasty one this week Razz


Would that be the rather nice silver HT with black roof and arches parked down the side I have just seen ?

If it is I suggest you move it quickly before those Santorini wheel arches vanish, they will look very nice on a Firenze red 90 with a black roof Whistle
