These NGKs have been in my Bora for only 20,000k's or so but the car has some small misses under load. I took the plugs out to blast the carbon off with a torch but they were in pretty good nic and didn't need to be blasted. I gave them a little blast but then I noticed that some plugs are missing their tips which makes the gap bigger. In my humble opinion this could be what is causing the miss. What do you think?

Review: Mothers NuLens™ Headlight Renewal Kit

This is a pic from last night showing the change in beam colour over the driver's side. -
Review: Mothers NuLens™ Headlight Renewal Kit European cars seem to struggle with maintaining high levels of headlight condition. While Japanese cars seem to suffer from fading/clouding, Euro's get pitting and a rough coating over them. We have 2 European cars and they've both fallen victim to this pitting and coating. I bought the Mothers NuLens™ Headlight Renewal Kit to try to clean up the headlights on my wife's 2007 Volkswagen Passat. Here's some pics of the headlight before I started. You can see just how bad the pitting and scratches are. So, the process is very simple; tape up your paintwork I put a hose on very low just dribbling over the headlight to keep it wet. Sand with the supplied 800 grit pad (you'll see in the below pics I needed to do this longer) When you have a uniform haze and it feels smooth, sand with the 1500 grit pad When the haze is uniform again, dry the light and Sand with the 3000 grit foam pad. Lastly, use the Powerball and polish to polish the headlight. So, after about 20 mins, the result is amazing. You can see that some scratches still exist, I can't feel these so I missed them on the 800 grit stage. I'm planning on redoing the sanding next week to see if I can improve it. But, even without doing that again, it looks (and feels) incredible. I would recommend this kit to anybody who has external defects on their headlights. (A lot of R33's get hazing/clouding on the inside of the headlight.) This is a 5 star product for sure. $40 very well spent.

Hey Sony, Welcome to SAU!

Thanks @Steve85. I saw the JBL ones but they didn't have a transmitter from memory. My question about turning them off is so that we can go back to using the normal volume if i turn them off without going over to the TV. #Laziness.

TV headphones question Ok, so its not music, but I'm asking in here cause it's the closest of all the sub forums to my question. I want to get some wireless TV headphones so I can watch the cricket without hearing Meghan Trainor. I don't want to spend big bucks, under $100 if possible. What should I look for? FM ones seem a little antiquated. I think Bluetooth would be better. My TV is not Bluetooth, so i'd need to get a dongle thing with them. Also, how do I disable BT headphones? Do I need to switch anything on the transmitter or can I just turn the headphones off? Thanks all.
