Hey guys,

i have driven my V at most total 30mins night driving since i took delivery 2mths ago and already globe is gone! Do i brace myself at facing an electrical type problem? Or could it be simply cheap and nasty bulb used for compliance?

probably just bulb... halogen bulb can sometimes last the lifetime of a turtle and some last the lifetime of a fly. just the luck of the draw really...

Haha thats a great analogy, thanks mate! Just ordered a pair of philips x-treme power, so no night driving for a week or so and then the FUN task of changing globes without front bumper removal :)

Put my new bulbs in yesterday and they are fantastic...wow what a difference!

Not the handiest of people but i can hold my own, took little over an hour to do using the wheel and wheel guard removal technique. Hardest part was not having much room to manouvere.

    • And that's a massive problem, because deadshits will deadshit and give you false details. At least in these days of mobile cameraphones, it is trivial to take photos of any ID they are carrying at the same time as the 300 photo extensive documentation of the state of the vehicles that I recommend even for minor incidents. And you get photos of the person's face, any visible tatoos, etc etc, while you're at it. Then you try to avoid mentioning that you're fully capable of making explosives of various power levels and will wreck their shit if you are forced to hunt them down.
    • No, I don't remember the exact reasoning (was 20 years ago!) but the cops didn't end up supplying it to us either. Actually my mother went through a similar thing recently where she was hit when stationary, flustered and didn't get address (she got plate details, name, phone and insurance company, but not address). Person who hit her blocked her number and their insurance company (naturally) would not provide any details. Her insurance company also required her to pay the at fault premium because she did not have the address, cops did not help as it is a minor civil matter (they said their only course was if the other driver had left the scene of the accident without providing any details). She only ended up getting that refunded because they happened to be insured with Suncorp and she was with APIA so same company owners. For some reason the address is critical in insurance companies recovering money from the at fault party
    • If you're driving something like an R32 through to R34, no chance of meeting Euro4. Euro4 came out in 2006, and car manufacturers back then were complaining how hard it would be to meet those regulations. Not a chance a vehicle 10 years earlier is going to be compliant.
    • I presume it would take more than just slapping a big modern catalyst on the exhaust? It's interesting though, looking at the old sales brochures and listings it does not mention anything about emissions. No one cared.
    • Yeh nice, looks like their part of keep it reet? Will have to swing past. I'd much prefer someone actually look at my car and custom make a part, then get a generic part online and hope it works.
