Russ, Jon slightly off topic Will the Adamesh boxes on mine fit an 'R' if I also go for it? I dropped the hint yesterday and SWMBO is NOT a happy bunny Regards Steve

Headlamp restoration on S-Type R
Great job on the lights, must have been quite scary the idea of using sandpaper on clear plastic! did you use much pressure on the drill, or just basically the weight of the drill? and thanks for doing the before and after pics

OMG! is that the original? That's shocking I'm not surprised she was struggling Jon I don't remember you mentioning it but have you changed your plugs? If that's an example of the care she has received I'd want to have a look Steve

Hi Paul Hopefully I understand your problem correctly. have a look at your printer settings, you maybe able to reduce to A5 which I think is the size your aiming for. With regard to PDF's you maybe able to open with windows 'Paint ' which I think will allow you to re-size the image. you copy the PDF (if memory serves) paste to word, left click the image to highlight it then right click, hopefully it will give you the option to open or save as a paint image if I get chance at work I'll have a go for you regards Steve

I know you will not have had to much time to get accustomed to the 'Feel' of her, but any noticeable effect on the drivability of the car? prior to cleaning the MAF e.g. lack lustre / less responsive etc

Jon Just by chance, will you be doing before and after photos On the lenses ? oh and just as an aside, I did the 'compare the market' thing for an 'R' cheapest £805 dearest 3.5k! A-plan wouldn't quote to early, and I haven't actually identified a particular car yet, it must be the London postcode that's bumping up the cost so much

Hi John Just trying to be helpful, but the first thing I would say, is do not drive the car! you initial post seems to suggests you are, unless you have her up on stands, if so my apologies if you are driving, I would strongly advise you get her off the road, until you or someone has sorted the problem Regards Steve

Nice write up Jon just out of curiosity I might get an insurance quote, making sure I'm sitting down at the time! As you say early days, I guess no regrets so far, But if you had to, could you choose between the Impreza and the STR? Sounds like two very different beasts Steve

Alarm sensitivity
Cheers Peter i know nothing about them (there's a surprise!) but I guess they have a limitation on how big the memory is, and I guess they would slaughter the battery? by the way just as an aside, the last two replies you have made have not popped up on the 'Alarm bell' icon at the top of the page, just thought I would let you know Regards Steve
