    For the horns just splice into the existing wiring for the original horn and then heat shrink the connections to avoid corrosion. I like what you have done with the car I'll post up an image of my DLRs however I opted to connect to sidelights but plan in the spring to rewire and have them as...

    I think you will find that is only a heat shield the manifold would be covered by the shield. As for type of paint ceramic based paints are good for such items but I'll allow Ed to confirm what he used on his and how well it is doing after all this time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Syv's N16 2.2 dCi daily-project

    I can see your point as I have a boosted petrol motor pushing 345+bhp and my slightly modified DCi also and would o be without the dci nope as the economy and power from upgrades is always welcome along with that 6th gear on a run.

    V-Spec we know about the 2jr upgrade but we found the issue and looked for a locally sourced option to avoid import costs and delays. Hence finding these testing them and posting up. It's a shame 2jr didn't advise all those with these of the issue when they found out but ours are as strong if...
