  Invisible parking sensors fitted. Pics and vid.
Posted by: Jj0063 - 9:th-Jun-2015, 20:04:21 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (10)

So today my 'invisible' parking sensors arrived & I got straight to work when I got home tonight. Thanks to the how to on here it was so simple.



So the great thing about these is that they're invisible, no drilling, so easy to fit and easy to remove if they stop working or you want to remove them. Its a case of wiring the same as the how to, then cleaning the back of the bumper, sticking the sensor strip on and connecting the spade connector to the loom it comes with.




They are great, and a bargain too at £10.99

Here's a vid, they obviously work better with a wall behind the car rather than my legs!

  Club Meet
Posted by: Tonto - 8:th-Jun-2015, 23:35:48 - Forum: Club meets all Regions - Replies (15)

I've been looking through some older posts about meets and a lot of our members seem to be based down south, well south to me ha. I'd love to suggest a meet around Yorkshire as its close to me but I gather that would be a canny distance for some people. So as I saw in one post was a meet at the Santa Pod strip on a RWYB day. This could easily be doubled up as a odd jobs day as well if people wanted. I'm assuming we wouldn't have trouble from officials if we done things where we parked if not disturbing anyone else.

So how does Saturday 15th August 2015 sound? http://www.rwyb.co.uk/index.php

It's £10 admission and £25 to sign on to race. 

If anyone is interested please post and let us know as soon as possible. 
It is 225 miles each way for me so hopefully a lot will turn out as I'm still to meet everyone in person. 

Alternatively I've seen the odd jobs meet in Leeds, if anyone is up for that, that would be perfect too. If we go for this option we will sort a place to meet where we won't be a nuisance to anyone and can get all cars parked nicely. Personally this option would be best for me but I'd still love the RWYB day out too.

  Fitting visible exhaust tip
Posted by: Jj0063 - 8:th-Jun-2015, 21:29:24 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (33)

Hi all

I'm SURE I saw a post on how to fit a visible exhaust tip to the J by just cutting the splitter & bolting an eBay tip on.

May have been @tucpal ?

I can't remember if you need to angle grind the downturn off or not, I'm hoping I can do it without welding as I have everything but a welder!

If there's no how to, can anyone help with what needs to be done? 

Cheers
Jordan

Hey all,

Can anyone shed some light and let me know if this remap looks any good, I know it says Insignia but it is for the same engine as my J.

Did anybody go? I've not been since 2009 and wanted to go but sadly was working today.

Saw a few Astra G's both to and from work on the M1 which did look nice I must admit. Took me back to when I had my coupe... So much has changed on the Astra since then!

  High beam rear view mirror
Posted by: Rusty2009 - 6:th-Jun-2015, 10:13:42 - Forum: Parts for sale - No Replies

Selling my HighBeam auto dimming rear-view mirror part number 13369365, will also come with the mirror covers.

One of the covers has had one of the little grills cut (this was for my dash cam) but it's not really noticeable.

I'm looking for £120 posted paid as gift, the mirror alone costs £400+ from VX.
