[Jamie84]

The heating vent next to light switches ,Can these be replaced easy enough ? Mines has snapped somehow now it wont sit right when closed.

Did you ever get an answer to this, I have the same problem on both sides of the car, also do you know what other car the vents are common to I'm having trouble finding the parts.

Easy peasy.

Screw on the side sill beside where your elbow would go.. Take that out.

Get allen key and take the two bolts below the speakers out then the two along the top.

Pull forward - d/c everything from behind then once off take a screwdriver wedge in the back of the vents, and they pop right off

Oh and they are the same vents used on Lothian Buses - if that helps at all

I've heard they are the same as Rolls Royce Silver Cloud (or some other old Roller )

I would have thought the Rolls Royce ones were made of some almost extinct animals teeth.

saying that he has been throwing stacks of cash at his car recently.

[meatball]

Does he need to see a Dr?
He says its genetic!
Is his car almost transformed?
Do you still have the exige or has it been replaced yet (and with what)?

Got almost all the parts for the transformation, car is at Dans sorting an oil leak just now for the DP tour then it will be back at dans for the panel swap and paint etc on the way back.

Ive still got the exige, only down about 400 miles in 3 months though

There is a difference between being a delboy and a pikey

£17 for a vent seems fine to me- I have been buying a pile of bits in the last week and found some comedy prices ; the shiny plastic bits that finish off the engine bay on the s1 exige - £440+vat please.

[meatball]

....bet you didn't pay that though!
hehe will see if he bites!

Of course not, Nizzy offered to make some out of some empty cans of Tennents, a couple of balloons, and a few rolled up copies of the Sun
