Spot on! For some stuff, my dealership is _considerably_ cheaper than
most
places, and slightly either side of t'internet stuff - like tyres.

£16 for the bulbs! Still not got those plastic backs back onto the
headlamps
though. Is there some sort of knack I'm missing? They've stopped doing
orange / red antifreeze BTW, nowadays it's Lilac...

DON'T DRIVE without the backs, you'll suck dust, crap or, in the rain and
worse, water into there. If you get water in those lamps, you'll end up
needing new ones.

They're seriously fiddly. I spent two hours doing the lad's bulbs :-( but
most people jack the Ka up, take off the wheel and then the wheel arch
liner, and do it in ten minutes!

Oops, forgot to say, the ordinary bulbs were about seven quid each, as I
recall.

Might do that as soon as I get a chance. Preferably when it's not pissing it
down and blowing a gale outside. Or I'll see if I can do it whilst I've got
the car up on lifts on Wednesday.
