Intravee & Alpine unit (not mine) - and some other random

[pvr]

Sigh …

 

[Moheddine]

Only taken 24 pages

And a whole lot of useless off-topic shite! I've a strong mind to tell the OP to delete the thread for the sake of everyone else on the forum apart from the handful of people involved in this ramble.

But then I saw who the OP was... :x

We'll get him to change the original title

LOL! Hahaha!

Just got home - thanks for the hospitality PVR

I am now sans-CDV and liking it a lot.

 

[srhutch]

Thanks for a great day chaps, even though nothing was fixed on my car.

Bing is now the CDV removal king, too in one day.

Nice to meet Matt after their 25 page thread :lol:

Thanks yo the host for the coffees and I'll post some pics of the ///M surgery later.

Thanks for the hospitality & the significant (HUGE) help in fitting the intravee, dash cam & the CDV removal Great to meet you guys, really enjoyed the day & chatting with you all.

CDV has made a huge difference in my opinion, feels like I can drive again! Rev matching on the downshift seems much better, as though I was getting my blips correct but the delay on the clutch let them drop too low. Feels so much more relaxing with the slow speed shifts.

Had followed the CPL filter instructions but on reviewing the video had loads of dash reflections. Looking through it manually, I'm guessing 2 o'clock is the right rotation.

Will be spending a while setting up all the intravee settings over the next day or so.

Thanks once again guys!

Matt

I'm glad Paul fixed that bolt - a cable tie would've done it, but would've been a bit of a bodge

I got my storage net... But the four fixing clip/screws are missing. Bloody Stratstone Hull :x

 

[mj2k]

I'm impressed how quickly you managed the second CDV delete, you will no doubt become even more popular at future meets as work spreads!

I wasn't expecting the difference to be so significant, but now feel confident pulling away each time & on the first to second shift

Great skills by Paul getting it back in usable fashion.

Bummer on the storage net mate.

 

[Bing]

Yeah, everyone is out to spoil my weekend. Wee Bing is out at a party this evening - I'm mentally prepared for the call to collect him from A&E, or a police station :roll:

Think you will find that was my idea, just Paul was the spanner monkey :lol:

 

[srhutch]

How are the rattles?

 

[mj2k]

The nav screen reared it's ugly rattle, but think I had pushed my luck in the angle I put it at.

No idea at all on the rest of the car as had the roof down & iPod up loud

Will find out on Tuesday when I have the roof up again - fingers crossed. Am sure if will be fine, you guys gave the impression you know what you are doing!

Apologies for giving Paul the credit for your idea!

Great day everyone - and thanks to PVR for the driveway space, tea & toilets and Matt for shouting lunch

Sorry I had to rush off but we only ended up 15mins late for the viewing... upside is that it looks to be one worth shortlisting

I shot off so quickly, I forgot to leave the sample sprays of BSD for you to try did you manage to get your boot wet to see the beading Steve?

Have to do it again soon - and see if we can make a 30 page thread for it then :lol:

There's a mark on the side of the CPL and a marked point on the camera above/below the lens depending on which way up you have it -, you need to line them up

 

[PerryGunn]

Steve, the name we were struggling to remember was posi-tap, it popped into my head on the way back

 

[srhutch]

That's them.

Just a couple of pics from today from the ///M surgery

I saw the one for below & lined it up - didn't thing to look for a mark on the top.

I used a reflection in the window & turned it looking through myself directly without cam & rotated it until the reflection went; same as when I'm using my proper camera, will see how it gets on.

You will have to remind me of your spray mix & quantities required as down to my last few weeks of detailer. Bang on cue, my Megs final touch spray head also decided it no longer wished to function

I'm in shock Is that Bing I see on his knees? And pretending to be working, getting his hands dirty :!: I've got to go and lye down

I didn't realise he had another wee cry today - he really needs to let go

Oi you, I do some of my best work on my knees

We'll have to ask Cheryl about that :wink:
