Default Beer for detango

No-one took me up on the offer before, and now the garage don't want to tackle it.

Wanting some help de-tango my headlights, by someone who's done it before.

Free tea & biscuits + a crate of beer or whisky Surely that's tempting

Gotta be worth a few hours

ARE YOU TRYING TO SCARE HIM?

As you say, it is easy but phrases like these tend to set off alarm bells in the not-so-experienced Scooby modder.

try it M8, its fairly easy if you take your time to do it right!

I hear what your saying WUZ, but all its take is a 2 min distraction while the lights are in the oven and you have Headlight Pie!
I know someone who was doing this, the phone went and he was left with headlight pie!

If there's some links that can be provided that would be grand.

I have 1/2 at home in the favs, but they might not be the SBS guide.

Hi Gaz,

I'm going to do mine - have you got the relevant bulbs yet? If so, where from?

Don't be to concerned about it, I've done it to my BM, fitting angel eyes - not so hard if you're patient!

Could sort out doing it to both cars at same time if you're up for it!

You're on Bazza!!! See PM

I got the Philips Silvertec (i think - bought them maybe 6m ago!!) from PowerBulbs.com i think it was.

I also got the Philips +30% Main and Phillips V.Plus +50% Dipped. They made a massive difference. People commented on the distance it gets. Well chuffed, as the standard were pants.
