Stu_B Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Hi just registered - posted an intro in the newbies section, as promised some pics of my 2dr 'tina, and you can just see my mate Rich's 1300e! Apologies for the Neon light - previous owner fitted it & i've not yet removed it - it's wired straight in so comes on with headlamps!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perry Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 that looks cool i thought blue lights were illegal ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu_B Posted December 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Dunno - they probably are - its just a strip with 5 LED's on it but it's pointed upwards so reflects off the chrome grill slats - it doesn't look like that in the flesh, just cos of long exposure on the camera, it's comin off soon though. the wing mirror is gonna be black & i'm gonna lose the passenger one, gotta source some springs 'n' dampers from somewhere, also want some kind of strut brace to stiffen it. Looking for some slotmags for it as well, i really like the wheels on it but they're just not wide enough! It's very different to my capri, and although it looks tatty it's actually very sound for a 33 yr old car - £400 with 10 mnths MOT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilux Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 blue lights are fine as long as they are static, I.E. not flashing. lorry drivers had this one out in court and won, hence the number of trucks with blue led's covering them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8ian Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 You can get lowered springs for the mk3 at Rally Design, I think, alternativly have an ask here, http://buysellcortina.co.uk/forums/inde ... /index.php Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
