    disco sub again!

    The only wires from the head unit direct to the sub are the red and black pair in a single plug (on the original unit) The supply must be picked up somewhere else in the loom. I just fitted mine as per previous discussion but so far have no output.

    Discovery Tailgate Lock Problem

    Ok success but what a job! I think I preferred changine the head gasket! The instructions were vague and Mr Haynes not much help. I thought the spring was located in the outside catch assemble but it was in the bit on the latch. Anyway all done now and oily fingers.

    No worries, I reckon I can cut the hole for the sub. In fact if the sub is no good then I wont bother fitting it so I'll order one with holes for door catch and handle only then in the meantime if I manage to get the sub working then I can cut the hole myself.

    sensible fuel discussions (no god complex persons allowed)

    the thing is you need power to seperate h20 into its component parts. DC power and quite a lot. The extra power needed to generate will knock out any prospective savings overall. JMHO

    stupid forecourt compressors

    I've been to the tyre services 3 times and paid for puncture repairs. The last time they checked the wheel concerned and assured me there was nothing wrong with it. I still have to blow it up 8psi/wk. which is a pita to say the least. I might try that or the other stuff 'tyre weld' if I can get...

    Heated Seat Broken

    You could get your front seat passenger to sit on it, that way the pizza stays warm and so does the passengers bottom.
