hello good evening and welcome!

welcome! hope you have fun here!

i've got xenons on my omega elite and standard bulbs on my cav cdx and you really notice the difference. the xenons on the omega are incredible, the pure light and the amount of it is really something else. you might be able to make them out in the pic below. i'd like to know where i can get a set o...

ok so i've been doing some investigation and heres the upshot; you cant start the car without immobiliser fob unless you bypass immobiliser. however, there IS a way of adding new keyfob and pairing it the existing one quite easily: This is for the CDX model You must have at least one working fob. A ...

impressive stuff, keep up the good work!

incidentally how much did you pay for your kit to be fitted by a bodyshop?

Unfortunately that'll be an after market kit most likely and won't have anything to do with the key at all. Only thing you can do is contact the kit's manufacturer and give them the serial number and see if they can get the fob coded for you that way. this bosch unit was fitted to cav cdx's '94 / '...

its simple enough but measure plenty of times and use some quality adhesive, they are all shaped anyway so you wont have the hassle of making them fit hmmn... it might be simple but with absolutely no prior knowledge of this kind of thing i really dont know how to go about sticking the door panels ...

good to see another localish member to me!

cheers, i'm sure our paths will cross soon enough

the problem is that i dont seem able to turn off the immobiliser with the key alone. its the standard bosch fit, but unless im missing some trick or another i can only turn off the immobiliser with the key fob is there another way of switching it off?

gsi kit arrived today (still on lookout for 266 colour front bumper) and got some vectra door handles the same colour too. fitted a half decent stereo as the existing head unit had bust too. will take some pics before i get to work though, a 'before and after' affair!! am impressed with the motor th...

Yaaaaaaaaaaahoooooooooooooooooooooooooo welcome to cav ownership again hun :mrgreen: get them pics up asap :mrgreen: not 'again'; this is my first cav!!!! had an astra merit, the omega elite, and grew up in a family of vauxhall owners (mk2 cavs, viceroy, astras, belmonts, corsa, etc) but for some r...

got the cav but only have one keyfob for immobiliser. its the standard fit, and its a bosch rk113 unit, same as in pic below. these keyfobs were also used on ford models, probes and the like, but the model was rk112 there. they look identical in every way and i wondered if one can be used/programmed...

picked her up yesterday. black cdx 2.5i 24v V6 L-reg, c25xe engine with red lid, full leather, full electrics, every option ticked, powerflow stainless system, interior immaculate, leather looks like its never been sat in apart from slight wear on drivers bolster, irmscher boot spoiler, koni adjusta...

They tend to be heavy and any less you manage to pull them out if you hit anything plus it stops all the weight being on one clip

ok so i'll bank on a pack of four per mudflap. thanks for the advice

i'd be up for this at some point, im in the cambridgeshire area but spend a lot of time in and around north herts etc. of course i need to take it one step at a time and actually get my cav first (tomorrow!!! whoohoo!!) but yeah sounds like a plan. we have regional meets over at www.omegaowners.com ...

drilling flaps into the car is a bad idea, they will just let in water to the pannel gaps and it will rust out in time There are clamp type mounts that are a lot easier on the bodywork id get some of those http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Mudflap-clamps-clips-fittings-U-C-brackets-mud-flap_W0QQitemZ3202894834...

ah yes thanks for that, i seem to recall seeing something similar on one of my family's cars... i'll definitely use those instead. hopefully they wont fall off!
