STAR TREK!! Love it. Although I'm past the days of blue lights in my car, it does look awesome in that photo.

Cheers dude, haha with all those LED's you used to have i'm not surprised, just the photos gave me a headache

Just thought id add a photo of my new heater panel lit up :D only from a 9v battery so far though, it will go in the car when i finally change the dash over, so probably early next year now. http://i1032.photobucket.com/albums/a401/Metallicav/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps8375e925.jpg The glow at the bo...

I got my speedo and clock bulbs from there, they didn't have any prices listed did you get the window switches from there as well? If you don't mins me asking how much did they do them for?

Sell me your Diesel Cav. Saloon :love Haha thought you would :lol: exactly why I wanted it in the first place. It's not finished but with what I have in parts, I actually don't think I'll ever get rid unless it's completely unrepairable then she'd go to the scrapyard in the sky... Definitely after ...

Yeah that's sorta what I was expecting due to all the water in the sound deadening, so glad it isn't

After putting the removal of the drivers sound deadening off for ages, I got it done Monday and was happy with what I found underneath it and I was already happy with the other side especially since it seems it had been that way for quite awhile Drivers http://i1032.photobucket.com/albums/a401/Metal...

Small update, I've sorted the heater panel out, bought one instead looks a good job, with good illumination will upload a photo when it arrives

Cheers troy, I had previously searched for the way to work it out but couldn't find anywhere that explained it clearly
I'm sure I've got a full set of switches to work with just need a small tip for my soldering iron and correct LEDs and resistors

Some good tips may also help me if I decide to go for a Sri lip for the L, has crossed my mind...

Temp sensor wires... Take out glove box, up and to left is a big rubber gromet... Get some garden wire or wire coat hanger and carefully push it through, tape wires to coat hanger and pull trough :) Route it whatever way makes you happy under the bonnet :) Cheers Hayward its finished now, I routed ...

Yeah I've noticed this recently as well. Robsey, yeah that's strange it being 2p dearer our way (Ellesmere Port being about 15mins away from me)

There is a new and genuine one on eBay at the moment: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vauxhall-Cava ... 27ef8f4982 If not, I have a pre facelift bonnet that I don't need. It was on my LS until this summer when I replaced it with the correct facelift one. It's in the wrong colour of course but you can hav...

I've already got one on the TD, but my L the switches are going in doesn't have front fogs

Had a look before but no luck with the outside temp, job for early Saturday I think. An unknown Vauxhall badge came up on eBay, thought to be the bonnet badge I've been looking for, so I prised the badge from my bonnet for the part no. unfortunately it wasn't the right one Looks like I'll have to gl...

If there's enough light I'll try again when I get in

Yeah i've decided to stick with standard bulbs in the switches for now, ordered my blue LED's for speedo and clock though :) Window switches I'll get some LED's and resistors to play with my spare 2 way switch, Heater panel I'll have a go at when I've thought through multiple options, while thinking...

Yeah I found a set of flattop LEDs with resistors soldered and heat shrunk on I think I'll use
Do the heated switches and surround you have got LED's in? I might be getting the surround/switches with the leather but I might have to have LEDs

I had a look for a place to route the temp sensor tonight but couldn't find anywhere that could go to the engine bay... is that where it's supposed to go?
Where abouts have people routed theirs or where the factory ones are routed? Really want to get this completed

To stop myself going off asking a page of questions on my Wip Need some help on how others have done this, such as resistor values and the best way to fit it all in them, dissasbly I think I've got covered. The items I'll be doing are Dash switches rear fogs etc. blue illumination and white in the o...

Yeah I have thought about that, been thinking about doing it and bought a spare panel before I even had the TD, so about 7 months I just keeping putting it off got it disassembled but it's a bit battered but I've got another 2 spares to work with

I did forget to compensate for the fact I'm going to take the ground... ....along with illumination so the heater panel will only come on with the lights... Going to split the dimmer circuit wire I'm routing for the clock to the heater panel, then i can take the ground from the original bulb circui...

Didn't do to bad today, didn't have as much time as I thought/would liked to have but did have a trip to the breakers, didn't have any Vectra's with illuminated sun visors unfortunately or standard map interior lights but I did find one with space for a mic and alarm sensors in a mk4 astra that will...

Looks like it's one of those nights where my brains full of cav thoughts/ideas... :roll: really got to stop myself coming on here after about 10:30 :lol: Just been thinking about the little rectangular push fit type clips that are used for the sunroof facia and b pillar trims, can you buy these from...

There's this white SRi on eBay that looks really nice, apart from the arches but I've seen a lot worse http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.vi ... 1421613405 I don't think that ones to bad either, change the wheels, rear lights and front indicators and you've got a nice cav, like the idea of white f...
