Hears my A6 avant



[/QUOTE]



So far I've been replacing the bulbs in the headlights fogs and the interior:



The driving/main beam and fog bulbs are 5000-5500k the side lights are led 6000k

The door/puddle lights are led now and i've started on the interior roof lights and the foot well lights are on order :sm4:



I've got to sort the boot lock as the micro switch has stopped working plus sort a dodgy conection on the central roof light and i'm going to refurb the head lights soon , then look at getting some facelift rear lights to up date it a bit then start on the leds again :sm4:

I managed to remove the boot trim today ready to replace the boot lock plus I need to sort the fog light plug out now as it's corroded from water getting in , I fitted these as well my new/old alpine SPS 170A speakers into the front doors :sm4:

I managed to sort the fog light holder out today it was badly corroded so I dismantled it completely and used the dremel to grind away the rust on the plug terminals , it's not pretty but it works again :)

I haven't done much to the car recently from lack of funds but I've got the car booked in for a revo stage one map next week :sm4: plus fitted some spacers to the bonnet
 
I popped into jkm in Portsmouth today to get the revo map but sadly there isn't a code for my ecu because of the age the car, on the good side they diagnosed a few problems that need solving:sm4:
