    Aircon issues

    Thanks aragorn for your very comprehensive reply. It looks like the only part that is a real pain to replace is the evaporator. The system didn't appear to be leaking before the condenser was punctured so assuming these are not prone to blockage I'd assume that it is probably ok. I'd be...

Hopefully it'll just mate nicely with my...

    Stereo de-coding?

    Hi, Does anyone know if a facelift bonnet will fit a pre-facelift car? and if so what other parts would I need to change? Thanks...
