anyone got a link to the EML327 on eBay that actually works? i Brought one a while ago and it just didn't work lol
Quite straightforward really. I did it quite a while ago, it replaces the cigarette lighter and I used the power and illumination from it. The button then goes to a relay with a good power lead running to the starter motor wire. Still use the key as normal or show off to your mates with the button!!!!! Pretty pointless yes I know!!!
Yeh any of the cheap kits on ebay does the job. The black box is the relay. You will love this mod (for a week or so)Understand lol,
Looking on eBay and the ones they have have a small black box with it?
Would that be right or just the wires?
May have to YouTube
Ordered... Cheers, these can tell you things the onboard computer cant so i suppose it will come in handy all the time!
I paid 2.99 for my app rather than a free one as it gives you a lot more of the eml327 features
Anyone know of a trustworthy one of these bluetooth code readers that is compatible with iPhone?

Play store app (that's where I get my apps from) then torque pro. I'll see if a link will work..
The key still works normally but to use the button, turn the ignition on and press the button (it really is just a bit of fun to be honest) but if you stall the car you can just press the start button rather than having to turn the ignition off and back on. Cheap mods
are the best haha!!!!
Ah right, sorry I'm not an i phone user so can't help there. Samsung for texting, apple for eating
Heheh! I'm sorted, I think. I've got a ELM327 on way from eBay, and have downloaded an iOS compatible app.Ah right, sorry I'm not an i phone user so can't help there. Samsung for texting, apple for eating

Be careful with the cheap wifi adapters, they'll run your battery flat if you leave them plugged in and don't use the car for 2-3 days.
Thanks for the tip. It's probably not something I'll leave plugged in. More likely I'll use it from time to time.

I think you'll find I described the thread as affordable not cheap
Apologies
Haha
I'm looking at the cheap ones in the affordable thread
Just managed to install LED DRLs today, bulbs along with resistors are a very cheap mod and I think really update the look from the yellow looking old DRL bulbs. All bought off eBay. I followed Nick's car blog DIY. Very limited space to move on the drivers side as the rad pipe gets in the way but manageable with smallish hands.

reference heated washer jets...
Read somewhere can't remember where! That replacing heated jets with afore mentioned upgrades may require existing loom to be modified (lengthened) to accommodate newer upgraded ones. Is this true?
Was going to order mine tommorow but this may put me off the idea.
