Yeah I'll just remove mine also mate,some people say it works as insulation but never hear people who run the box complain about issues.

I had just the box on my last one and it was sound, think I got a few quid for the fabric case on ebay as well haha
Much better now with the new battery in, next job front passenger door lock... it never ends!

Also caught my TRC front splitter on a kerb [:@] will assess damage in the morning :cry:

Technically not today but last Wednesday my car went in for chain rattle and rattles between revs. Turns out today it's getting a new chain and turbo! In the meantime I'm enjoying putting miles on a city go Monte Carlo instead.

Collected mine from the p.o this morning, I might try and add a little colour to the lid......

Did you remove the battery to install it ?

Yes, but I was replacing the battery at the same time. I think it would be awkward to fit without removing the battery

Too true, few weeks back the other half hit a kerb and kerbed one of my alloys...... Poor girl came home in tears! I thought something was seriously wrong!:rofl:

Few years ago i probably would have gone nuts, now i'm thankful that nobody is hurt



On a separate note, i finally got my TRC rear diffuser this morning and fitted with it.... Well happy :D

It's true, there is no point getting angry especially at loved ones. My wife rolled into the car in front in traffic once, no harm done or damage but 2 years later the scum in the other car claimed £6500 in compensation. Insurance fought it off but eventually paid out.

At no point did I feel any anger towards to missus, these things happen. The anger was reserved the claimants but again, it was wasted energy.

This is why all our insurance,s are sky high with companys and individuals who want a quick buck, hopefully one day this will all stop

Nice job on the bumper! Was it expensive to do? I have a deep door ding to sort
