My mother still lives in London and drives over to Germany a couple of times a year - maybe the solution would be to send them to her London address instead ...petefarrell360 wrote:I've got quite a few GLT alloy rims knocking about now! The rims off that car are still here trabitom99! I've honestly no idea how much shipping would be! Foggy is the international shipping man for the larger items, and he did give me some links to try for cheaper companies.
This isn't really the time of year when its much fun to work on a car, so hold on to them for the time being, but come spring / summer I've got a big shopping list ready
I'm sure I'm "preaching to the converted" but whatever all of you do, don't throw any of these accessories away! Some of those things fitted as standard on many UK 300's are really hard to find over here, including such "common" things like headlamp & rear wash-wipe, alloys and central locking and I 'm not even begun talking about PAS, air con, leather etc. which are totally unheard of. Maybe we got more catalysts than you guys (mine's got one) but all they do is save us a bit of tax and reduce the car's power.
If anyone's got a "Blue leaflet" for central locking or electric windows that'd be great. AFAIK they're still missing from the "Technical Resources" list ...Tourinki wrote:And if there is new holes or wiring needed. I probably can do it. as long as someone tells me what to do to get them working.
