Stevie Fay (PHer 30121980) very kindly gave me some new tips for the 996 TT yesterday. No offence Steve, not wanting to sound ungrateful or anything, but I've changed one over and to be honest I think I prefer the standard oval ones. What do people think? Is it just me?

Before:


After:


I've only done one side because the original ones are proving to be a nightmare to get off - I ended up shearing the bolt on this one so it's going to have to be drilled/taped before that can go back on! rolleyes

Singles for me too the twins look a bit fake. Might just be the light but the exit size looks smaller with the twins if you get what I mean. confused

1) Found a large deep scratch on me passenger side door late last night - ouch, thats gonna hurt(i was very close to a few trees/bushes and anything else near the side of the road on the run out - nothing too daft though..i have my license to think about)

2) Loud constant knocking noise coming from front end, gets louder and worse when I put foot down and also when i brake.

Thats about it for now..........our lass ended up with a handbag, ear rings, pair of shoes and new cussions for living room and a throw - all in the sale of course and all bargains of the century!

all the best lads

Kept to speed limit at all times through th run out..by bad luck took a wrong turning and ended up nearly home in durham.

Knocking noise was`nt there when i drove home, but this morning was doing my head in.

The scratch - was probably poked by a woken up tree on the run out..nothing that cant be put right..a little bit worried about front end though...some one says it could be one of the arms???

Thanks again for the pics c2look ...i posted them on here also mate

i love that 964 in guards red, had a 997 c2s in guards red and used to love the colour on a sunny day - cant beat it - classy as

all the best lads

wont be going anywhere tonight as our lass has `day out` planned the morra, cant wait
