If you have a car with driving lights ( bigger than indicators ) they only come on with high beam .
Don't know about other stuff , some helpful owner will be along to help .

Hi Burnie,

If you have the larger lights like mine (see profile pic) then they come on with full beam as they are driving lights not fog lighs (as in pre face lift Tam's). The switch only operates the rear fogs. Try full beam and they should work OK.

I have had damp behind the seats and it took a while to track down. It was actually the top window seal not being quite long enough and water dripping off the rear end where it joins the roof. I ordered a stip of seal from these guys http://www.sealsdirect.co.uk/bbCMS/shopping.asp?in... and the product code is SRS1905. I also replaced the seal around the roof hoop just to be sure.

Can't help with the mirrors as I have never had to fix them wink

Hope this helps.

Sid' you are a star. This leak has pi**ed me off for about a year and I have not been able to find where it was coming from.

Hi Burnie
i remember your S2000 from a run out prob 2007- (last year was crap wx wise).
Congrats on your new purchase I don't think you'll be disappointed. How old (what year) is your new baby?
There was a facelift around 03 which changed the front lights from fogs to driving lights.
The driving lights are wider spaced & larger diameter than the fogs.
