    Thumbs up Seat foams and lumbar fitted

    Refurbed the front seats last night with new foams and added lumbar suport to both, money well spent. Only took 2 hrs to do, rated about 1 out of 5 in diffuclty.

    Umm, OK.

    I don't suppose you took phjotos on the way and want to post it as a "how to".

    I'm sure that's what people would like to know
    It's not broken. It's "Carbon Neutral".

    Stu, I'm not going to go on any more trips with you.

    Your 130 - what with new seats, shiny wheels, new intercooler and may I add, a new radio that takes a USB, and not to stop there, I believe the water-tower has gone to a "better place".

    The 130 will be flasher than Michael Jackson's limo

    If I can work out how to compress the photo files , I will add them to the project page.

    There are some good image resizer utilities available, but for the occasional few photos I just open them using MS Paint, then choose Image ==> Stretch/Skew and reduce to 30% or so, and save. If the file size is still too big for what you want just repeat the process.
    A bit clunky, but works on any Windows machine.

    Another quicker way is if you have Outlook installed, choose the photos, right-click and select "Send to email". It will ask you what size you want the photos. Then, when the new email opens, drag the attached resized photos back to where you want them stored. Hope this makes sense

    Makes complete sense to me, but I'd be breaking my Oath if I ever encouraged someone to use Outlook

    Quick question on the retriming on the seats you did, did you use one of the exmoor trim kits and if so where is the best place to get hold of one?
    My drivers seat is in need of some attention in the comfort department.

    Cheers.
