Before I had a Land Rover I did not have any torque wrenches. Now I have three.
LROCV #1410
soldered replacement micro switch into the spare key fob, bought one of the cheap kits from ebay. very cheap plastic and the button itself not as soft and supple as the original, kept arming without touching it so had to pack the circuit board out a little but will do as a spare.
Soon I will get on with the more urgent jobs, soon.

Yep you guessed the odds were really against me
What happened was no fault of the car or me
While the car was parked at work it got covered with Lime and cement dust from a new sub division across the road from work
Said company paid for 25 cars to be detailed at work
Well my car was one of 5 to get get detailed on thursday and out of the 5 cars 3 ended up like they had been sanded as the paint had no shine what so ever and looked like it had been very lightly sanded
I bailed these guys up on the way out and said im not impressed with the job
They jump straight on the defence saying its a 4wd and been used as such yeah i say im not denying it has scratches but my paint has no shine what so ever
Turns out they clay blocked my car and did not polish it afterwards as it was not part the the contract with the company
My car is no show car as it gets used and abused but my paint was not this bad before they touched it
Turns out these detailers are going to cut and polish my car now out of good will
Wish i good name and shame these detailers as it is a national company but i wont .
I know they only did what was asked of them but hell if you cant do your job to a standard of normal satisfaction dont do it at all as it will come back and bite you on the ass
See Muppet **** happens to me and my car![]()

That's a bummer Chris, but a clay bar with no afterthought is like breaking the eggs but not making the omelette! Poor excuse. I do my own detailing work, it's hard but satisfying.
And today I primed and sprayed my mesh grill, and started pulling apart the wiring for my FyrLyts apart to tidy it up a bit and move the converters into the airflow.
