    Default Finally got my car at last

    Collected my Signum V6 on wednesday evening

    even my old man seemed quite impressed with it.........and believe me...... thats better than a very good comment from Clarkson

    I also had my TA arrive today so i spent 30 mins fitting the wiring kit and plugged it in................nice !!

    I do have a question regarding the TA kit though, i know it just hooks under the colletts in the centre seat, but i had to physically force mine to fit into the slots in the centre seat, it looked like it needed to be about 2mm wider to slot in without breaking into a sweat. also the seatbelt clips which hide in the centre seat wouldnt allow the kit to seat properly, so ive turned them 90 degrees and they fit in out of harms way, the kit was out of a late 2003 Signum and mine is an early 2004 model so the kit should be a perfect fit, are they all this tight???

    also found out tonight that when the rain sensitive wipers are active, the rear comes on automatically when i reverse........very nice touch
