Default Working on Chrstine today, plenty of snaps.

While its nice today thought I'd crack on with Christine and get her looking better and fix any problems that needs addressing, she's due for a MOT soon and want her too pass 4 times in the row.

The track rod ends I'm a bit shocked with, there shot too hell and only fitted them in October and now this is the result, what a load of beep, ces can kiss my beep.

Bought these track rod ends off Mat Price and straight away can tell the quality of them are better they will last a lot longer then 4 months, the drop links and anti bushes are all good.

still going too check everything single thing.

Your telling me, the steering had a lot of play, went too investigate and here it was the track rod ends had gone.

Need too do the head lights as well, both xenon bulbs gone, no more full beam anymore, plus the plastic inside has misted too the point you can't see they need cleaning up quite a bit.

What's the best way too clean them and tidy them up a bit?

Time too end the night off, but before I do tho need to make a list of the all the jobs that need to be addressed.

Pad indicator sensor fault.
Xenon bulbs have gone needs replacing.
Steering wheel needs changing and wiper stalks as well.
Driver side door card, door handle and cable needs replacing.
bulbs for indicators need changing as there starting too go out.
Carry out for inspection and check wax oil underneath.
Inspect brike pipes and wire brush then add lubrication and for added protection anker wax.

Time for a Saturday night drink.

Sorting out the head lights next, taken the bulbs out and going too get replacements, one question tho as you put the xenon bulb back in and you slide the silver clips and look it back into place.

The black cover now that goes on the back of the xenon bulb and contacts.
I've tried to too lock it in place, but If I try turn it doesn't budge, I'm worried that I'm going too force it and break it.
