Title: F Body becomes a Teenager.
Post by: F Body on November 15, 2013, 10:51:58 AM
Yep the old Gal will be officially 13 years old tomorrow, she was born on Tuesday 16th November 1999 (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/cool.gif)

Some pictures taken this morning outside the Bunsfield Fuel Depot which seemed a little ironic :

This gives me a chance to ask you a question I'd forgotten to ask. Daves one is suffering from some really bad fogged up lights, got any tips?

Well lets start with the basic fact that Chevrolet are completely unable to make any exterior light unit water tight (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/rtfm.gif)

So what you need to do is add some drain holes at the bottom, the rear lens are quite easy to get out, two thumb screws under the carpet in the boot. To remove the offside R/H one you will need to loose the spare wheel and tip inwards into the trunk.

NB : Don't drop it into the spare wheel well otherwise it's a real pain in the ass !

Also tape a large cloth on each side of the bumper with insulation tape, because once th lens are out there is no where to rest, or each of the five bulbs you have to remove (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/wink.gif)

Ahh, my use of fogged is incorrect, I mean as in the lense itself has gone hazy/yellowy.

Something about early uses of polycarbonate and UV causes This.

Well I thought I could (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/chiny.gif)

Born in 1999 means that it would be one years old in 2000,

Therefore 10 years old in 2010......................

So 13 years old in 2013 (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/dontknow.gif)

Err no,

1 + 10 + 3 = ???

The worrying thing is that it took 8 posts from 5 (or 6 if you include Mart posting again) of the rest of us happily replying before Rob pointed out the amusing Maths Fail (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/rtfm.gif) (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/tongue.gif)
