Re: R8 binnacle illumination

No problem. You could sell the ones you use on to someone else.

If they are LED, I might be interested.

Re: Cabriolet and Coupe Boot Lids the same?

I have seen a bootlid with the spoiler off a coupe and quite fancy it as its the correct colour.

I'll have to remove the areal and fit a rubber bung though as it will interfere.

As mentioned above, check the plugs, leads, cap.

I'd also check for a vacuum leak by spraying brake cleaner around vac hoses and the intske manifold.

Re: Archive of the old Rimmer Bros Parts Listings?

Agreed, it would be a valuable source.

I'm not a fan of pay walling, but if this info was added to the site, it should be a paid members perk.

Otherwise, buy branded T5 and T6.5 bulbs, such as those made by Osram.

Re: R8 binnacle illumination

Where can I find these please? I’ve been struggling! Also does anyone know of an effective orange filter (paint or sleeve) you can buy to put over it? I had a look on eBay and found these in orange. I will warn you, although the seller lists them as being LED, the illustrations are of conventional ...

Cabriolet and Coupe Boot Lids the same?

As the title suggests, are Cabriolet and Coupe Boot Lids the same?

Rimmer Bros don't do a full part number diagram breakdowns amy more, and when parts are not available, they don't list them so I was unable to cross reference.
