    GR86 Map lights do not turn themselves off, ever

    Oh, that makes more sense. I was thinking of like the little power banks you use to charge phones and whatnot.

    GR86 Map lights do not turn themselves off, ever

    Sorry...what? You charged the 12v car battery from a USB power bank? What magical devilry is this?

    GR86 Driver Window Click

    I think it might be worse in the cold. It always makes me wince, but it's really quite pronounced at the moment.

    GR86 Driver Window Click

    So you need two to completely get rid of the noise? I was going to put one on each door, even though only my drivers side clicks, just for good measure. If that's not enough I'll put them both on the drives side.

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    I have capitulated - removed my bonnet strut today, and put it in the garage.

    GR86 +1 OTR Derbyshire

    Keep an eye on the bits behind the door handles. After wrapping, one of my doors wouldn't lock. The trim I'd added was interfering with the manual locking rocker switch and causing it to bounce. Fixed easily enough by just trimming that edge so it didn't wrap around, but didn't spot it at first.

    Sold Cusco Front Strut Bar (RHD)

    Managed to find some bubble wrap and brown paper, and Evri delivery sizes are more lenient than I thought. So I'm now offering this at £140 including delivery.

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    I think you might be right, I remember it triggering me a bit because I think it looks better to have the thicker part at the bottom. But I followed the crowd and put them "upside down". Can't see it making a practical difference though.

    GR86 Driver Window Click

    Yeah that's thanks to @ZN8 who contacted them and then kindly did a group by for some of us. Truly, he is the hero Gotham needs, but not the one it deserves, or the other way around, idk.

    GR86 Driver Window Click

    A couple more owners on the US forum have received the washers and fitted them now and report it's sorted the issue, so hopefully this is a conclusive fix. Hope ours arrive soon, I went out this morning and the crack as the window dropped made me wince, it sounds like something is going to snap...

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    I have the AliExpress struts, but I left the bonnet support in! Not entirely sure why, perhaps I should take it off. But then I'd only end up losing it.

    Sold Cusco Front Strut Bar (RHD)

    Cusco front strut bar with integrated brake cylinder brace. Used but excellent condition...purchased new from Fensport about a year ago. Selling as this is designed to fit with the OEM firewall V-braces, and I've recently changed those so this no longer fits. Although not very heavy it's a bit...

    GR86 Reducing Front End Noise

    Good shout. Especially as import fees were about 40 quid. But also bear in mind they are built to order, which took about a month.

    GR86 Reducing Front End Noise

    Drove to work today and pretty sure there is a noticeable difference. In fact, as I was coming along the M25 and keeping my ears peeled, I hit a section of asphalt where I immediately noticed a resonance coming from the front wheels. I didn't notice it on yesterday's drive when I was also trying...

    GR86 Driver Window Click

    Ansix Auto have posted that they've obtained a lot of these washer and will supply them FoC if you're ordering other stuff from them. They're US based, so obviously not worth ordering from them just to get a free washer, but just on the off chance anyone is buying anything from them and wants to...

    GR86 Sard GT1 Front splitter

    I quite like that, although it's perhaps a bit too prominent...but I think maybe a matching side skirt would help balance it nicely. I've thought about adding a front splitter, but I'd be constantly worried about smashing it, especially as the entrance to my office car park is up a fairly sharp...

    GR86 Reducing Front End Noise

    I had to go into the office today, which meant longer on the motorway and a chance to drive some roads that I know are a bit rough in places. Think I can be a bit more conclusive and say that there is an improvement. The car is quieter on the motorway; there's less hum coming from the firewall...

    GR86 Reducing Front End Noise

    Arrived and fitted this morning. It's perhaps a bit early to tell conclusively (only took a 10 minute drive up the dual carriageway and back), but I do sense that they might have reduced cabin noise a little. I never took any proper measurements, and for full disclosure, I don't think I was...
