So yea, had it for almost 2 weeks.
Spec as follows -
19" wheels
navi 950
vxr kit
spare wheel
front and rear sensors
flex ride
bluetooth
TPMS
think it just hasn't got the afl which I had on my last car bt not this. Im missing them badly and have already changed the drl to white smd which then made my main bulbs look yellow, so I've now got a hid kit here waiting to be fitted but have o idea what to do lol,, Had it from london colour on eBay its a 9012 one.
Anyway glad I found this forum as loved rustys guide when i was active over the other forum. So uh yea, thats me lol

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Thanks mate I'm very very happy with it
Yea i seen his guide and if I have to take the bumper off ill need someone to fit them for me instead, I'm no mechanic and know nothing when it comes to cars lol. Changing the drl bulbs was an accomplishment for me haha!
I had these delivered today - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331651038528?_...EBIDX%3AIT
They should be ok right?
Does the bumper still need to come off on the 2015 gtc rusty?

They should be ok mate.
Taking the bumper off and removing the headlights is easy mate no point paying someone.
If you based near me (Bournemouth) then your more than welcome to pop over and I'll help you

Cheers mate would love help to put the hids in lol but swindon is a fair trek from swansea. how much would you charge though mate just out of interest?
already seen all your threads mate thats where i got a lot of my ideas from : Just put hekos on tonight as well they are a nice touch. My pressed pates came today too but need the log book to come back first before they can go on for the code to change them online.
I had a go myself at the hids mate because someone said i won't need to take the bumper off, and the caps are right at the top of my car easy to get too, its just getting the bulbs out seems the awkward bit. i could drill through it and set the wires up etc, but then still wouldn't know where to properly put the ballasts as theres not a lot of room there either.
