Lo All :D
Had my M.O.T today and failed :(
That's three years in a row.
Two years ago rear fog bulb :oops:
One year ago both front dipped headlight bulbs :oops:
This year both front brake pads below 1.5mm :shock:
One was very close to metal, apparently one holder was seized.
Got new pads and passed :mrgreen:
Cheers ;)

LO All :D
Thought I would post pics of My Lude with the aftermarket front fogs fitted that I bought from Mills :mrgreen:
I got fed up trying to use an oem fog light switch and fitted a toggle with light up function.
It was a bit fidly to make the hole in the blanking plate but worked out OK in the end.
My lude is very dirty at the moment :oops:
Hope You guys like :D

Well done on fitting the fog light switch. It looks really clean, almost oem.
