OBC help

Now I swapped the bulb out with one of the bulbs from the instrument dials thinking that it might be a dull bulb but it's still the same. Any other ideas as to wh...

I only intend to replace the old with new. The wheels were on there. They'll stay as I like how it sits on them, but I do have the Original wheels for it, for when the summer arrives.

Re: Time to formally introduce myself

I have no idea what the wheels are. They came on the car and there is nothing on the inside of them to say what they are either. Apart from being the wrong offset. Got the original wheels out in the shed waiting for the parada spec 2's to go on, that are sat next to them.
