Hey guys, I haven't posted here in ages, but I've come across some things I need help with!
I'm finally fixing all the little faults in mine and my brothers EL GLi's, and have a few questions to ask before I get started, they may be stupid questions but I know shit all about this kinda stuff so I hope someone can help!:
- I have blown a light behind my speedo/tacho in my dash. Before I go pulling out my dash to replace the bulb, can anyone tell me exactly what bulb they use so I can purchase them beforehand?
- Also in my brothers car, the bulbs that light up the gear selected panel next to the gear stick (auto obviously) do not come on when the parks/headlights and turned on, but one small tap on the panel turns the bulb(s) on. What would be causing this? a faulty bulb or wiring?
- Also in my brothers car, his windows are having real trouble (particularly passenger). They become hard to wind up at times, and the passenger one becomes hard to wind up and does not line up with the door, moving to the right (from passengers point of view). Any ideas on what is causing this and possible fixes?
- One last small question (not really interior, but anyway)... My brothers drivers exterior door handle seems to have lost the outer part of the keylock. Would this part be available from a wrecker, or would a whole new door handle need to be bought?
I hope someone can help me, I appreciate any input! Thanks again.
Brendan.
