Headlight bulbs
Hello guys,
This has probably been asked before but I can't find the thread. I've got a 2005 3.0i sport, My dipped beam is really bad they don't light up anything. Any recommendations for bulbs or a fix for this ?
Cheers

Re: Bosch AR24U and AR22U wiper issue
I've just had the exact same problem with mine, halfway down the drivers wiper arm is a little clip/holder for the old type blades, I removed the clip and hey presto the wiper worked perfectly. Hope this helps

Subwoofer
Hello guys,
I was looking on eBay for bits and bobs for my e53 and came across a subwoofer,
Where would this go in the car ? And is it just a case of plugging it in ?
