Hi
I have got a passenger side headlight from my lovely Citroen zx estate
Which I unfortunately rolled some years ago on an iced up stretch of
Road.
Would there be anybody interested in buying this?
Reasonable offer please.
Regards

So we have a drip .... 🤪 opened up the car a few days ago to be greeted by a puddle both sides in the foot wells , it is the window screen rubber in two places and the drip can be free flowing . I have a new cover and have been running now 2 dehumidifiers. This morning was a pleasant surprise the carpets have dried very well indeed from a soggy sponge to a mild damp feel . Both units also purify the air . The car felt dry and warm when I opened it up , unlike 3 or 4 days ago that stone cold wet feeling . Now warm and dry and a fresh smell too

Please enjoy some random photos of the car , the more I'm going to the car the more I'm wanting to drive it lol

Maybe overkill but if trying to seal with PU sealant fails then would replacement under your insurance policy cover a new screen / seal?

Checked the dehumidifiers and got out from both just over half a tank each , 1 tank is 500ml the other is 2.5L , so its pulling out the wetness, the wetness monster 👻 👽 😳 can find a monster emoji

Sitting in the car , them seats are so comfortable

I see you forgot your pin code then too? :rofl2:

Sylv's 1.9TD ZX is still not starting. Sadly I think I am going to have to do the same.

If only there was some way of finding out the code like plugging in an oscilloscope and looking at the pattern each key press makes...

The new wire on the solenoid was done several yr back as the old one was leaking diesel and the original wire was no good so it got replaced for some new copper

That's the basis of a good project once you have the 207 all nicely sorted Husky :)

The plates to weld are small so that won't be to bad and as with everything project wise , time weather and cash lol

Consider yourself lucky!

I'll get round to de-armouring the ZX one day.

One day...
