Default Replacent Dash Lights

Hey guys

Just got me a nice new (to me) 2000 X 156 2.5 V6. Anyway, it's pretty much
a peach FASH example except for a warped rear disc and the rear fog
dashboard indicator not working, is it a dash out job? Expensive? I ask as
I happened to ask the dealer how much a brake disc was for the back (60
quid!). Naturally, I ain't paying that kind of money and got 15 quid Delphi
Lockheeds for some DIY. Oh, btw, how much is a new set of side skirts or
does someone have a set kicking around they might want to part with?

Rgds

Congratulations. Skirts could cost you dearly. More than a suit :-)
Cadamuro skirt = €380, Autodelta skirt = £185.

Hey Pete, where can I see pics of the Cadamuro? Don't like the
autodelta ones.
BTW, my fog light indicator does work, only comes on when dipped
headlights are in use (not like my old car).

Rear fog light(s) should switch off when you turn on your "big" headlights

Certainly is in the UK. Shame they don't also make it a legal requirement
that fog lights switch off when the ignition is turned off, and will not
re-light unless deliberately turned on.

...a feature of the 156! Still doesn't stop some plonkers going to all
the *effort* of re-selecting them though. In any case, my front fogs
are totally useless - I once tried to light up a wall 10ft away in
darkness with them - made no real difference. Maybe the Italians have
an extra-special, cunning fog over there...

Found some other (cheaper) ones at www.needforspeed.co.uk . Think I like
the originals best though

I assume that you mean the RGM skirts. Can't say that I would like them on
my 156. Although I dare say that someone somewhere would desire them.
TBH if I fitted skirts to my 156 they would be off by grounding on the
un-classified roads in the Fens :-) If they were on the 147 they would be
off in a day :-( "Her" is a loony driver. It's her age.<g>
