  1. Yes i am using after market bulbs and it does look like heat spots as the guy who did wet sanding said he sanded aggressively and he cant feel anything on those spots and the whole headlight is very smooth no uneven spots ---------- Post added 28-10-2015 at 16:30 ---------- No uneven spots tried with finger nails and with the needle as well, the guy who cleaned the light did say that it looks like some kind of lacquer (liquid) may be spilled in the past which went inside the plastic and caused spots. The lights were cleaned by wet sanding with 600 grit sand paper followed by 3000 grit then buffing. ---------- Post added 28-10-2015 at 16:34 ---------- The headlights made of plastic pal they are not over sprayed, if they were overs prayed then they could have easily be cleaned with wet sanding.
  2. Its corsa sxi face lift model and need to take the bumper off for taking headlights out which is not an easy job. I hope someone who had similar problem with similar headlights could confirm if the spots are inside or outside and can be cleaned or not.
  3. Impressed with your hardwork lol,, but i don't have girl friend so looking for alternative easy methods without putting in the bath
  4. Hi Guys, I just had my headlights cleaned from local body repair shop, after cleaning the dirt and other stuff gone but some weird spot visible on my headlights, although they were there but after cleaning it seems like they spread more on driver side headlight. I asked the guy who cleaned the headlights and he said that headlights are very smooth and he cant do more sending and spots are inside not outside of the headlights. The guy used 600 and then 3000 grit wet sanding then buffing. Before cleaning my driver side headlight was clearer than passenger side and spots were lot less, but after cleaning driver side headlight looks bit blurry and passenger side headlight looks more clearer although spots are visible on both headlights but driver side has lot more spots and due to this it looks blurry. The spots are more visible when headlights on, please see the pics below and advice me if i can get rid of these spots and they are not inside of the headlight. Thanks
  5. They tried their best with the best equipment they have.. I took the airbag just to see if steering wheel is proper sat on marking position and its exactly on marking position, so nobody fiddled with steering wheel in past i assume.
  6. He put locking tool on the steering wheel but i am not sure if he put the steering wheel in dead straight position. I am just confused cos independent mechanic says tracking is right and the people who done the tracking drove the car and said tracking spot on then why i have to keep the steering wheel a bit to the left to make it straight. Only one thing comes in my mind that may be in the past some one took the steering wheel off and did not put back right, but again before tracking my steering wheel was almost straight
  7. Thanks for the link but still not for specific model but i got the written guide will try later.
  8. its corsa c 2005 model could not find the video for specific model and yes it has airbag
  9. No worries mate my original question still there which i asked. Is it ok to remove the steering wheel to make it straight as no point paying another £15 for making steering wheel straight.
  10. I am not competitor or anything i am just here for the advice just pointed out what they have done and what they have said to me after tracking when i complained that steering not straight
  11. for a reason i am removing their name and address for now as i am about to see them tomorrow for a solution
  12. Update: Been to the garage again and they were extremely helpful, they offered me re tracking again and offered refund if problem still exist. They tried their best and gone out of their way to resolve this problem. I mark this problem as solved and i thankful to them that they tried their best efforts to solve this problem in very professional manner. PS i am removing all their details from this thread. Thank you Hi guys, Need some suggestions, i had my corsa 1.3 CDTI SXi tracking done yesterday after the tracking my steering wheel not straight. I have to keep it to the bit left to make it straight, i been to another mechanic who examined and told me that tracking seems ok just wheel not bit straight, he advised me that its their job to make the steering wheel straight and go back to them and ask. I went back to them the guy who done the tracking drove my car and said that tracking is fine if you want to make your steering wheel straight then take it off and put back straight. My question is that is he right to say that he cant help and giving advice to take steering wheel off. I been to other forums and they say its their job to make steering wheel dead straight, they have not done tracking properly if they cant help ask for refund and go to some reputable garage. I don't want to involve in argument with them so just need advice what to do or is it ok to just take the steering wheel off and make it straight. Thanks
  13. Thanks Mr Bloke i wondered how frustrate they are and now sending offensive comments in their quote. Although i reported to 1stchoice. First they rang me six times in the morning which i did not pick up, now after making new quotation request i was surprised when they sent a quote again with £0.00 then silly comments in the suppliers info. Geared i already reported to 1stchoice.co.uk that this is dissolved company. Today received email from 1stchoice with the proof of refund thats why they are frustrated rang me six times to bully me i assume which i did not pick up.
