Right been looking round and what people have some and most people use a sieve mesh but I found an alternative that gives you a few spares. What you will need. A cheap frying pan splatter gaurd A Stanley knife or similar A small tin of Hammerite A marker pen A pair of scissors A suitable size jubilee clip An adult for supervising the the cutty out bits Step 1: Remove the splatter guard from the packaging. Step 2: take the Stanley knife and run around the outer ring of the splatter guard so that your just left with the mesh. Step 3: work out how big you need the mesh I worked out that for my TD04 it needed to be the size of a small tin of Hammerite, i worked this out by measuring the diameter of the inlet then allowing a little either side (1cm) for clamping. Then using the marker pen draw around the tin. Step 4: Cut around your outline with a pair of scissors. Step 5: Trial for it for size I was lucky I had a spare turbo housing but if not try it for size as if you've made it to small you still have more mesh to make it bigger. If all is good continue to the final step if not repeat from step 3. Step 6: If all is good fit it to the car tighten up the jubilee clip and happy boosting. Writing & Images by Rob Bower

Very easy way to turn your foglights yellow just like our friends over in Japan! What you will need... A4 Sheet of Yellow Tint Film Clean Cloth and Water Heatgun/Hair Dryer Sharp Blade Use your rag, wet it and clean the front AND sides of the fog lights, basically anywhere the vinyl will touch, once done dry them off with clean towel. Cut the A4 sheet in half so each peace is big enough to cover your foglight with extra overlap then peel your film and place carefully on the foglight. From the middle of the light outwards, push all bubbles the out and make sure the vinyl is down all over the surface of the fog light, Once you get to the edge of the light get your heat gun or hair dryer out and heat the edged and pull the vinyl tight so it sits nice on all the curves and edges. Once this is done press it all down round all edges with your thumb just for safe measures. Get your sharp blade and cut round the back of the fog lens leaving a little bit of extra vinyl 1-2mm to tuck round the lens. Once you have done this get out your heat gun / hair dryer and heat up the vinyl till it tucks itself round the back of the lense and push in with your thumb for safe measures. All Done! Vinyl can be purchased from a Trader on UKSO called Stick-2-It.
