    Jesus is it my phone then? How do I fix it!

    Not a clue! I upload pics from a good old fashioned camera though a image sharing site. You can pre-select the size to upload them at. 800x600 roughly.

    your pic on the page before is the same! That ones 4,128px × 3,096px :eek:

    I don't see anything wrong with the image. The only thing I cannot figure out is what Ybfocus is showing us, but I am kinda slow as is shown a few times on this site when i do not know what I am looking at.

    But I am on a self build desktop with a 24" 1080p screen so the image is perfect on my screen

    Perfect for that screen! Full zoom out on my laptop doesn't even fit the whole pic in. Maybe I'm just being fussy? Clevlands pics were the same for me in the chat thread there yesterday.

    I'm just showing my LED angel eyes :)

    I'm on a 17" 720p laptop screen, looks fine on mine!

    I'll cancel it and just make it an attachment :)

    You know when I was after posting the comments here i was on the chat thread and was looking at Clevelands pics and was saying to myself they are probably too big as well.

    Cool! I knew it was the lights but I'm kinda a n00b with car stuff. i have learned quite a bit since I was on here and am still learning more stuff. You actually see angel lights on BMW alot. I still haven't figured out what xenons lights are. That reminds me, off to google images to check.

    Angel eyes are a bmw factory thing, like Lexus lights or golden wheels on Subarus :)
    I just changed from the standard halogen park bulbs to these white leds :)

    Xenon lights work using the inert gas in a sealed capsule, magical things happen when you turn them on and they are much brighter than standard halogens :)

    Yb, where did you get the LED bulb for the angel eyes?

    Any amount on ebay man, pay for good quality canbus types if you are thinking of getting some :)

    Edit: You're looking for 4 w5w leds :)

    I had LED's on mine but they kept on blowing. I absolutely loved them though, they just looked so well IMO:

    After quite a few of them going on me and having replacements sent from the US I just opted for a set of "Arc Angel" white H8's. Same as OEM except white rather than yellow. No problems with them. I'm waiting on that company to finish work on a new version for the E92 on which you can increase or decrease the intensity of the light.

    I'm sad now, going to sulk and cry myself to sleep with my crap bulbs :(

    That fuel tank still looks fairly healthy though :) How much does it cost to brim it, on average?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,844 ✭✭✭Moneymaker


    I don't think my cars fuel gauge has ever been past half full since I bought it. :pac:

    not so much, the most i've ever squeezed in is €65, it only has a 55l tank. drives me mad pulling in and putting in €20 here and €30 there because it always seems to be you need to stop when you're in a hurry. it's a more painful pill to swallow but i just brim it, drive it to the fuel light and brim it again.

    I generally half fill the mondeo and wait for the light, takes about €50 to half fill it, hence me going no further!!

    Different approach with the focus, like yourself about €60ish brims it, but I try not to let it under half way, don't know why. Makes me feel all warm inside when the pin is at the top :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,773 ✭✭✭Ded_Zebra


    I always brim my car, it saves time and probably money in the long run. I refill it whenever the range drops to about 100km. I don't let t get lower than that because that means I can always get somewhere in an emergency or something without stopping for fuel.:)

    How much petrol my dad's car gets, depends on how much money I have.
