Couoldn't you take it off and dry it over night, put a bit of vaselene on the rubber seal and refit ?

BM08

Dave i really mean droplets insides, as if its been dunked into the sink pulled out and refitted it wont dry over night i wouldnt have thought

And what would the vaselene do?

Gaz 88

cheap ones..! ived brought loads off ebay and places and they turn green and get water in them best off just spending a bit extra and get ford ones there not that much dearer. i just paid Ł7.70 for focus ones fron graham goode delivered

Ive never used Ebay mate, ive had these 2 years almost, pretty sure i got them from Motorworld.
Drivers side one is fine so doesnt that tell me its something to do with the seal rather than the actual repeater?

BM08

Actually will focus ones slot into mine? or is it a different fitting for the older fords

Bungle

Focus ones are different if there for the gti, I bought smoked ones off ebay look much nicer imo

BM08

Might get some smoked ones yeah i havent decided yet.

Got any pics of the smoke ones?

I was just thinking Ford dealers wont have clear/smoked mk6 Escort repeaters will they because they came with orange as standard?

If you heat up a pin with a blowtorch and then make a hole with it in the bottom edge of the lens it stops this 100%, it's what I do.

GTi site? cool

Bungle

Will be when ive finished it and got some advertising sorted not to mention finding someone to make the flyers and car stickers
and gaining members and moderators + finding traders etc

BM08

i used to be a member on one of the only UK GTi sites about 2 years ago but unfortunatly the site went down and lost over half the members made new site but only half rejoined which was a shame, it was like a ghost town so i stopped going on there

A lighter should do it as well ?
Failing that just drill a small 2/3mm hole.

So is there still one in existence?? I couldnt find one so i made one lol i spoke to martin the owner of the original gti site still not sure how many members it had though

I cant guarantee it will work but i'll fight to the death before i give up with it, Fancy joining?? If ya got any mates with a gti tell em

BM08

yeah i will join, why not

Martin that name rings a bell, it was the site i was on years ago, he should have told you about the site going down and then the new address and nobody knowing the new site addy apart from a select few of us
