406oc.co.uk

Not much to be at tonight so i thought id ask u guys ... Has anybody made any subtle touches to the exterior/interior of their 406 which they feel has made a big difference in a good way??

Are these subtle?



I also like the aero wipers, the stainless exhaust, oh and the "406oc" stickers

How many times have you used that photo Dai?

Dunno mate, can't count that high, even with my socks off

Nice piccie though but oh the memories plus kinda rubs it in
with your bluey bling and welton panel and headlight washers and foldy
mirrors etc etc

Are folding mirrors a diy I had them on fto also someone did a sticky for making electric mirrors heated any one done / got on 406

I've heard about people using these before... got any more info and maybe some action pics?

EDIT: duh, just seen t'other post! They look exceptionally good - how did you fit them?

they are a direct replacement, ill get the part number when i get home.... just pop the old ones out and new in

[quote="hucky"]they are a direct replacement,/quote]

Only on the coupe unfortunately . On the other models the washer jets are hidden under the back edge of the bonnet....

oo, in which case, the washer mod i did on my pug 306 with the 405 wash bar system would work..... these clip onto the wipers and you need to extend the washer piping slightly...

Yeah I used to like them on the 405, don't understand why that system wasn't more popular

Hey Matt, you could always drill a couple of holes in your bonnet...

Had the squirter on the wiper on the BXs, seemed to work ok so I can only think the old-fashion sort are cheaper to make. Umm, I don't think it would just be a case of extending the piping, some of it's actually the rear bonnet seal, you'd need to re-run it all from the back corner.

How does a wiper nozzle work? I mean you'd end up with very limited spray area unless it were like a sprinkler all along the arm, and then you'd miss the centre bottom if you were moving at speed...?

Wonder if I could get hold of a *substantial* washer motor... 100 amp jobbie... really get the windscreen clean... hmmmm

It's a long time ago but I seem to remember it was a folded tube with holes along it.
