  1. Is there a method to repair or replace the bulb or led that serves as the display for the stock radio?
  2. That is exactly my present position. (I'm the cack-handed mechanic, and the new belt is made of Chinesium, whilst the original is made of...er...Japanesium.) Timing belts, unlike tyres, do not carry date tags, and in an old automobile with little demand for components, they might have been sitting on the shelf for a long period. Finally, Daihatsu emphasizes in the handbook the need of notfolding belts at severe angles, which is how the replacement belt was kept. All of this makes me skeptical that I'll be better off post replacement (if I achieve it), but it also makes me much more certain that rubber band autodestructing engines are a bad idea.
  3. This question has come up a few times lately, and I know it is often asked here. A search would likely provide the answer, but it seems like a good subject for the FAQ. How can you distinguish between the following automobiles and bodies: the pre-lit Narrow Low-line (ii) iii) Limited iv) Broad Do I have any missing standard bodies? Please provide information on any places that are clearly different, measuring points, etc.
  4. I'm including a few images here. The body was undamaged, and the tyre was in its proper location. As can be seen in the image, the rod tyre had been deformed. He suggested I go to BMW since they would have the component in stock, but once I got there, they examined it and gave me a quotation for £9000.
