Yeah Paul that's cool, I'll have all my gear with me so we'll get a few bits done time permitting. Depends on how nice Tom's food is, might spend the day eating burgers instead!

The seventh Cars & Coffee of 2011, Cherrywood Business and Tech. Park, will take place on Sunday morning, August 7th, meeting anytime from 10.30am onwards.
Take exit 16 from the M50, and follow the road to the complex, park up in the large car park opposite the Spar store on the immediate right upon entering the gate.
This venue so far has proven to be a great success, it is quiet on a Sunday morning, with minimal public traffic, and we have the permission and blessing of both the site security, and store owner.
Take care on the approach road to the complex, it is a three lane road, and very easy to break the limit(60km/h) but it is often policed with speed traps.

I'm clearly an idiot - I've just realised this is in Limerick! Kept thinking Kildare & panning to "stop off" on my way back from Roscommon... hmmm... might still go...

Is anyone staying the night down there?


Seperate note - Headlight bulbs, the HIDs. My research tells me the OEMs are these:

http://www.hids4u.co.uk/philips-d2s-...ulb-85122.html
or perhaps these (same but dont colour fade as easily apparenty...
http://www.hids4u.co.uk/Philips-D2S-...plus-bulb.html

Honda apparently charge £100 per bulb - so the above at a £45 each isnt bad, assuming you could get away with UK free shipping.

Found these on Ebay - $43 a build shipped... if I believe they are actually Philips...

Anyone bought random spurious ones?

Must grab some oil actually , do you know if they do the 4 piece mats and if the offer extends to them? Wonder would they be since they are not a standard Irish or UK item......
