| Just wondering if any SA guys will be interested in having BFI and LED day before the weather turns crappy again ? I haven't done my BFI yet but pretty much all my LED's have been changed and don't mind doing anyone else's. |

| yea I would be keen too, all the bulbs are blown in my a/c unit and I'm not game to replace them myself. No problem pulling the unit out but beyond that I'm a bit cautious even with all the tutes going around |

| I'd be keen to do the BFI depending on timing and associated costs. I've hit a patch of fiscal turbulence... |

| I'll be keen, depending on the date. Traff, I heard that the BFI is pretty cheap to do, so if we go busking down Rundle Mall, we could all afford a BFI |

| Busking in the Mall? Hmmm. I'm musically challenged but willing to strip for cash. Or, even better, will take offers to keep my clothes on. I believe the second option will make lots more cash. But seriously folks... I understand there are several chaps here (Pen for one) who've done the BFI thang and may well be able to advise on costs etc. I also remember seeing a post where one of the D'other Petes had some left over neccesities from his BFI work. Might be able to convince him to part with it if enough beer flavoured lubricant is applied. How about we set a date and a venue? Any suggestions? |

| Any time after this weekend will be fine for me. We can use the shop car park unless it's raining - no cover. Brenton, my BFI is pretty simplistic, being a UZZ30 I didn't need fancy funelling to get past either an intercooler or an airbag pump. The added bits I used were a bit of coreflute and some heatshield foam. Total cost hardly anything. Even if you do a Mk3 BFI the cost is only a few $$ for stuff to funnell the air and a bit more if you want (and can find) fancy egg cups. |

| Hows March 4th for everyone? Should give us plenty of time to get materials organised. We should be able to get some sort of discount for bulk purchases. |

| March 4th could work for me. Was planning on going to Melbourne that weekend, but can postpone that. After all, Melbourne is the barnacle on the ar$ehole of the Universe and having a better breathing car to drive over there would be good. |

| I've done a BFI, didn't bother with the egg cups though, I can bring a template for the under headlight chamber and top cover. |

| Excellent Greg, having someone with experience is always good. So March it is then, let's just hope for good weather unless anyone can suggest a better place. |

| Gary, if the weather stays OK, we can always do another fixit day after that. There is always going to be things to do. Also guys, keep in mind if you want to do brakes or other stuff, there will be people to help, it doesn't just have to be about BFI's and LED's. |

| So far we have: Clayton - BFI Mk3 Tom - Air Con LED's Traff - BFI I shall bring what tools I have. Will be relying heavily on people with past experience. Having said that can someone let me know what I need to buy to do the BFI or shall we do a mass shop on the day? |
