Wa Night Cruise - June 2011

[XF Falcon]

Mat, we had a car come into work with a broken door grab like yours. We ended up having to order in a complete new door trim as it actually breaks the plastic welding when that happens. You can try fix it yourself, but being a panel and paint shop we did it properly and ordered in the new door trim.

That's what I thought as well mike, it really needs a new door trim as it's ripped the holes bigger. But yeh, your fault :D

What's a new door trim worth?

It's funny cause the other side feels a bit "light" but when I was in serves car briefly his felt much more solid. Wouldn't want to be holding on in a crash lol

Justin, the door was open slightly so I leaned around pulled it shut. Used a bit of effort but nothing to much and the whole handle snapped off the screws that were holding it in place.

Grug, I do but I can't upload to YouTube so is there a way I cab transfer video from iPhone to iPhone?

Could email it too me? Bluetooth for iPhone sucks.

I got my second hand door trim from the wreckers $150 but it wasnt my style trim so I just drilled the handle off the trim and just have the screws holding it in, brand new from ford someone was saying 600 but another person 2000 but I no it aint cheep

Id like the videos emailed to me...if anyones got any

Mat, have you got software to recode the video to Xvid or similar compressed format? It's not great quality and the files could be smaller, but I use QuickMediaConverter to make Xvids, then if needed I can edit (crop and recompress) them in virtualdub. Worked well for the vids I took, 18 seconds at half res (still 960x540!) = under 2MB. Easily emailed. Will let those I sent their own vids forward them on if they wish! incidentally the corner vid I took out in the dark barely turned out so I won't bother uploading. Sad face. Just too dark with a single street light.

Couple extra pics of when Stef led us through the Macca's drive through:

I might be wrong, but I don't think they'd be operating on a CB UHF channel - I'd think it'd be in the 27mhz range or the VHF range. Either way, not a CB frequency and you'd be breaking the law if you transmit on it. ACMA violations FTL - They take that sh*t seriously. It's something like a $5000 fine.

Fun things in life are always illegal.

EDIT - If they're on 27meg you might get away with it as 27meg doesn't require an operator license.
