What you need are the full S2TPP paddles which I have on mine now. Granted they may not fall off, however I don't want that worry that they may in the back of my mind. Sorry if that's put a dampener on it, but they are just stuck on at the end of the day.  :happy2:

How much??

I think they were £140 ish rich, yes I know they aren't cheap but they are a quality product mate and feel spot on being aluminium. No flex or anything in them really good shifting.  :happy2:

.
As I said before, my TID's have stayed stuck on and without even a hint of movement for tens of thousands of miles including trackdays. Also, they are made of solid laminated carbon layers and are totally rigid. Pricey but I can't fault them otherwise.

The problem with those pans is that they still require 3 million rolls of blue paper to clean up all the oil from the actual tub. The best type are the completely open ones.

Yep what he said tried a few but the open type ones are the best

Mods yes but way too many to stick in this little box

They usually have a spout on them so you can pour the contents into used/empty oil bottles as well. Much cleaner in my experience. The last time i used one of ^^^ those ones, it cost a fortune, made such a mess that i ended up leaving it full of oil in the oil recycling at the tip.

That's pretty convenient for me. Some blue roll from work and dispose of the old oil down at the workshop )

Today I had the pleasure of assisting the mighty Alex of AKS fame fitting some nice Bilstein B16 PSS10's, Whilteline WALK, AutoTECH rear sway bar and a geometry setup. Shame the weather was crap for the ride home. :(
