    KERS...

    You don't say which BMW your friend drives but sounds to me like she has either the range extender BMW i3 (with a small petrol engine that puts charge back into the battery while driving) or a plug-in hybrid BMW that can basically do the same thing. Otherwise, as has been said, she must live at...

    Towbar on MG ZS EV

    @Mychski I'm interested in a towbar for bikes only and whilst googling for a UK supplier I found the wiring kit you were asking about here if it helps. Still struggling to find the Brink towbar itself...

    LED/HID Light Conversion now an MOT Fail

    @Burrom , Good luck finding those bulbs in the HB3 - 9005 fitment. I searched loads of sites and couldn't find available for UK delivery. I went for the slightly less bright (and cheaper..) Koyoso 12000 lumens ones as below...still a big improvement on the stock halogens.

    How come India has i-Smart EV 2.0 and UK has i-Dumb-EV?

    Thanks for asking the question @Marc Nagtegaal but I wonder if that's just the stock answer from MG ? Apparently our head units are different to Asia and have no embedded sim function for connectivity, so If Europe does eventually get an app I doubt it will have anywhere near as much...

    Window tinting pictures request

    Like @AussiePete we had ours done by Global Tint last week with the same 'Luna' tint but instead of a sun visor strip we had the front sides done with their minimum tint for the extra heat/UV protection. All in was £210 and only took him 2 hrs. The last photo exaggerates the tint effect and the...

    Black Roof

    Me too but, ouch, yes a bit expensive. I think roof and mirrors for us.

    Black Roof

    I think if you do that you probably need to go full de-chrome as @MilesperkWh mentioned...like this red one done by Luscombes...

    Black Roof

    You could always go opposite with a white roof ! I've seen a few cars lately with a lighter contrast roof but not sure about them tbh...I think I'd see that as a negative...:sneaky: Ok..I'll get me coat..

    Black Roof

    Thanks for posting those photos @JonnyMG . This is something we've been thinking of doing ourselves with our red ZS. We had a red Seat Arona with black roof when they came out and I think the look suits a small suv. I agree with @Lovemyev , it seems to lower what is quite a tall car for it's...

    Fitting new mirror caps on MG ZS EV - Removing the existing ones - help needed!:)

    I've seen for just over £70 the pair from an MG Dealer on eBay but was wondering if @Neil B MG ev might have found them cheaper elsewhere.

    Fitting new mirror caps on MG ZS EV - Removing the existing ones - help needed!:)

    I'd be very interested in how you get on with this with maybe some photos showing clips, etc ? I'm thinking of getting our roof wrapped in black gloss and changing mirror caps to black like yourself. Can I ask where you got yours and how much for the black caps ?

    It does look like the mirror needs to come out first from the previous page 273..

    Global Tints told me I could cancel my booking within 3 days of appointment and get full refund on deposit.

    Yeah did the paper test earlier in the thread. That's a good price for all round tint. I'm going to see on the day about doing the fronts, maybe he'll be open to a bit of negotiation..🤞

    Thanks for the reply @Lovemyev . I thought I'd test the front glass as you suggested so here's the result below. There's definitely a slight tint in the glass but minimal and not shown that well in the photo. As @Fishettibean mentioned before, unless you want to spend cash on a proper light...

    Sounds reasonable for them to be cautious. Do we know if the ZS EV has no tint to any glass and is 100% clear from factory ? Global Tint have assured me the fronts can be done legally to 70% with UV/heat protection and give a written guarantee.

    I had a local quote (Wirral) for rear @ £170 but they won't do the fronts. So got a quote initially from Global tint also for £170 rears plus £60 for minimum tint on front sides. Then decided to book with GT but they changed quote to £210 for rears as they class it as an SUV instead of 5 door...

    Legal LEDs for MG ZS EV

    Thanks. Yes, maybe I should have parked facing the garage but wouldn't have got full effect then !

    Legal LEDs for MG ZS EV

    I ended up getting the 12,000 lumens 6000k Koyoso leds that I linked before, as I couldn't find the higher powered ones being sold anywhere in the UK anymore. I'm not sure I'd want anything brighter tbh and these ones are pretty decent. Couple of photos below of before and after. I much prefer...
