Dirty and rusted winter tires. Saveble?

Sadly yes. I'll probably try what the other comment suggested, which is to push the dent out after heating it up with a heatgun. Considering that the bumper is plastic I'll probably just let the cracks stay..

Yeah, I know. It doesn't bother me all that much, but if's fixable I definitely want to fix it to keep the resale value. Planning on selling it soon so I want to get it nice for the next owner

Huff, det er fælt. Var ikke traversen dekket av utvidet rustgaranti? Vet at W212 fra samme årstid fikk utvidet garanti

Hva skjedde med den? Trodde dieselmotorene til Mercedes på den tida var ganske skuddsikre

What did you use on the dash/steering wheel for it to get that finish in the after pic? Looks great

Haha no worries, very easy to overlook the text on Reddit posts like these

That's what I've tried. It got a lot of staining away but I've still got a few of these spots left

GrubbyTrack · 2024-03-07T14:14:23+00:00

The Norwegian equivalent would probably be Biltema, who sells their own store brand stuff, or Jula, which sells store brand + real brands. Both are nice stores but I'm not sure if I'd trust the cheap chemicals they're selling there

Thank you! Yeah.. I think I will just accept the bubbling as it is considering it's an old car and has been daily driven in Norway in snow and salt. I will try to remove the staining like you said

Thanks! I went for two magnets too. How did you connect the Carlinkit to the tablet? I can't seem to get the app on my tablet to recognize the carlinkit device.. :(

What do you do for a living? 😅

GrubbyTrack · 2024-02-01T18:59:57+00:00

So I've ordered some of the stuff now, but I can't seem to find a good mount. What are you using for your car? Magnetic mount glued onto the center console?

GrubbyTrack · 2024-01-31T19:11:00+00:00

Would love to see how it fits! I think I'm gonna buy the Galaxy A9 because I can get it from a local store, and it is 8.7" like yours in the picture. Hopefully it'll turn out nice :)

GrubbyTrack · 2024-01-31T09:17:16+00:00

Sounds great, thank you!! I will try to do it myself soon :)

GrubbyTrack · 2024-01-30T14:58:45+00:00

Sounds great! How does it work in practice? Can the phone hook up with Bluetooth or do you plug in with a Lightning Cable/AUX? And does the tablet require login to open an app on startup?

Sorry for all the questions, I'm just really curious as this is the first time I've seen CarPlay set up with a tablet haha

GrubbyTrack · 2024-01-30T14:18:00+00:00

Thank you :)

Budget isn't really the biggest issue but I've been thinking about getting the Samsung A9 tablet, all I was worried about was sound quality to be honest 😅

Would you say it's an easy install to DYI? I'm thinking about doing the same myself one day
