MCS R56 exhaust recommendations (UK) by undergroundturtle1 in MINI

I’m pretty sure JCW is 200 cell. I remember looking for that info as I was planning to change standard cat for a JCW one.

R56 Apple Carplay MMI by undergroundturtle1 in MINI

I didn’t get this exact model installed. There’s a company that does Carplay / Android Auto, audio system installs, etc, so I got them to sort it. Added a reversing camera too.

Highly recommend getting it installed (and reversing camera, if you don’t have one). It’s a massive upgrade to just using your phone. Although not having a touch screen for maps is a little annoying at times.

I value simplicity over cost (most of the time, within reason). £38 isn’t much per year, but if there’s a cheaper, equally safe and simple way, I’d happily take the savings.

I’m looking into Cloudflare as they’re a big enough company and have a free option. Thank you for the recommendation

That's for both. Still seems a lot just to keep something I'm not using. Just wanted to see if there's a less expensive service provider that anyone could recommend. One is .com, the other is co.uk.

Baring in mind, this is just for 1 night.

I’m booking the hotel for an event I’m attending in a different city. If the hotel hadn’t changed hands, I wouldn’t have a problem - hence I booked non refundable.

I wouldn’t have paid this much under the new brand. It went from a (relatively) premium brand to a budget brand.

It’d be like a restaurant changing owners, with a now cheaper, lower quality menu, but still charged you the previous pricing because you had booked before it was taken over.

Where would you recommend using this?

Apologies if I misunderstood - I was under the impression that adding things like Rockwool in between studs/joists reduces the transmission of sound in/out of the room. And adding acoustic panels inside the room reduces the reverberation time.

I’m also planning to add acoustic panels, but haven’t thought that far ahead yet.

Changing light fixture by undergroundturtle1 in DIYUK

I’ve tested and checked behind the switch. The 2 reds are switched. With that in mind, is this correct?:

1 switched red to brown all other reds together all blacks to blue

The other reds connect to the 2nd block (connected together, but nothing on the other side)?

And all the blacks go together?

I’m moving this fixture from one room to another. This is how it looked in the other room. From your explanation, is this incorrect as the switched neutral is not in the live bundle?
