6 months? it really will fly by... its when you start dipping into the 12 to 18 months that you feel it

The points hit is the real bitch, you dont get those back for a long time. I only have 1 point for the next 1.5 years and i got no chance of pulling that off. See what you get for helping people? its really not worth it

I get back to 6 points next april. only 2 points till then. Should be ok. I've only been caught speeding twice and lost my licence both times so judging by my history, it's all or nothing.

damn, that sucks, so many people without licences.

the other week, i got pulled over for doin 100 in a 60 zone. i thought i was a gonner, my heart was thumping like crazy, luckily enough, i was wearing my hungry jacks unifrom and i was 15 mins late for work and the chick cop was really really nice and she only gave me a warning! havnt sped since

Now why do I never get off!!! Last time I lost my licence I got booked for not wearing a helmet riding my bike! Whats next?

I hve heard that Horsham police are on the ball re-speeding. Hell my brother lives in Dimboola and they are often is his neck of the woods pickign up ppl for speeding...so guess it could be the same at Ararat :happy:

One of the most frustrating thing is that the cops don't stick to their own rules. Twice I've been driving between Horsham and Ararat and get passed by a cop doing 130kph. I know coz I sat behind them after the passed me:) They were in a crewman with 4 cops in the car. When I get to Ararat about a min behind them they just get out at a scout hall for a little convention or something and they're just chatting with each other. No emergencies, no robberys, no brawls, no assaults!!! They just do it coz they can. If they can do it 'safely', so can I!!!

100 in a 60 thats really f**ken stupid. You deserve to get booked and i hope you do next time.

Meanwhile Russ here has no licence for 6months now....bad luck mate, sorry to hear it.

Im sure those are the minimum penalties too....

it was pretty silly.

femno i think i met you once, mates with dano and ian?

Edited by sillylankan

i thought they didnt do that trick anymore ??

i think once you finaly pay the fine they do the maths and work it out from the date you got the fine and how many points you had at the time

yeah will also lose my license for 6months unless i drag the fine till august which is when i get points back...

group hug :happy:

i also got done speeding to work, and i only had one point left, so i was expecting to lose,

but i dont no what went wrong but i got a letter from vic roads stating that if lose one more point i will lose it for 6 months

so i guess im lucky they stuffed up lol

A mate of mine lost his for 12 months and after 6 he rang up and asked what date he can start driving again. The said they had no record of him losing his licence! So he started driving again. he was happy but still spewin he wasn't driving the whole time!

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
