JUst gettin me mates in the car...........put the rear seat down..........could smell something burning.............smoke apeared v quick! and fuked everyone out of car............a postive lead going through the car had earthed out! i grabbed the lead with my hand though it was red hot! and yanked the lead up to stop the burnin!!!! any more and this wud of gone up in flames!!!!!....its my own fault really, i put a temp positive lead for some leds going through!

My hands quite sore and burnt but ive saved the car and everyones ok...........the car now stinks and requires new carpet! oh well never mind serves me right i suppose i thought being a temp job untill i got time to get a fuse holder and put it under trim id get away with it..... ive learnt my lesson and i hope any other people reading this post will realise how unsafe it is unfusing any thing,.,,,,!!


Look on the bright side....at least my tunes stayed on whilst i was burning the rest of the car!
