Not too sure where I should post this, but this place seems as good as any - If the Admin team can think of a better place, feel free to relocate it accordingly. You might have gathered from this thread that I have been playing with Visual Basic again and have come up with, what I think is, a nifty little program - it allows you to enter the codes from your vehicles option plate (found on the bulkhead in the engine bay) and interprets their meaning A screen shot:  Once you have entered your codes, you can save the data (might I suggest using the vehicles registration number as the file name) to recall in the future if you so desire. From the File menu, you have the option to - Create a new data file
- Open an existing data file
- Save the current data
- Print the list to your printer
- Exit the program
From the Edit menu, you can copy the results to the Windows clipboard, for pasting into other applications, or indeed this forum, the result might look something like this: D0M - Not found AU4 - CENTRAL DOOR LOCKING A30 - ELECTRICALLY OPERATED WINDOWS CF7 - REMOVABLE ROOF COVER C05 - CABRIOLET DK2 - MIRROR,ELECTRIC AND HEATED,DRIVER SIDE DK3 - MIRROR,ELECTRIC AND HEATED,PASSENGER D63 - BOX,DEPOSIT,FLOOR,FRONT LE4 - 20 PETROL ENGINE NK3 - STEERING WHEEL,LEATHER N1A - Not found N33 - FOR TILTING STEERING COLUMN N9E - TYRES,GOODYEAR S1Y - AUTOMATIC LOCKING HUB U05 - HORN,DUAL W1J - RADIO,SC 303-D (C) XA4 - BAR,FRONT END PROTECTION XB5 - STEP,SILL SIDE,BLACK XG4 - FOR UNITED KINGDOM XQ2 - FOR VAUXHALL 15C - Not found 15I - Not found 2G4 - FOUR WHEEL DRIVE 277, 33L, 33U - EXTERIOR PAINT - Caribic Blue Met (94-96) As you can see from the above, there are some codes that cannot be found - it would be useful if you could post here what code, if any, are not found from your options plate as we might be able to determine what they are and get the database updated. So far, from my list above we are missing: - D0M - Not found
- N1A - Not found
- 15C - Not found
- 15I - Not found
Free to download and use  This little Windows application can be installed from my website: http://www.trugga.co.uk/software/vxcode/There is a chance that you will be asked to install some software (they're just Visual Basic support files), although the actual program resides at my webspace - suffice to say that you need to be connected to the internet in order to use it. This is I believe the best way to handle this at the moment as I will be able to add further items to the data list, ensuring you always have the lastest copy available to you (until I work out how to get the software to check for updates). Once installed, an application shortcut should appear on your desktop:  Theoretically, codes should be available for Vauxhall/Opel vehicles from 1983-2002 Has been tested on Windows 7 and Windows XP. I hope you find this little program useful. Feedback is appreciated Lawrence

Thanks. This should help clear a few things up. Will try it in the morning.
I have had in the past a Panda a Fourtrack a Disco a Terrano and a Range Rover DSE. My Frontera, although older than any of the previous, feels like the real thing. If only bits would stop dropping off.
