  • Toyota Verso Xenon headlights UK version - any help, please?

    Hi!


    My car is Toyota Verso, 2012 model, 7 seater, 1.8l petrol, automatic, but left hand drive, i.e. EU model.


    Now that we are staying in the UK, I have to convert it to UK standards, so I need to change the headlights so they are fit for the UK driving side.


    UK model of Verso has halogen kind of headlights, apparently - and EU has Xenon type. Putting halogen lights into my car takes quite a bit of rewiring, they tell me...


    So, does anyone have Xenon headlights but the UK version, i.e. not EU, which are inverted in terms of angles...???


    Or if you know somebody who can convert the UK headlights into the EU model of Toyota Verso, i.e. who can rewire it, please?!?


    Anyone with any knowledge/information/skills, please? Pretty please... It's a major headache...:zip it:

    How to choose a free VPN: 5 must-ask questions

    The last 12 months have witnessed the rise of global threats to individual privacy with long maintained rights to anonymity and net neutrality being undermined with a cloak of legitimacy.


    While VPN - virtual private networks - are not the panacea to being safe, secure and private on the internet, it is an essential component of the arsenal for individuals inclined to seek these liberties.


    If you don’t have a VPN yet, you can grab one for free, without having to pay a single penny for one. Just be careful though as not all free VPN providers are created equal and some might even compromise your security.


    Here are five questions you need to ask yourself before you download and install one.


    1. What is its business model? VPN providers are in for the money and running such a business does cost a lot especially if it is a popular one. Some, like Tunnelbear, will use free, just like Dropbox, as a marketing tool to entice potential customers to move to a paid version once they are happy with the free one. Most however will sell user data or provide a something to a third party that will, again, compromise your privacy.


    2. How does it protect my PC? Most VPN providers usually use a desktop application that runs in the background encrypting your data while you surf the web. However, that’s only solves part of the problem. Your laptop can still be fingerprinted because of the permissiveness of tracking solutions that can be found on almost all websites online. A few, including WIndscribe, have a more holistic approach by integrating the equivalent of a super ad-blocker


    3. What do I lose by going free? Usually one can expect a free product to have some corners cut and that is indeed the case for all VPN providers. Some offer more free bandwidth than others, major locations and even ad blocking, P2P and firewall with an easy paid for upgrade path that unlocks unlimited bandwidth with more locations and OpenVPN Configs.


    4. Does your provider log anything? Make sure that your provider doesn’t store users’ internet activity. You can usually check that in the terms and conditions page or the end user license agreement, commonly known as EULA. Sadly, a lot of VPN providers prefer to frustrate end users with long T&Cs or privacy statements that often hide significant details about how they operate. On the other end of the spectrum are VPN providers that will erase everything after your session closes and don’t keep logs.


    5. Can I sign up completely anonymously? Having a VPN provider that you can subscribe to without an email address and one that accepts Bitcoin payments, for maximum privacy, is pretty much the best you can expect online. Some providers also offer double hopping where you can obfuscate your traffic further by essentially doubling down on privacy.

  • Cheap and good quality VPN for unlimited number of devices and it works easily in E2 with YIFY etc.

    I just bought Surfshark VPN services, as they allow unlimited number of devices to be connected and they are dirt cheap, plus speeds are great with IKEv2 encryption for PCs/laptops and devices that support it!


    https://surfshark.com/


    In our boxes I used OpenVPN plugin with Surfshark details and that was enough to use YIFY-FNC with the original YIFY link! Two texts below were edited a bit by yours truly...;)

    "Surfshark on Enigma2 with OpenVPN


    If you’re here to learn how to set up Surfshark VPN on your Enigma2 powered set top box, read How To Setup NordVPN on Enigma2. The setup is exactly the same, with one small difference. For NordVPN you use the same login and password as for your apps, whereas Surfshark provides you with separate login and password for OpenVPN connection. Just use them in your password.conf file and you should be good.


    If you don’t know where to find your OpenVPN credentials, go to Manual connection guide on the Apps page, but in order to see them you need to be logged in."


    https://satellitedirect4u.com/…nordvpn-on-enigma2-boxes/


    "What you need:


    Notepad++ – download it from https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v7.5.6.html

    VPN config file – download it from your VPN provider

    Enigma2 powered box

    Valid VPN subscription

    FTP client – I use Filezilla

    Telnet client, SSH or PuTTY


    Preparing the files for upload


    Once you downloaded and installed all software you need, unzip VPN config.zip and open any ovpn file with Notepad++. Look for line auth-user-pass (around line 31) and change it to

    auth-user-pass password.conf

    then save your file as

    client.conf


    It is very important to do this after opening the file. If you rename the ovpn file before opening in Notepad++ you may corrupt it and make unusable.


    Next, open a brand new, "clean/empty" file in Notepad++ and insert/paste your VPN login details like so:


    your@email.com

    yourpassword


    (Note, as above: YOU DO NOT USE THESE BUT THE DETAILS SURFSHARK GAVE YOU WHEN YOU WERE DOWNLOADING OVPN FILES - USERNAME AND PASSWORD given to you by Surfshark! [gorski's comment])


    Then save this file as

    password.conf


    Using Filezilla or any other FTP client make openvpn folder in /etc folder and then upload both files client.conf and password.conf to your box to /etc/openvpn folder and reboot the box.


    Next run OpenVPN app by pressing MENU > Setup > System > Network > OpenVPN setup, then activate it and hit start button. Your IP should now change to the location you edited server for.


    I.e. for any uk server edit any file starting with uk like so:


    uk368.nordvpn.com.tcp443.ovpn – for TCP port 443 or

    uk367.nordvpn.com.udp1194.ovpn – for UDP port 1194 (more stable in my opinion)


    Now run PuTTY or SSH, log in to your box and check your ip using this command:


    Code
    wget -qO- http://ipecho.net/plain;echo


    Stop running OpenVPN on your box and check your IP again, if it’s different than previous one that means your setup is correct.


    In PurE2 you can check your home network and public IP address by going to MENU > pManager > Network > General Network Info.


    You should see something like 192.168.xxx.x for home network (local and Gateway addresses are usually in this format/range) and


    Public IP address must be different than the one you get from your provider if OpenVPN is working.


    Also, you should have an additional Gateway and Public IP address, quite different from your usual local address format/range, like 10.8.8.x


    Final note:


    For better stability you can put:

    auth-retry nointeract

    exactly below

    auth-user-pass password.conf

    in your client.conf file.


    Also if you spot any issues add that:


    log /etc/openvpn/openvpn.log


    around line 40 or so and you would be able to see the logs and know straight away what’s going on."


    Hope it helps... ;)
