I love mine.MKII's come with the alloy pedal covers...noice!!! You are missing a clutch though mate, what happened??? enjoy<{POST_SNAPBACK}>The Sports Steering wheel is just the Ducks Guts. Chunky, meaty fit in your hand.I considered an auto but I am too bloody lazy with the amount of peak hour driving I do.I have enough manuals around me that I can get the urge out of my system.

Guest xspsi Guests Posted 07/11/04 12:25 PM Share Posted 07/11/04 12:25 PM The fairmont console does indeed look very classy. Very nice colour and it definately stands out. Congrats on the new car!

Might be the only easy way out with the factory ICC. I got a PF mag with a red T in there that has an awsome setup with a 5ch amp, all MTX gear. Pretty big amp, running 2 12s of it too! Only problem I have is the remote wire for the amp. As I dont have premium audio (only prestige) there is no factory amp in there and no remote wire that I could use to turn the aftermarket amp on and off. I dont like the idea of a switch nor do I want the amp on all the time.

The reception on Multanovas is not as good as the three piece, but still plenty of time to slow down with the Premium stoppers.My 3 piece is a BEL Vector LR remote, I believe it has been superceded as it is about three years old. Gives about 200-400m warning on Multanovas, so has saved me a bit of money since I had it put into my old WRX.The Sports Steering wheel ain't cheap, but it is very nice indeed, pictures don't do justice to how good it feels.

That is pathetic, take your skirt off and start driving it like a man Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/13797-got-my-mk2-today/page/4/#findComment-184293 Share on other sites More sharing options...
