Ticketec Member 15 Member For: 16y 3m 22d Posted 04/01/09 12:43 PM Share Posted 04/01/09 12:43 PM Like a kick in the nut's!!!First day back at work tomorrow, so you can be sure the boy's will be out in droves to check out my new show pony, and there I'll be starting it with a screwdriver like I stole it! Well, I'll distract them with the cracked fog light lense I just found as I washed her the arvo Got a brother in law who works for Ford so I'll get him to price and order me a replacement tomorrow. should be cheaper than the $500 price that Ford normally charge, seeing as the $280 are second hand ones and I don't want it happening again.thanks Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/51108-broken-fpv-start-button/page/5/#findComment-796007 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even more of a wank in the FG's with the cheap and nasty after thought they've hogged the console with now....Wouldnt be so bad if it was keyless but being that you need to do both makes them pointless.
