Would like to know more about this FBH,have I got it?,do I need it?,never had a diesel before and the v6 is still off the road for now,also anyone know how big a job changing to powerfolds is please,As usual happy to help and the kettles always on.

Any chance of the headlight refurb at this meet? I'm hoping that the MkI doesn't require the bumper removing, seems to be plenty of room around them.

Thanks.

For the powerfolds have you got the door looms, mirrors and switch pack? . If you do it's a door off job, not difficult just time consuming and you need someone with small hands to unplug everything in the door!

Hi Jamie,for the powerfolds,that'll be no no and no as yet,Pam has small hands,she can unplug everything should I manage to source the bits lol.

Chris, myself and Steve Devilish have spent well over 12 months looking at FBHs as a project so can advise you and we also have some that we have refurbed if you decide you need one, you can also switch them on with a remote from the comfort of your house so the car is defrosted and cabin warm when you get in. Its one of the best mods I have done to my diesel without doubt.

We have fit many powerfold mirrors at Nano meets and most cars do have the loom from door to door, we can fit them if you source the mirrors and switchpack.

Hi Rob,would be very interested in fitting fbh especially with remote and start looking into switch pack and disappointing grey mirrors.

Hi Chris.
You should already have the FBH on your car, because I remember fitting an FBH to one of Andy's cars, have a look by the battery in front of it you should see one of these below if you have one.

If not there will just be a bracket.

I have just got a set of projectors for the ZT (assuming they make it in one piece through transit) If the weather is ok might have a go at fitting them with a bit of help with the bumper, if not, no hurry! A T4 check might be nice if present, but again no hurry as everything seems ok, I know there will be errors to delete though because of the naff battery incident lol!

The one thing I'd really like to do if someone is present with a trolley jack (and the weather is kind) is get some tyre protectors on. I only have a standard jack at home and don't feel confident with that, and for protectors my ramps are no good. So, nothing major! Oooh, remind me to snag a spyhole whilst attending too! I've already done the bonnet cable and fitted a plenum guard, so halfway there.

Chris we can fit an FBH and remote at the meet if you wish but just confirm that you dont already have one as in Steve's post above, if you have one we can test that first as it may be working and just add a remote
