Just wondering what next, nothing expensive as an upgrade on the T350.

Just ordered the CF Airbox. Shocks standard but fine, got the jp exhaust on, 125 amp fuse, lees washer bottle tongue out silicon hoses, fitted wolverine oil heater pad. Upgraded stereo. Rest all standard...

Mmm foot mats might be something to replace, black of course.

How "unstandard" do you want to get? I can suggest a few ideas, but depends how far down the upgrade or mod route you want to go biggrin

Move the 100 (125amp) fuse from under the airbox to the bulk head.

Excellent and v easy although Matt Smith did for me at service. Not long to do.

It's located under bonnet so I'm moving the plug to my scoop so i don't have to open bonnet each time to unplug. Mines linked to a remote plug socket so I can activate from house 2 hours before I go out smile it's warm to 45 degrees by then when I'm pulling out drive although I give the car time to warm everything else up smile awesome bit of kit smile

Plan too after cf box fitted. More than likely Dom. Decatted so both that and box time right.

Wondered about ecu upgrade. Doms new one or saves for future.

Love Sundays on iPad, thanks chaps, I'm virtually bankrupt this afternoon tongue out

Here are a few...

  • Preoiler - expensive
  • Starter button - easy to fit but watch the trimming. Best to fit on centre console next to brake. Buttons on demon tweeks work well
  • Replace screw studs on back window with brushed ally ones - easy to do, get them from Bespoke Performance
  • Parking sensors
The list goes on, but that might help..

Np. I'll dig up the details for buttons tomorrow. Which style you prefer? Brush ally to match other controls or something else? I used brushed ally for mine.

Dug these off the thread I did when they were fitted...









I've tweaked it since then, but gives an idea.

From memory, I used a Trillogy 25mm one and then tweaked it. A selection of them are here..

http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/switches...

<<
It is a 25mm flushed aluminium button (and casing) which is fitted into the leather by the brake handle that has START
engraved on it and is backlit in blue. You turn the ignition key to the usual place and then press the starter button which
runs through the usual pre-oiler oil pressure build up and then ignition sequence...
>>

Has been modified since then to improve the design.

Do you have a wiring diagram for this? or can you just list the 3 colour wires that need to be spliced into.

I'll see if I still have the details for you. As I don't have the car currently, I can't see what was done...
