Sweet bro!!

Major changes and they look good

grantwoodtx

Can you post how to code the fuel remaing in the tank? This seems like a great bit of information to have.

TheVazha

That's awesome!! Good stuff, how did you get the "Fuel Tank Remaining Display"?

desertland

sweet looking ride Alps, wheels are brilliant, I have the same ones on my car..

You planning adding any performance mods?? Sure your beast rips up the London roads, when it's not snowing!!

t-bone

Beautiful car and a superb set of options and mods

CharlyE500

Very well done ! how much did you spend to do all ?

Alps

Thanks guys, Fuel tank mod is via STAR, anyone with dev mode STAR can do this for you, i think the instructions are also on the start mods thread, if not i`ll add them in.

cost wise, way too much as is with anymod!

facelift LED third brakelight


LED license plate lights

Alps

Also finished the iphone to ipod cable install which is now fitted to the bottom of the armrest for the cradle to plug into and the remote for the Lowering module mounted in the armrest out of sight too, ignore the additional wires they are so i can take the remote out and lower when i want to, i may tuck them in more out of sight later.
