It is for sure not for heated seats. Heating connector is one of two big connectors similar to moving connector. And then there are two more smaller connectors - one red with 2 wires and this black with 4 wires. Do you have original seats? (I mean, are you sure, you don't have LHD seats on RHD car?)...

I haven't used Brodit products but I believe that fitting in front of air vent is more convenient.

I used clear protective film as soon as I bought new headlights. After few years the headlights are still as new. Highly recommend.

I will not use Continental ContiSport tires again. They wear off very quickly and I had to replace one just after 6 months (got empty tire, could be bad road, but who knows, had to order another).

Thanks a lot!

What is your opinion about Pioneer 560BT? I am thinking about getting one, can't find better alternative with iPhone connection and charger.

It is 16. You should have this tool in your boot tool box. I think it's the same as the one for sparks.

There are also two torx bolts to remove airbag. I think they were T25 or T27.

My opinion about car looks - it looks like some child toy with this face grin. Looks more as VW hippy bus than serious Aston Martin (I see there some wanna be Aston Martin influence in front grille.) So it looks like some baby of some more serious car. Mirrors look awesome - even better than on Z3M....

No, but you can fit illuminated gear shift if you like.

I have to agree to previous poster. But I have to admit that items on that ebay link are very good priced, I think I paid at least twice as much for my parts. And I think you still need to check if you have clutch switch already installed.

They are rare, only recently a few (I had seen maybe 3 or 4 different offers) popped for sale

And most of them were sold almost instantly.

I can supply for about 200 pounds + shipping/packaging (also including rest of the frame and used soft top in bad condition but still without leaks). I think it's worth to visit your local breakers yard.

Looking good! I also bought ACS roll hoops with help this forum member, but before installing I want to wrap my custom subwoofer box behind the seats in leather so that I don't have to reinstall roll hoops several times to reduce the risk of damaging them.

That is great!

Looks like the most difficult part is to connect bowden cable and to fit actuator - looks like air intake needs to be disconnected for that... Where can I find plug which connects to actuator?

You can got both unused for 45 pounds on ebay, why do you think 25 pounds for one used is a fair price?

Red ones should be more soft and comfortable for normal road use.

Black ones should be more stiff - more for track use.
