Bought a new head unit, bit fiddly to install but it's in now

[Black.Ghost]

I have to admit, I'm not a massive fan these. The front doesn't look too bad but the rear is plain, especially for what should be a hot hatch.

I notice there are several blank buttons above your stereo? Do you know what they are for? I don't know about Skoda but many cars have the loom for whatever should be there hidden up behind the dash making for some easy upgrades. If nothing there, nice spaces for heated seats each side and a couple of other options as well.

The end ones are used for heated seats and as well as what I have there was esp. On some there was an airbag light

I just got one of these and has the same switches above the stereo.

I have seen the rollers for heated seats bit would be interesting to see what the other spaces are for?

Yay! 123.4!

 

 

And a sign of things to come..... rear anti roll bar fitted

 

Springs are on their way soon

After!!

 

It handles so amazingly now! It is so awesome!

[robminibcy]

what springs have you used? have you changed the shocks as well? has the arb affected front end grip at all? Ive been thinking about fitting a rear arb to my golf when I sort the rest of the suspension but I have read mixed reviews of them curing understeer by simply reducing grip all round!

 

Have you had this mapped? if not id definitely recommend you put it on a to do list! really transforms these engines and if you need any more convincing you get a few more real world mpg as well!

Shocks are standard for now and the springs are hnrs
rarb is amazing! Gives the car better turn in and feels planted.

Not mapped yet, brakes are next on my list, then mapping

Looks nice that mate I Bob round in a just s standard fabia as my daily winter car to save the mini. But wouldn't mind one of these...

[matt050990]

I took my one of these out this morning and absolutely trashed some chav in his fiesta ST.
Was looking at getting mine mapped during the summer, results are supposed to be amazing.

I used a company called Enigma in Ashford to map the Mazda. Really good guys. I was surprised at the economy improvements

[matt050990]

I may have to have a look down there mate. Been quoted £150 for a lad to do it.

Not sure on the average prices?

[rally515]

Were did you get the rear ARB Dom ? I've got a mate who's just got one of these for £3500 and I said I'd ask you about it for him.
