I like the steering wheel!!!
Is it a Momo Champion?
I think it's better than the other

Yep it is a momo champion, yer i prefer it

 

[Krish]

i like the quick release boss kit, very good for security reasons
just cant see you carrying it round with you everywhere you go lol

 

[joesouthgate]

Yer it will be handy, will only take it off in dodgy areas and when i need to more access to get the dash off etc.

Was being a bit silly earlier and disconnected it while driving (slowly) Never again!! Felt like the worst understeer ever! lol

 

[joesouthgate]

Carpeted the rear part of the false floor earlier:

 

[Davey C]

[NeX]

[joesouthgate]

[capnmchl]

Are you gonna be putting bucket seats in or anything along those lines, or are you happy with your standard micra seats?

 

[joesouthgate]

[joesouthgate]

Nope, tried it yesterday, neither does NeX's, must be cause both materials are very grippy.
