Its always worth checking around as the exact same part same brand can often be hundreds of pounds cheaper :thumb: and thats after finding out who makes the OE parts eg pierberg ,sachs etc etc and saving that way already . :thumb:
 
A bit boring and same old but here we go.

Cold air fitted.

No idea if it will give any benefit I would notice??

but it looks nice.

From forum member Barefoot. cheers Kev your a good lad.

Just bought a Dension 500s that is being fitted next Tuesday ready for a 3 day road trip to North Wales on Wednesday. After 3 years of ownership I felt the need to be able to stream music in the turbo.

Be interested to hear how the streaming goes :?: my system is pretty crap :frustrated:

Chris it was in a glass display case never used mate, its in as new condition , yes sending to Linas to get the leather trim changed to alcantara. and use my existing alcantara gator with it. I have been waiting so long to do this mod its one of the final interior bits I wanted to sort as I already have the X97 handbreak with alcantara back section :thumb: :thumb:
