Help with Mod's
Hi All,
Just starting to get into the modding world and I could do with some help.. Can you get the folding mirrors to operate via the key whilst opening & locking the vehicle? Where is the best place to buy a Aero front bumper from? I have seen some on ebay from Poland at around £60, need painting and fitting. Anyone recommend a good window tinting company near Reading? MSport side skirts, any recommendations where to buy from? Thanks everyone!!!! |

The mirrors no longer fold via the ignition - only by the switch on the door. This feature was removed after August 2006 builds.

Damn it, mines a Sept 06 build, missed it by one month! Very good company for window tinting and have a base in Reading I believe. I'll have a look at their website, thanks! |

Hi mate. Phone Sextons reading about the tinting, its half the price of Pentagon and just as good a job.
0118 931 0888 Ask to speak to Andy and say Mega sent you. Next. I'd call B&W Chiptune in Surrey to see if they can sort the auto folding. They can program pretty much anything, and if its possible - then Jason there will be able to sort you out. 02085703600 or mob: 07831103030 Finally, SSDD motorsport can sort the side skirts and aero kit including painting for you. Check out www.ssdd-motorsport.com Oh, finally again - as your a mod nut, this is a little cheeky - but you should totally join AHEM !!! Try this one again and I'll be after you!! Mod ![]()

The mirrors can be programmed to fold with the key. All you need is to have the dealer activate a code on the car using their ISIS/GT1 machine. The code is listed in the retrofit/activations options on the dealer programming machines.

Thanks E92, any ideas how much a dealer would charge for this kind of thing?
Hey MEGA, I joined the website and put you down as the referrer. Looks really good, thanks matey. I'll be sure to check out the window tinting company. Have you had yours done? I here some people have problems with the rear window? |

Not yet but I have had all my previous cars done there. What E92fan is saying is correct, then again he always is. If you can get a dealer to do it cheaply then go for it. I'm certain B&W Chiptune will be able to do it as well though
