Think the next thing is gonna be, some new tyres. Really don't like the Maxxis Pro-R1's that are fitted. Been looking at Goodyear Efficient grip performance, rated B fuel efficiency and A wet grip, and only 69db.

Then in the new year, I'll be getting it remapped.

Probs be some other small bits done too. :D

Those tyres sound good mate,

You may also consider Avon ZV5's there also A Rated for Grip,

Remap will definitely put a smile on your face aswell.

I moved from ZZ3's to EGP's and am very satisfied with the grip and wear life.

Definitely personally recommended.

Ok cheers Lenny, yeah it will. :D

Cool, hopefully I can get them for a good price. :D

Bit of a change of plan. Tyres are on hold for a few months as I've still got 3.5-4mm left on them, so might as well wait till there down to 2mm.

And remap might not happen, as I just got a ear bashing off the wife lol

As she says, I've got the mk3 Escort to play with, and do engine mods etc on.

She doesn't mind me modding the Focus but not the best part of £300 on mapping and extra insurance premium.

I can basically do want I want with the mk3 Escort. :D

liking the new bulbs

Cheers mate. :)

This arrived today. :)

Have you fitted it yet? It'd be interesting to see how much difference the smaller antenna makes to the signal strength

I need to replace mine soon as it's falling to bits, can't decide wether to go for one same as this or just a regular long one

No not yet, not long in from work......will do it at the weekend in daylight. :)

Ariel fitted, haven't tried it yet though. :D

Looks good!!

Looks like the bonnet lip will have to be repainted, it's started to blister in the frost. Must of had some moisture in there. Fog surrounds are fine (were done on a warmer day). Might carbon wrap it, not decided yet. Or just put the chrome one back on. And respray that one in the summer.

my blooming aeriel base was loose only found out when I saw water dripping from the interior light :( ,

How's the reception with the stubby ?

Good reception mate, just as good as the standard one. :)

looks really good , I will have to clean the oxidisation up on the bases connection and look for another aerial base as some git has glued it in tight no no foo*ing tight :(.

I used loctite my ariel whips on, so they didn't get nicked. Till someone snapped the Base trying to nick it.

Well I suppose that may of happened, a pain tho as maybe it was my tugging to remove the aerial may have made it come loose, pain pain pain pain !!!!

Apologies if you posted the link already, but where did you get it from and how much please? Thanks. Considering changing my ariel as the radio reception isn't great at the moment. My wife's stock stereo gets better reception in the same area and she keeps reminding me of that

Here you go mate. :D

Cheers man. How is the reception with it? Looks so much slicker than the stock one and something I can definitely afford at the mo :)

And also, how hard/easy was it to install? Thanks

Better reception than stock ariel, 2 mins to install. Don't need any of the adapters, just had to use a small rubber o ring so the Ford badge was in the right place. :)

Cheers for all the info man. Appreciate it. Sounds like a good upgrade and would make my radio listening better :)
