think not too worry, also observing here for newly changed (after oct) crack again.. think maybe local AD change the screen to some cheapo type thats y crack.. think original UV cut screen should not have this issue..

btw, just checked last nite.. steering wheels button all comes with back lit.. as well thumb feel... just to answer some here..

Oh someone in town..!! whaaaa looking for poisons?
maybe can meet up??? haaa...
btw.. i am going to installl my bodykit finally! woohoo..

ehhhhh i dont get the alarm thingy?
is it if someone hijack ur car, den since no alarm, it wont trigger anything? meaning it will just keep quiet?

what alarm are u guys actually talking about? haha im confused...

[/quote]

defaults unit comes with only central lock/unlock + immo (not too sure.. ?)

[quote=bomberman,Dec 4 2009, 12:22 PM]
ya... Our Forte is look so Premium and classy ....
but Captor Alarm will required annual / montly fee leh.... its not 1 time charges..... correct me if i'm wrong....
i believe you install a GSM alarm will help already...

[/quote]

Me too going for GSM, anyone can help share how much is it in msia? check manual can actually cut engine thru mobile control, auto start.. lock / unlock from mobile.. pretty decent already..

[quote=phelix,Dec 4 2009, 12:23 PM]
yes.. there's wiring involved to supply power to light it up.
it's really cool.. but if those who paid extra 700 to extend to 5 years??
can only install after 5 years lo... not cool anymore the forte.. haha~
i'll prefer the LED tail light... i'm loving it~

[/quote]

think this is minor.. price stated includes that iirc.. basically they just link power line to back light terminal nia. very minor diy..

[attachmentid=1338594]

he said he went to port klang yesterday and left only black n white.. and each 1 for red n silver...
omg.. dun tel me im gonna get these color next week..
and he told me my car will b arriving next week..


hey guys,

i'm confusing with the color, is the color shown above is metal bronze or titanium silver?

[/quote]

think this is normal on photo.. hard to tell different.. but bronze is a bit brownish.. but on photo hardly much different.

is the new price for pug308 comes with moon roof type? what about CC308? convertible same? cos recent come across review of that car seems kind of avg..

digging on source...

At 96k, think is really a great bargain!.. now starts to understand y phelix is wondering on it too...heee..

whaaa.. wise... my senior colleague driving CC308.. damn swee.. but performance wise i must say "ahem.." driving pleasure totally off with the 4AT and small capacity.. wor... thats what i tot of silly CC308user..
no worry choice is yours.. man! at 114k hmm...

Added on December 6, 2009, 1:47 amhmm not bad for the rear if you ask me... basically if not FOC and super low trade back/, i would not even install it.. haaa.. extra weight == extra FC... Hiaz...

Wooo.. so bro. you collecting today! congrats...

just to up post some funny observation with forte yesterday (mind just up with BK) as i drive in JB during the weekend, many cars really do curious thing on forte..
like to block my way..., overtake.. and cut your lane..
so keep your cool, cos our forte really looks too cool OTR i think..

Cheers!

haa..
think many after fews years change car liao lo..haaa...

haaa.. no la.. we all are bro, ill squeeze every bit of my forte out.. before the 10 years
errrr... IIRC if you found oil behind your house.. tat belongs to state property wor..haaa... better not.. oil.. gold better??

just to check with all bros..
the remote comes with plug? or our forte is already using some wireless power charger... ???

whaaa... bro, lap test succeeded already for wireless power supply... so we could all power equipments without wire..
will up post the link if i could find it..
MIT Wireless demonstration...
but dun think this is to our dear car yet for many many years to come!.. anyone could open up the slot lit and see if really anything behind.. ???

Too bad.. i could not be richer then mr.gates liao

to what i think.. will need to replace remote batt lor.. if run low slot in the deck will provide passive RFID to start car but not recharge it la...

ya... basic science after all haaa....

its actually kia mah.. kinglong logo top stroke does not touch the edge... but it sure look 90% like king-long and Kumho (unless CI insist on square backing) haaa...

At 105RM think its a good price...
so anyone up with photo and review..???

thanks for spaceman for details review too.. agree to most, FC certainly acceptable to me but real problem is that H&T is overpriced everywhere....

think mirror pillar got to be extra careful leh.. once bended / pulled.. bye bye liao wor...

hei.. phelix..

thinking back, now i got see the push button + immo, any chance after the original kit?

damn my car now missing this part!!!!
