So many UNknown variables...besides those forwarded by Bro koh_424...
Eg.
Full tank as in till run dry...?
City/Hiway?
Type of driver?
Aircon on/off? Settings?
Stock rims/tyres?
Load?
Etc, etc, etc...

As is, NO comment wld b correct.
Sorry...sad.gif

ps. Most Saga owners drive theirs juz 2enjoy the ride, NOT the FC... tongue.gif
They dun buy Sagas for its FC ratings... thumbup.gif

1) RM60 petrol, run until 210km left 1 bar. (Petronas RON95 for first full tank)
2) City, normally very short distance (travel from house to school and back home about 4km whole journey)
3) I never step hard on throttle, rpm normally around 1.5k to 2k, hardly above. I dun accelerate fast as well, just let it slowly pick up the speed.
4) Normally 1 to 2 passengers, no heavy loads. (few laptops maximum)

Short distance & stop run will cause more fuel to burn.

neh, main reason.

going slow doesn't mean you're saving fuel. In fact, the most efficient speed is around 80-90kmh.

Re 15" rims prob, then how is it FLX no prob with them?
Came oledi fitted with Ori 15" rims...
Same body...same fenders, rite?
Mayb cos revised harder springs & shocks?

Re Key Ring, good result!! Me still trying 2find easy & best way 2do wiring of LEDs.

Re Door Rubber Seal, yu got great idea there!! Instead of cutting off...slight extension?
*
FLX SE came wt std 195/50/15, offset is inward exactly like 424 mentioned. Therefore u hv no problem with tayar sangkut issue(not permenant) until 1 day you have full load,whilst in tauke action then sangkutlah icon_idea.gif overall, new SAGA+old SAGA share the same setup for the rear arch, wide rim/tyre kena absorber/fender arch. If u able to find thin rim & correct ofset, u have no worry, for example:

13 rim jejari 5.0 = 175/70R13
Tak sangkut

14 rim jejari 5.5 = 185/60R14
Tak sangkut

15 rim jejari 6.0 = 195/50R15
Kalau offset outward,sangkut fender

16 rim jejari 6.5 = 205/40R16
Kalau offset outward,sangkut fender; if inward offset,sangkut absorber

17 rim jejari 7.0 = semua sangkut, kecuali potong fender,kasi offset outward then no problem, tapi keta macam big foot la ph34r.gif

Bear in mind, most 15" rim already wide 6.5 inch, so unless u go for FLX SE rim provided tyre series remain 50 or below(if any). Alternatively, get thinner rim.

To conclude, rim15 & above, poning kepala :star:

For the door frame seal, I sampei umah dah lewat, can't find anything to cut the extras. The 1st strip I did was driver's side, carik carik talak gunteng, so I pakei nail clipper to cut the extra sad.gif after half an hour hardwork, finally cut off the extras. Masa tu dah tengah malam, out of tired and frustration, I tulan pull off the safety belt cover... Ish! Senang! shakehead.gif so, I only spend less than 10 minutes to bikin the rest of the 3 doors, no need cut anything, just use the seat belt cover to cover them all smile.gif

Key ring lite was done by Ah Wai from Yau Yip. Paid him kopi duet then kautim. Tapikan, don't have timer/cut off mechanism. Usual key ring RULES as below:

1) Door open=on
2) Door close timer 20 seconds off
3) If door closed, start engine before 20 second, off lite over ruled condition2

So, currently simple aje la. Janji ada lampu rclxms.gif

Tks a meg 4comments, Bro! thumbup.gif
Conclusion...
1. 15" Rims : Best 2try get Ori FLX rims! And use 195/50R15 tyres.
2. Key Ring Light : Yup. Simple. However, got timer meh if ctrl-ed by door switch? Thot only on/off nia.
3. Door Seal: Yr way of NOT cutting off xtra provides easier install & xtra "block" length of seal.
But feel not need 2open plastic seatbelt covers. Can juz push in ends.
Unless yu din cut (the others) like shown in yr pics...

Enjoy yr upgraded Saga, Bro!! rclxms.gif
