Honestly? I can't see the difference between the light emitted through the stock H7 bulb and with the Osram night breaker (perhaps I'm just not sensitive enough). But when I installed the Osram on just 1 headlight, and then turn the headlights on, I can see that the light emitted through the Osram is whiter than the stock one (which is a bit yellow-ish). Hope that helps  tongue.gif .

how much is the normal H7 bulb and this Osram night breaker?

Hello guys,

I was considering to buy Forte 1.6SX, after letting go my NEO CPS. Changing car due to Marriage. I was hooked with Forte as my first sedan car for its interior, exterior, stability, full of specs, most of all, worth the value for each ringgit that I am going to spend.

However, today saw at Paultan, the official K3 has been released, and yes, I was really2 looking forward to this car! But, considering that I am sort of urgent to change to a 4 door car, do u guys could estimate, when the K3 will be coming to Malaysia? And roughly, does it worth the wait? Or, just bought forte this year, and changed for K3 when it comes to Malaysia then?

THank you!!
*
dun think, just buy forte now and buy K3 when itz launched in msia thumbup.gif
i think k3 will be here only in 2014, worth to wait or not itz up to u (and ur need)
i was waiting for elantra more than a year, the launching keep on delayed and finally the price like......
i think u may consider the price of k3 also, still as worth as current forte? or much more expensive to protect Potong?
anyway, just my 2cents. u judge it by urself

very good bro, cabin temperature cools down very fast..when park under hot sun, inside just a bit warm..but after u turn on the air cond (depending how high u turn on la), in a while maybe less than a minute, not hot anymore...i tested it when i went for melaka trip two weeks back, melaka is damn hot and sunny that day, then went to take my car, cooled down in a while after entering and got the engine started. then stop by to buy something, walked out and its so hot outside..

film its quite dark i would say, but still able to see inside la of coz. however, u will be able to see clearly from inside to outside. the SA claims that it is JPJ compliant as well, so if anything happens, i will sent the saman to him ..haaha...anyway, i think both of the front and rear windows are also tinted, but not as dark as the side windows la. especially at night, ppl using HID lamp also i tak takut, haha..anyway do u use the auto headlights? if yes, then you will have some problem...sometimes not too dark outside also it will auto turn on your headlights..but nvm la ..i still can live with it..

not too sure whether it will resist from smashing la ..but mine the Agard SN50 is 5 mil thick. maybe they have to put more effort to smash it la...hopefully it wont happen to me la ..

wat is the spec?

Your SA shld provide u with the whole registration info.

My case my SA gave me the info but then told me that I have to go to Naza Solution office in Jln 225 to update the firmware. Reach there they tried to get the GPS working but cannot. Blame it on my front tinting which was only 2Mil. They had to take out the whole HU and open the door so that the unit can register itself. The signal very weak. Even now first start up the GPS thingy damn slow.

So make sure they updated and initialize the GPS b4 you tint your windscreen.

u mean u cant update the firmware after tinting?
no prob to register speednavi right?

When I get my car my SA told me GPS cannot use yet. Have to go to Naza Solution to get new firmware. I dont know what they did but they say the GPS cannot initialize. So they had to take out the whole HU from the dashboard and expose the antenna. Apparently the GPS antenna is just above the clock.

Waited there for almost an hour.

Even now when I start the GPS seem very slow to initialize. Dunno whether tinting is the problem. Mine is only 2Mil front windscreen.

i din update my firmware
sa give me the code n i key in. register success

Went to Naza in jln 225 also they took out the whole unit and confirm no problem with the HU. Problem resolved after open a hole on the front windscreen, now i am able to get 3 to 4 bar GPS signal.

Just collected my Forte 1.6SX (Titanium Silver)
Please add me in  notworthy.gif

Now very excited to try out all the functions in the car. (upgraded from Saga)

Any hints for new car owner? To do:
1) Car wax/ coating first, or
2) Tinting, or
3) Buy gadgets in the car i.e. hook, coin holder etc etc.
4) Some other suggestions?  hmm.gif
*
1) many ppl go for coating
2) u try before and after tinting so tat u will appreciate ur tinting more
3) just buy watever u need
4) MOD: DRL, rims, tyre, eagle eye, UR bar etc

hehe, joking. i think better go for tinting first then coating if u dun wanna wax
all those coin holder etc u can buy later coz u will only know whether u really need them after a while
try to feel the tyre, change it asap to get better trade in price if u dun like it
try the horn, many fortezen think that itz hello kitty horn and even change horn b4 tinting smile.gif
just my 2cents tongue.gif

Haha... Hello Kitty Horn... but quite true also IMHO after my testing just now. any idea how much to change the horn?  laugh.gif
will opt to tint and coating asap....
tint - thinking of huper optik / 3M crystalline / some other brands maybe
coating - Permanon Coating by Waxson (any fortezen tried before?)
*
u can change horn at any autoshop, price from rm45
regarding coating, as i read, fortezen usually go for Permanon, SG or PPS

some think that the stock horn is too soft especially for a seg c car, so kitty sound is a description on the soft sound.
