guys, for you that need rear speaker board, Brothers Puchong branch have it, left 6 piece. rm58 for the board, installation labour i'm not too sure...

Hi guys. I am planning to change the light bulbs hidden behind the air cond control switches in the dashboard. My kenari 04 dahsboard lights are getting very dim now. Any idea what type of bulb to use? I prefer led bulbs as I think they will be much brighter.

Thanks bro. How about the bulb for the gear indicator. Mine is auto & the current bulb is green color
Another thing is I'm planning to buy one of those center cluster panel with so called "songkok" at the top. I have a double din player in the original slot below. Any suggestions on what to install in the "songkok"??

I have to admit, those deep dish rims really do look amazing on a Kenari.
The extra effort required to install them however, not so.
"Songkok"? Mind giving a photo to clarify what you mean? I don't quite get the reference.

Oh I see. That means if I want the songkok then have to upgrade the whole dashboard to L9!!! But I saw in mudah.my that it is just plug and play in kenari. There is no mentioning about replacing the whole dashboard.

No, I mean do you know of any standalone GPS unit that will fit into that top storage slot?

installation cost??

I can see why, the L9 dashboard does look very nice.

By the way, does anyone here have experience with K3VET?

No point convert such powerful engine when the car itself is build as a city commuter...

Basically unstable, n don't waste money souping up the car. Use it as it is, economical city car will do.

Interesting article there for those who need to replace the stock dashboard with move L9 dashboard.
I paid a visit to a shop at sunway earlier today & found out they offer lots of move parts from halfcuts. The front grill with 4 separate headlamps really got my attention. That guy in the shop says RM80 for the grill, RM160 for the lights & RM60 for installation cost. Total 300 bucks. Is it a good buy? The grill & lamps looks perfectly fine of course with some minor scratches.
Then I ask about the center panel can it be modded into stock dashboard. That guy again say yes. Price is RM150 for the panel and RM60 for installation. Again I wish to ask is the price quoted ok?

just a little bit of opinion on these engine mention above.

drove one fitted with K3VE before, fitting with Kenari stock size semi slick tire. straight line performance is really good! but when comes to curvy road which i concern a lot, it's not so cool, it's hard to put power down to the ground when cornering even on semi slicks. so not to mention anything about K3VET. unless you guys decided to cut the wheel arch and slam in 195/50R15.

on the 660cc turbo, forget about it unless you want the turbo spooling sound. been in a drag with Kancil 660cc turbo before, i'm with my Kenari auto, the Kancil got slightly faster before 90km/h and after that the Kancil didn't manage to keep up with me anymore.

on the installation/conversion part of K3 (not sure on 660 turbo), you will have to use YRV subframe and engine mounting. lower arm, drive shaft and front antiroll bar got to be Kenari to prevent the tire come out from the fender. and to pair Kenari lower arm and front antiroll with the YRV subframe, you'll need to force installation on antiroll bar together with the lower arm on the the YRV subframe, which from my observation it will put stress on the lower arm bush and antiroll bar end-bush.

additional information:

on the front brake conversation, different between YRV front brake and Myvi front brake:
brake caliper: same
brake carrier: YRV bigger / Myvi smaller
brake disc: diameter 246mm for YRV / diameter 234mm for Myvi (note: initial thickness for both disc are the same, 16mm)
brake pad: same, interchangeable between YRV & Myvi

yes, front is heavier. in another word, conversion need to include custom absorber, due to the ready stock aftermarket absorber is meant for Kenari stock engine only. those in the market that claimed: "yes we have for adjustable for Kenari YRV" is actually using higher spring rate to compensate, imho, absorber damping rate is far more important then spring rate.

afaik, 660cc turbo is running around 66bhp. but in real life, no replacement for displacement. and i don't think much people can afford to get the turbo running on really healthy condition, most of the people i get to know have problem with their turbo.

oh my~ 1300 boleh tukar engine.

tommi got any workshop recommended at PJ area??

oh thank you bro... hehehe

I am thinking of replacing my rear tail lamps to the aerodown move type tail lamps since one of my tail lamp has cracked. My question is will the "Move aerodown" tail lamp plug & play into my kenari??
I noticed that the aerodown tail lamp is longer and jutting out on the upper portion. Do I need to purchase another spoiler or roof rack so that it will look nicer overall? Appreciate responds from sifus out there. Thanks

I think it'll look like this (attachment) after changing. I kind of like the upgrade.

Wooooaaaaa.... Now I'm confused between aerodown, aerosport, rs, peanut, etc!!! Can provide some sample photos for cross reference & also for my knowledge.

In fact my wife is working in dsara perdana but she'll be busy the whole day. I'll contact u to arrange a suitable time & date. Thanks.

Million thanks for your effort in explaining. I have got myself the Move Peanut tail lamp which comes with a black spoiler with third break led lamp. Got it for 290. I'll take some snapshot after I send the spoiler for painting & install the whole thing.

Thanks a lot Tommi88
Will consider to upgrade this .. but my kenari is already 10years old.. hehe
By the way, any good place to get genuine k&n filter? Afraid of some counterfeit products in the market
