This is good reply.. I can slowly brain it.. if i want to do #2, then i might as well skip #1 and finish #2 first right? or the sequence doesn't matter?

So airbags and abs/ebd is "possible" at the driver's risk le right?

What is exoga brakes? macam cannot find any info on it.

Coolkwc gotta point there. If you want EBD lar, ABS lar, airbag lar, somany things can cost you more than 10k in total. Its better to sell off your car, top up 10k to get FLX SE if you die die also wanna have a GaGa with all that feature.

My suggestion is bearly sufficient for a hardcore modder. Let me remphasize my point again.

brake upgrades other than ABS
1) Brake disc upgrade allow your brakepad friction area bigger, faster ventilation. Budget around RM500 dependig on disc grade+labor different
2) Assume you have more budget, mod to use Plotong mia MPV Exoga brake. But the hub is 5 holes, need to upgrade rim+tyre as well. So it will cost a bomb!
3) Cheapest way to upgrade brake force. Ask magician to set loose rear drumbrake a little bit, so your front disc brake work harder. Let's not forget engine + gearbox infront, so front part definitely need more brake force. Normally adjust drumbrake FOC. If necessarily, open the hub brake, take out the drum brake shoes and slot lines so your rear brakes will work exactly like multiple cylinder brakes!I used to do this a lot. Downside is, brakepad very fast wear off. Normally within 1 year all brakes need to change pad ady.

[Color=blue]So, my suggestion is #3. If got extra fund, go for #1. If so damn rich, go for #2 then.[Color]

air bag
1) Buy a pillow, stick it on your steering wheel
2) Don't change to after market steering. Many times during accident those "so called" racing steering wheel material too cheap, broke off and penetrate victim's chest that kills.
3) Don't change to after market bumper. Be it FRP/PU or fibre. Afaik there is very little(or none) of these pretty bumper came with impact rebounce/crumple point.

[Color=blue] do all this 3 if safety is priority. Adding airbag need to flash/change ECU. Safety belt anti lock feature also needed. With a modded airbag is much dangerous than without 1[color]

Finally, Z1 is right. Safety is about your subconcious, your spirit, your morale. If you think you're too fast, just slow down. Have enough sleep and drive sensually. When people wanna bang you, what skill also no use. If its an emergency, you just brake, if tayar locked, just release and press few more times. If its an accident, turn off ignition, take the key out and stay away from the car. Hook a fire extinguisher in car, when needeed you have it. Rather than spend all those hard earn cash for those luxury that we missed. To quote our senior member who crashed into a tree but survived, "drive so fast for what?".

Hi...
Does its other (bottom) end looks exactly the same?

If so, it's the rubber tubing pc that fits onto the end of the Glove Compartment/Box stopper. Kinda cushions it when the Glove Box is opened.
Slides onto the protruding plastic pc that stops the Glove Box from opening fully.

Hope my explanation is clear enuf.

There are 2 of them...one on the LHS & another one exactly the same on the RHS of the Glove Box.
Chk which one is missing....
Tends to come off fr time2time. Me glued it on with a little contact adhesive. tongue.gif

yaya. at home. but not mine lah. I not sure, but is full spec variant. need to confirm.
maybe is 60 also. XD not really got observe the car, only drive it.
at first i tot kena con coz my family say want buy FLX. So i suggest them to go for full spec. when they get the car i realised is FL rclxub.gif
then i go ask them, they say urgent need car, FLX had to wait. So they get the FL. The pickup can really feel the pull even though is a 1.3 compared to my persona. but steering feel heavier. but the engine braking sometimes make the driving feel less comfort. what i like is the headlamp which i dont know why the stock headlamp brightness is in par with the philip xtreme vision i changed to my persona.
