Hi all, I have found a good deal (A good chunk lesser than standard market price) on Orsen Skid Plate in KL/ Selangor area, including installation. Exact price wise still unsure as we will need more people to tekan the boss kao kao for better price if we go in group. No deposit, no money involved. You pay direct to the boss. Zerohunter and I will go on 1st June (Saturday). Those who want to join us on that day are welcome. If we are able to get more people, we have more say in the price. Tekan here and there can let you do another small mod. Zerohunter is asking in FB, so whoever who has responded here, please do not put your name in FB.

Is it really that bad? Because the 2.0 comes with the insulator installed in factory. What I know is that they install this insulator for centre console only. Boot no insulation. I do not feel paticularly hot on my leg when I am driving. The cup area is warm but not that warm, but I certainly did not pay any attention to the boot area. My boot is empty for now and will not put anything (not even umbrella) until I have kids. I will observe also if it is really that hot.

You can try now,. Do not wait until you have kid or when you put anything there until too late to do something . Only the left leg toe is hot after insulation done by the SC. My is 1.6 SX . After insulation done, Console cup no more warm. passenger side no more warm, but only my left leg toe feel very warm . Maybe insulation not done it evenly ?
SC take a hour to do with my air cond on full blast. After insulation, if you on your air cond blowing at your leg area, the whole console will be very warm again. I think this is something to do with the car design. I do not know. Any way, the insulation materials is FOC ,please go and claim it if your car is not factory fitted.
As for the boot, any thing put inside will be "cooked" Try to experience it. The car is good, but still need further refinement

Alright. Today will be a good day to try out the left leg. Tomorrow morning will be a goodtime to try out the boot. But now that you mention, I do sweat on my foot when I am driving with sandals. Will take note later when I drive back.

But your statement confused me. SC took an hour to do (insulation) with your AC full blast? What is the purpose?

'After insulation, if you on your air cond blowing at your leg area, the whole console will be very warm again'. Shouldn't be cold if you blow AC to your leg?

This car is designed with the exhaust pipe running at the middle of the car. Hence the heat is travelling from front and end at the back (boot).

I did boot noise treatment. Not sure if I can feel the real effect in this case.

Ermm...my apologies, but I've overlooked another important element.
May I ask what sort of 'alphabets+numbers' will you provide at that promo price?

- Crystal numbers?
- Quality Fat and Short numbers?
- '3D-raised' but not Crystal numbers?
- Normal flat white numbers?

Your input on this will be very much appreciated smile.gif

if not mistaken it's atlantis v7, for me noise level is acceptable but the comfort and grip, no

DRL only is cheaper less complication. The eyeliner need to change the whole lamp right? Why not add DRL separately, then change the lamp to BMW projector style.
