SOLD.
Hi all, I have 1 set of original Mobis Window Visor to let go. Just arrived yesterday. Brand new. Box also have not open.

Reason to sell is that my wife booked the same for me as a surprise. When the set I booked arrived yesterday, she was shocked why the package is under my name.

When I said I booked it 2 days ago, she said she booked the same thing. So by next week, I will ahve 2 same sets. Hence I want to let go my set.

Who is interested please feel free to PM me.

this question very subjective. but however so far i nvr receive any complain from customer regarding summon issue and so on. better dont use italic font, too fancy and short fat design. better with standard font size which around 7cm x 4cm. if really worry / scare, use back original font but customize plate? i believe this wont bring any issue

if kia forte group plan to get in bulk, i can give special price. font are high quality which we giving warranty on 1 to 1 exchange. currently in LYN / cari forum, i got the most font design. price range will be around 115 ~ 125. what u guys can get? 2 set of car plate, which mean front and rear.
1 set = 7 numbering + plate + frame / cover
customize service for rear car plate have additional RM10 charges.

Whoa this group has ALOT of posts ......
I'm a brand new Kia Forte 1.6sx titanium grey owner ! I had originally planned to wait until the k3 is launched in malaysia but can't wait any longer plus the k3 will definitely be over my budget which is below rm90k
I have yet to go for my first service, so far everything is good, just I'm feeling alot of bumpiness while driving...maybe cuz of bad Malaysian roads... Is this normal?
Loving the features of the car , the touch screen HU is kinda buggy with sound from cd and radio sometimes cutting off randomly....
Is there anyway to update the main HU so version ? And I can't seem to register my speednavi on the website because I don't have the serial key.... It's not listed in the manual .....

If radio sometimes cutting off on certain area, then I think should be find. But you can check with SC since everything is under warranty.

The serial key should get from your SA.

I believe your car is still in stock condition right? It was not bumpy for me at all. The low profile tire definitely plays a role in comfort when you go through pot holes. The rear suspension is too soft for my liking.

My radio, cd, music from thumbdrive will not cut off unless I have incoming calls. Go check and see if your version is the most updated. Speednavi code is from SA. Chase him for the code. Else install Papa.

Also, it is time for mobis visor + shark fin antenna.

SHARK FIN ANTENNA GROUP BUY

Price

VG Mark II Shark Fin Antenna = USD 69 (Firm)
Freight (for 5 to 15 units) = USD 80 to 150
Exact Freight Saving = Unknown 1
Tax = Unknown 2
Maybank Forex as of 16 May 2013 = 3.0660
Forex Lost = Unknown 3

So the price formula will be as below:-

[(69+28)*3.0660] - Unknown 1 + Unknown 2 + Unknown 3

Unknown 1

Price for unit is firm. USD 69 per piece. The only saving is on freight. From their email I perceive that the 5 unit's freight is USD 80. Hence, 1 unit's freight is USD 16 instead of 28. If 15 units, freight is USD 10 per piece. However this only applies for 5 units and above. If we cannot achieve 5 pcs, the freight price will be requoted.

Unknown 2

Tax according to the price of senior member, they got it without tax from the same source I am getting.

Unknown 3

Forex changes daily. If Forex gain means we save bit more. If Forex lost we all need to bare the differences.

Terms

I AM NOT THE SELLER

I will close and proceed to book by 23rd May at least one piece for myself regardless of the gathered quantity. I am already prepared to pay RM300 for the antenna. Whether we can or cannot achieve a bigger quantity for group buy and discount, I will let you guys know the final price after negotiation but subject to Unknown 2 and Unknown 3.

As the amount is not small, I will need at least RM 300 to be banked into me first before I order. I cannot afford FFK. Putting 2 left over sirip ikan yu on my car’s doors is not sexy. Just incase Unknown 2 and Unknown 3 applies, I will ask for top up. If there is saving and the total charge is less than 300, I will refund upon delivery, or via Maybank.

About the paint code, their paint code NAME is different from NAZA’s paint code NAME. I have seen pictures and I would say it is same. I will take the risk for my own purchase. So please do not bombard me if the colour comes out to be slight different/ not up to your expectation. If yours is different by slight, mine will be too.

This is the plug and play functioning fractal antenna that I have found (besides those that need you to disassemble your whole stock antenna base or those only for aesthetic purpose). This one is just stick on with an internal cord connected to your stock antenna base. I have NOT tried using this before hence I have no personal review. I have read through all 18 version of thread and there is not enough data to say this will maintain, upgrade or downgrade the radio signal, but no one seems to be complaining. What I have read is that it will have different effect on different channel. I have no identification of which channel will be affected. So I am taking the risk here too. Therefore please don't shoot me if the signal thingy does not go your way.

For those who need this, I can help in getting them. I earn no money from this. Therefore, if you need me to post them to you, you need to pay for the inland freight (SkyNet, Pos Laju). I can find time to meet around KL (Bukit Jalil, Mid Valley Area) and Selangor (Shah Alam, Klang). For those who are interested in Group Buy, please provide your detail as below. Serious buyers only please.

Example:-
Qty x Year Make Model Style - Color Name / Color Code
(Qty: 1 x 2013 Kia Forte 4-Dr Sedan - Titanium Silver / V03)

Well, what I am afraid is FFK. This is not a very hot cake selling item and it is customise. If I have one or 2 stuck means I will be keeping it like forever.

If you have trust issue, please let me know. We shall talk over PM. If you need, I pass you my IC + company name card so that you know where to find me. But if I deliver and you publish my identity, you are dead tongue.gif

Hello, I've been driving my Forte for about 2 months plus now. I notice that the rear suspension are too soft. Whenever I go through a road bump or 2 person siting behind, the rear tyre is like hiting the rear fender or the body frame of the car. Is this normal for all Forte?

How to solve this issue? Change the rear suspension?

Not so serious la. I also found that the rear suspension is too soft to my liking, but it does not hit my fender or body. I am saying this because I often have both my parents and brother as my passenger with my wife at the front.

Don't change suspension first. Add spring cushion. Or you can add stiffening ring. But I dont think you should add both at once.

VG claim to use "Pre-installed 3M custom double-sided adhesive gasket". I think should not fly off since so many have used this since Mark I. This one that we are getting is Mark II.

I've sticked the VG sharkfin since 2010. Yet to fly off until now ;p

Just make sure u clean the surface thoroughly from any dirts n oil before u stick it..that will do the trick.
