Niiceeee, im glad it worked :-)

fixed the wheel bearing issue, now the abs sensor decided to fall to pieces as i removed and installed the knuckle, fml.....

So now the cars with no abs, an must say feels much better for some reason hahahaha... kinda has more pedal feel to it when braking...

But on the hunt for abs sensor for right hand front, so if anyone has one, the line, socket, sensor itself, let me know asap... the abs light is annoying to look at

cut the abs wire off the cluster or put duct tape over it

yep theyre reps but i got good ones.. with just the mirror being carbon fibre not the whole thing which looks tacky.. and the electric movement works well. good investment for only 110 delivered from US.. as my old electric mirrors were both cracked and damaged

lol you're right i can't find a fault with mine except that the chassis is a bit bendy which can be fixed somewhat with frame braces.

These arrived in the mail the other day :)

Yep, genuine Recaros - they sent me the brochure and off memory I think there was black, blue and red... I'll try post up the pic when I find it or just email them...

Only thing is the velcro on the back of the head pad doesn't stick to the SR3 alcantara, but it's simply a matter of getting a black strap and velcro sticky thing from Spotlight, running it through the holes and should be all good to go.

The padding isn't huge in them, but see how they go - good thing is you can always unvelcro the head pads and add more padding inside if you need it.

Oh, should keep the gf happy too - she won't keep banging her head on the back of the seat anymore LOLZ :)
