    A few little mods added (pics)

    Got smoke wind deflectors from OCTIMEX off ebay from Germany, personally I love them, do the job too as no more rain runs in off the roof as I like to drive with window open..

    opinions






    Also just ordered a K and N induction kit with pipe and heatshield, going to try and fit it into standard box with pipes coming out so filter isn't affected by the heat to much....Positioning off to the RHS of engine on my T4 so surely Heat might not be too much off a problem..

    ANybody any issues with Ind kits on their T4's?

    Not generally a fan of deflectors but they look nice. I hate the way the rain drops in

    I recommend getting the wind deflectors, got um on me V70R and they do work very well and being someone who enjoys the odd ciggy you can still have a puff when its raining, less wind noise aswell.

    Be warned though OE ones from the Dealers for the Fronts only are about
    £85...!!

    I think they suit your car due to the colour blends in well.

    Very subtle. Not that intrusive to the overall look of the car.
    Let us know how you go on with the K&N kit? Thinking of doing something similar to my s70. Noisey when you hit the loud pedal!!!!!
    Power is nothing without control!
