    yeah aggreed strut brace would be cool, but unlike the T5 owners who can get the genuine brace at a resonable price, the T4 volvo brace is about £170 which is shockin!!!

    mavv - looks cool dude, think i might invest in the new bailey DV36

    I can bring one up from Kings of Witcham if you like. Although Partsforvolvo is about the same price and great fast delivery. Dead easy to fit and you'll notice a huge difference in handling.

    EDIT: 4000 yay!

    How do you stop the battery shorting out

    Pull the foam out of the airbox as well.

    Looking good.
