Yes thanks, so it'll be a standard firmament pump for the custom or we both have something added but at least now i don't think it was for a heater added onto my hilti stuff. :D

The planar is fitted :P
Due to the floor being in the way the case was fowling the fan so nowt was happening :-( so my mate Stanley and his mate gaffer sorted that out :lol:

It took a bit but the pump started gulping then eventually I felt heat off the fan which went even faster.

I need more bits, I'm having fault codes, cruise control module, cruise control buttons, steering control module etc which is a good sign because it means the software is there but I'm not sure they actually made adaptive cruise control for the custom, would love to know for sure though, if not can I get the hardware? Will focus ones fit? My head hurts :-(

It speeds you up and slows you down using a forward radar on the vehicle in front so I can set cruise control and get the guy in front doing all the work :lol: go on suckerz! 8)

I have removed nearly all of the bott but have 2 bits left.

I noticed the van floor will be like a tea bag with all the holes in it once the floor is removed :-( best stay away from water or I'll go down quicker than the titanic :-(

Holes from your bott :lol: :lol: :lol:

8) sound good that cruising control, I just slipstream the vehicle in front :shock: no I don't really, that would be silly really :lol:

You'll have to welderup (the floor holes not the doors) can you hear the rust coming, sounds like a plague of locus I believe. N

No no no that's regular standard normal rust my good man :-)

Ford rust is special, so special in fact the promo video of a customer buying a new car and attempting to drive it off the forecourt before the rust set in went disastrously wrong and they didn't air it :(

Adaptive cruise :?: Go on, you know you want to :P Just try not to think about the price of the radar unit :shock:

Having driven the Focus with it fitted, I don't now want to bother fitting ordinary cruise to the Mk7, because it's useless with todays traffic, which keeps slowing down and speeding up randomly :roll:
It frightened the wife last week (yes she's worked out how to use it!) when a car cutting in front of her caused it to slam the brakes on :lol:

I have 2 hill assists on hill launch assist and hill decent assist although I don't think I know if it does anything :lol:
Also I'm not sure I have the wiring diagrams for the radar unit, can I retrofit it by guessing where? Will it even communicate?

Probably not :lol:

Although there is a picture I posted from bemm of the custom with a radar in the o/s grille :-)
