New Shape Connect (Late 2013 on) What Mods?

Postby Pipe Butcher » Wed Apr 29, 2015 1:24 pm

Hi All, Just wondering what mods you guys are doing and what can be done? When I had an Astravan we did stuff like changing standard washer jets to Insignia misting jets, Retrofit cruise control and turned other stuff on like anti hijack locking.

Doesn't look like many of these have been messed about with yet on this side of the pond the Yanks have started and the Germans have started doing some stainless/ chrome bits. Have ordered some scuff plates I'll put some pics up once fitted. Thinking about fitting an amp,Sub and some components but have to do some research on doing this.

I always find ebay is a good starting point but I have been dissapointed by the lack of mods available for my Connect Grand Tourneo Titanium which aas registered September 2014. I had to have a full set of mats made as nobody made them!

Armrest is the one thing I seriously miss from my Astravan, Looks like there's a fitting point behind the centre seat but I can't seem to find anyone with one to look at.

The Tourneo Titanium has as standard fit a folding arm rest which mounts on the centre side of the drivers seat back frame. I would imagine the arm rest can be bought from Ford and hopefully your seat frame back has the necessary mount fitted

Just an FYI. I have the armrest on my Tourneo Grand Connect (2014) - it gets in the way of the handbrake when down so don't find myself using it much.
