At last the Genuine Ford ST 18" alloys wheels, I got from Ebay have arrived - came complete with alloy wheel nuts & Ford Locking Kit

Just need to get tyres now - I should think 225/40/18 XL is the size I require. ALthought I will refurb the rims before getting tyres fitted.

Thanks, I've worked hard with convincing myself since I bought it that there is potential, but the rims, window tinting and removing badges helped :)
Lowring have to wait until the warranty expires I guess... :roll:

The rear lights I got from eBay I returned back, as they were not E marked & could not obtain bulb holders!

But I got a geniune pair with bulb holders & bulbs direct from EMG Ford for £108 !!

finaly managed to get a couple of pictures (although very poor) of recaros i got recently off ebay for a bargain price of £68!! very poorly advertised as only one seat shown on advert which was new but covered in dust and the other was wrapped in bubble wrap!!
used another set of drivers runners which i swapped the rear feet on so they bolted to the floor directly and used two lengths of 2" box section per seat to bolt between seat and runners and hey presto two seats both on runners looking good feeling great.
