Clutch Modification
Well I've just finished the clutch mod and I'm amazed at the difference Surprised , this really should be the first thing that anyone does, it just makes the clutch feel more like a car and no more left leg like Arnie. Quadrant CP is on and so is the Old School Land Rover metal badge for the rear, now I'm undecided if I should take off the LRX (early KDX) grill and surrounds and put back to OE so then I can fit light guards front and rear and look out for a genuine Abar? I purchased off Thiefbay (stop laughing) a genuine looking Abar that is actually solid plastic/fibreglass and is starting to split already and doesn't fit so that is going back and lesson learnt Embarassed

SVX lookalike seats ordered from Chris so looking forward to fitting those Bad Boys, has anyone put a heated seat kit in them yet if so how much? It's all starting to come together now so looking forward to some good journeys in her to enjoy the hard work and money spent.

If I could post pictures I would but the good old iPad doesn't want to help with this.

Cheers Life is one big adventure, that's why we have the vehicle for the journey.

Well quite, one wouldn't want ones left leg to atrophy would one... Wink Wink

Brilliant mod especially for folks that spend time in traffic.

I am assuming you pedal with equal force using both legs so I'm wondering if you need to fit a stronger spring to your accelerator pedal to stop you pressing it too hard Very Happy
