nope they dont match up by the dash, or the colour of the plastic

correcto!

needs a PhSlow dash to fit the PhSlow door cards.

 

[kpowell911]

oh i see wasnt aware they fitted differently

Phase 2 door cards look so much nicer Looks like phase 1 172 cards then

does PF Slow refer to a phase 1 or phase 2?

 

[fUbAr]

does PF Slow refer to a phase 1 or phase 2?

PhSlow is what i call Ph2's... because, well... they're slow

 

[RichMcc]

everyone knows the phase 1 is soooo much better.... well us RS1 boys do anyway

Interior just lets it down.

*chuckles*

 

[kpowell911]

lol they are all the same to me, dont really like the sport models tho tbh, the 182 trophy looks ok tho.

Will a phase 2 dash and centre consloe fit then

 

[fUbAr]

yep, you can fit a complete PhSlow dash into a PhQuick no problem... gonna be a mission getting hold of one though. Need both parts, top and bottom

 

[kpowell911]

lol i have to keep scrolling up to check out which one is which You and your slang

hmm, I think ill just get loadsa fibreglass stuff on my existing dash, would loive to stick a FULL 182 trophy interior into my 1.2 RN

 

[fUbAr]

what about the Ph1 172 door cards?

they'll fit no problem with your current dashboard

 

[fUbAr]

 

[kpowell911]

They are the ones im looking for with the electric window switch there, all the other ones its on the speaker housing and looks well dated.

I dont have electric mirrors though.

I've got the metal 182 door handles too.

How much ca n ipick up a pair of those 172 door cards for?

 

[fUbAr]

yeah ive got the 182 handles in there now too.

you shouldnt have a problem with the mirror switch, it just wont do anything! lol

you will have to extend the window switch wires a little bit to locate them in the new position, but thats quick and easy to do

 

[kpowell911]

looks like ill get them, with the electric window conversion kit (£179 brand new)

any ideas how much 172 door cards will be?

also would like those bits covering your mirrors as mine were manual (now they are just mirrors lol) ive got holes, didnt think of putting 172 bits in there

 

[fUbAr]

find yourself a good breakers yard.

172 interior parts are very popular on here so dissapear quite quickly!

 

[kpowell911]

my cars just failed the mot so leccy window conversion is off the cards atm

 

[Djw John]

Shitter, what did it fail on?

 

[kpowell911]

bottom ball joints.

it has bein on 18s since the day it was purchased 7 yrs ago. not too bad they arent that expensive are they? he said my pads were legal but a bit low, so i've git some new ones going on.

he said my ball joints werent too bad, but im going to be doing alot of motorway miles with my girlfriend in my car so i want my car right. I'd rather a strict mot, so that my cars right and more importantly safe

 

[Djw John]

Yeah saw your other thread and replied to that!

Yeah thats a good point mate, Id prefer a lax MOT where I pass but they guy tells me to fix things, gives you more time that way!

 

[kpowell911]

Id rather em strict and 100% legit, because of my age and car i drive, i get alot off hassle from the filth, i know im 100% legal that way and they cant touch me.

Makes me sleep easier. I hear of people geeting let off on major things, goign round with dodgy certificates, thats all well and good, but id rather be inconvenienced, and pay abit mroe for that piece of mind.

last thing i want is a part to fail at high speed with my girlfriend in the car, just cause i skimped on my mot.

Same with tyres, I always changed 2 at once, never just one.

im fickey on things like this, which is good i suppose, but hurtswhats left of your savings lol
