Dare I ask how much? Dewitts aren't always afraid of adding a zero or two

They should be a good fit as Sean managed to get nearly all the original moulds for the Carbon Trim panels and internal tanks etc
I had the 1st set made from the moulds which were test fitted & slightly tweeked before other set went into production

And as for the price they were very reasonable for the fit & quality of an original Motorsport item

Have to Agree with Ricko they are a top product and no messing with the fit which means alot and also the price is fair but also i have bought alot of my items from Sean in Dewitts over the last few years.

Not seen this before, just read back through the whole thread, incredible build well done.
Not on the same scale but been putting mine together over last 3 years, with work and life and the little amount that gets done on the car it's hard to look at it and see progress when it's your own, just one day it clicked and I though damn I'm nearly there, first drive out will be worth every penny and every hour you've spent

Thanks Fella, Yes it does be hard to see the finish line but it is there. Along the way i got fed nearly sold it and then let it sit for a few years but glad i kept it and stuck at it. As it's great to just walk into the shed and look at it . Only Thing i personally get told buy lads is even as it a wrc built and spec'd car it's not worth the money i put in or near the return of a m-sport build wrc. That use to get me down but not now So your just right come to the end you know the car you have got and what it took to get it there.

It's an incredible build and it's for you, what you wanted, it's not like you can do this sort of thing often, maybe even once and I'm sure you'll get the use out of it to make money a distant memory, the car you've based it on is one of my all time favourite cars and I'm not even a fan of the escort, keep the updates coming

How do you get on with the Stilo noise cancelling? Could you hear other cars and traffic if used on the road?


Love that interior

The Stilo kit is brilliant. Best I have rallied with.

Why are you lacking volume? I have the WRC kit and the only time I get poor volume is when I miss-match headsets. e.g. use a peltor adaptor on my stilo intercom. They just don't work.
Stilo helmet to Stilo helmet no issues. An amazing system.

I am using all stilo equipment Markk helmets and practice headsets just i seem myself to want better volume i can hear anyone in the co-driver seat but this falls on my hearing that i would like another bit.but yes this is a Great bit of kit Bluetooth is very good as well and great for in car footage as you can connect the stilo to the sound.

Thanks for this and useful to know as I was considering Peltor helmet etc but I will stick to all Stilo on this advice.

I see you are running the same Indicator (etc..)controls as me on the steering wheel and the same power panel switch as me too.

The Escort in WRC trim just looks sooo cool, the extra wide arches, that front bumper and the rear wing...
