Default Couple of q's!!

Hi all,

Two questions here,


1) Can someone tell me if the original wheel bolts i have for my standard wheels will okay to use with my new 7 spoke softlines or do i need longer ones etc?? Been told i need different ones.

2) Ive got a FMIC with twin fans that the missus bought me, my question is where do i wire the fans up to or what do i do with them??


Many thanks

Neil

You need different wheel bolts (Ghia ones) for the RS 7 spokes you can get them from speedshack or they do them on ebay

Thanks!! Yeah thats what i was told for the wheel bolts. Will get that sorted out!!

The FMIC has 2 blower fans, so they just need to be wired in the fan loom????

Cheers

As said above wire them into the fan loom or put them on a separate switch so you can control when you want them on.
