Oh yeah, didn't notice the colour  Why do you want the traction control button? Surely the '03 didn't have traction control...Hmm will have to do some more research on the dash mats once we're out of lockdown |

Because the answers I'm getting tell me that the part numbers are the same for Falcon / Fairlane / Fairmont / Ghia / LTD They should be different for the models that have the clock, based on what I can see in your picture, so I would need to speak with my suppliers, who most likely aren't working during the lockdown. I could also use my part system at work, but not allowed on site during lockdown, and certain NZ website features have been removed during lockdown to prevent people from non-essential shopping. Kinda limits my options for research

Black interior does look a lot nicer  The futuras are full electric? So just the XT with manual rears? If I remember rightly the e-series (EF at least) the futura had front electric, but you had to get fairmont to have full electric windows. |

Why do you not want to use BA / BF in your one? Just to be different, or do you not like them? |
