Also can you check How much does those mud flaps cost? Did you get the floor mats along? Mud flaps and mats are still not available in blore.

Hello everyone,
thanks for everyone who has been following this thread.i have attached pics of both my K&N filter and wobbly bolts(placed in my home's mosaic floor) which have reached me from the UK.sorry for the bad quality pics.Thanks to my Sony P1i phone cam.

Vignesh

NutsNBolts · 6th October 2009, 21:35

Congrats Vignesh. Do let us know your experience with new shoes and the K&N filter.

vigneshram · 7th October 2009, 07:05

Guys,
for those of you who want to know what is the difference in dynamic.Dynamic comes with the dials of the Emotion pack.But active has a different dial with a small display.and the screen doesnot provide date and day and also information about which door is open.So that makes a lot of difference.the factory fitted central lock is also great.unlike the after market ones..BTW K&N has been installed by me DIY.

.The car feels a little more spirited than before.
