But I'm the only one who gives out information on here frequently.... (awaits Peter Ballard to pop up....)

The Mulfab ones and mine are very similar- only a few detail differences in material and manufacturing methods, both use a clamp around the leaf spring to control the panhard rod. The SSL version replaces the U bolt plate on one side- it works , but means that for cars fitted with the fuel pump behind the drivers seat, that a cranked panhard bar must be fitted which in my opinion isn't the most elegant engineering solution

So I have carried out 3 modifications - but only "remembered" the cheapest - The BRB's @£40

I'm now researching Panhard Rods ............. I do fancy fitting them myself - Wish I had a decent sized garage / workshop frown



I can recommend Sifabs Panhard Rod. Maybe I should have included this in my 3 best mods and relegated Peters wiper blades to No 4 on the basis I try not to drive the car in the rain.

But like others I have quite a list of modifications including some that were already fitted when I bought my car. I would find it quite difficult to put them in any order.

You dont need a large garage Ian as you would be working under the car from the back. You just need height to clear beer belly etc !! Also with your car being a 110 Edition it has around £8000 of extras so it wasn't a standard car by any means before you fitted your 3 modifications!

Surprisingly mine are not the most expensive.

1/ Brake reaction bars. They stopped the front end shuddering and I can drive it faster on uneven roads Cost £40

2/ LED brake/tail lights and DRL sidelights. I have these on my everyday car and feel its important to be seen Cost £30

3/ Upgraded wiper blades. Look and work better Cost £10 each


Rob, I love the colour of your car, what is it, any chance of posting a bigger pic?

They would look equally as good on yours Craig. You need to buy some and get a mate to help you fit them!

Back to the important three:

1) putting the rear seats on the shelf and convert it to a wooden trunk with two boxes in the rear seat foot well
2) tightening the seat cussions with tight luggage belts - now they are long distance proof (seats were out for rear brake refurbishment)
3) manual fan switch...

First was done before I adopted her...
