    I would buy the same sidestep that I have for the second time. Instead would go with something that is narrower, even if I had to use the mud flaps behind the wheels (eBay one for $45 set of 4).

    Hi. Got front & rear mudflaps with the car new - still get the dust & stuff getting under bottom door seals though. Have looked more closely at Aussietig's info, might give the sidesteps a miss though - don't want to start chopping up my new baby (yet)!
    Cheers
    P.S: while I got you (know it's on different topic but no replies yet), can you throw light on the inlet tube on side of manifold that I mentioned in "Wastegate Rattle Problem Solved" thread?

    Hey Tiggy1, I did not get the sidesteps but did end up getting some mudflaps from ebay. Just not going offroad as much anymore, and will be happy to keep washing sills...I'll have to keep an eye out for you around Tolga, go there pretty regularly, walked (and drove partway) up Mt Emerald last weekend. I was impressed with how the Tig handled the track with the haldex kicking in regularly.
    I'm outside Kuranda
    cheers

    Cool. Thanks for that. I see in your signature that you've upped it to 189kw - was that APR, and what do you think of the difference?

    Hi. Tried taking photo, but didn't turn out real well. Here are some piccies from erWIN Workshop Manual that show it (where I've drawn arrows).

    Tiggy1 - you need to host the photos online and then use the tags around the URL link.

    Use something like ImageShack® - Online Photo and Video Hosting to upload the photos to, and then post those links.

    Duh, thanks for that. Had to create Photobucket Account once before to do something similar - will try that.

    Thanks dude. I emailed Transporter direct with piccies direct also - the "old fashioned" way!
