Default XR interior adaptive shift sticker/badge
Anyone have any idea where I can get one of these from? Rare spares don't have it in their catalogue. Is Fraud the best bet?

Cheers

I have my eyes on a AUII VCT XR6. Very clean, stock, 118000kms. It's advertised on carsales for 13K. Went and had a good look over it today. Only things I noticed were dicky CD player (will probably replace with after market), inside edge of both rear tyres bald, damp oil leak behind the transmission (Mechanic had a look at it and reckons 150 buck job to replace a particular sendor/sensor and o ring), and scuffed rims. Drives well. Do you think an offer of 12k as is is reasonable? It's been on carsales now for a while.

Cheers

Question 1, Yes Ford is the best bet. They cost bugger all.

Question 2, 12k seems fair to me.

Don't you start, I've apparently been sent by the Labor party to spy on the idiotic!

That's what I'm told now anyway.

That'd be the speedo transducer.

Is the head unit the six crapper (oops sorry stacker)?

$12k is still a tad too much I reckon. Go $11k.

I lost one of the anchoring clips for the driver's side carpet mat that same way. Terrible. Tragic. Elected to never use one of those vacuum thingies ever again. :

Nah not six stacker... single disc and it's even playing my burnt CDs that other units spit straight back out. I ended up offering 12k late last night, as it's the cheapest series 2 in Perth at the moment and it's definitely in better nick than the others. They came back offering 12100. Funny stuff. Yep speedo transducer rings a bell. It's just damp, not leaking yet, but supposedly common??

I've got a brand new set of spare XR mats, so I'm covered for 2 clips if that happens to me :hihi:

It is annoying. I only had the XR for 2 days when it got sucked into oblivian
