G'day all,
First time poster in this section of the forums, wondering if anyone can help. Been looking at forums everywhere and haven't really been able to find a conclusive answer. Has anyone got a leather gearboot gaiter on their XR4 (or any other fiesta) and if so, where did you get it? I've found a few on UK sites but was seeing if there were any other alternatives. Any help would be greatly appreciated! cheers, Julza

Team torque steer in the UK has em, http://www.teamtorquesteer.co.uk/fie...er-gaiter.html
eBay is another option. Most parts are most easily found in the UK

you can get em' from many places inc:
http://www.fordpartsuk.com/ http://www.pumaspeed.co.uk/xindex.php http://www.teamtorquesteer.co.uk/ http://www.european-parts.net/catalog/ Or get a leather/f.leather one on ebay, or go to auto-store and get one and adjust to fit, did that for mine and looks great.

The leather gator was on the 2008 model XR4's only ... all the ones prior came with the rubber one.
As the other guys have pointed out you can get one sent over from Europe or as Photn said your local Ford Dealer .. don't know how much they would want though? |
