Nice Futura man, looks tidy

Definately blue LED dash mod, it'll set off the interior brilliantly at night

Possibly change the climate control to Fairmont spec, looks a lot better in the interior over those 2 big switches

Paint the rocker cover to give the engine bay a bit of style

I would also change the intake snorkel to an EF/EL XR6/8 one. Not only is it larger but it looks a lot better than the smallish stock one

You mean like my one here? hint hint

Haha, I thought it was a good chance to pimp my own s**t.

Looks tidy mate, you have the mags I want on my lane .

Why not put a BA XR intake on there?

[EDIT] That is a fairly big conversion though, you need a AU plenum and have to panel beat the left wheel arch to fit the airbox.

I went to put the EF/EL one into my AU which is the same as BA but no good. They have a different shape in the bend to get around the radiator hose. I didn't think there was any difference either till I had a crack at it.

how easy is it to fit the climate control from a fairmont to the futura?
thanks
