that would be an effort. thats one thing these cars are missing a central locking button other then just locking the drivers door.

Be wary that by doing this mod you make it really hard for RACQ to then break into your car if you lock yourself out. Id say near impossible but they got skillz.

Eh theres nothing wrong with them, when you first get teh mounts in the car its pretty shaky. But they settle down quickly.
Well worth it I have the 88s love em

Ryan, they help with wheel tramp massively as well as more powah on the road. (Less energy lost due to stock engine mounts).
Interestingly enough if you put a KL engine in the car there is 0 vibrations from the mounts its just the FP and FS engines that seem to vibrate that much. Some of it could be due to it being Inline vs V6 I guess. SP20 did your idle drop a heap with the new mounts? My car now idles at around 400rpm.

Good to hear about the alarm, have you done the "power windows always on" mod yet?? Link Here
As for the stickers, your car, your choice, do what you want, not what people tell you!
