Premium Mod Roadster Speedo LCD Invert452 Roadster

This is what you normally see on a Roadster speedo LCD screen. Black text and symbols on a coloured background. The colour is amber unless you have changed the LEDs backlighting the LCD screen. How about modifying the LCD to make it look a bit more up to date? All you...

Premium Mod Roadster Speedo SMD LEDs452 Roadster

The Roadster uses a great deal more surface mounted LEDs than the For2 which restricts the changing and what colour filters you can use.

Premium Mod Roadster Starter Motor Fix452 Roadster

This is the starter motor removed from the car. Actually removing it is a terrible job. Annoyingly, it's rarely the starter motor that fails so removing it is usually unnecessary. So, if you go to start the car and you only hear a click from the fuse box, you have a...

Normal Mod Roadster Stereo Surround452 Roadster

So, you think the standard stereo is shit and want something with a few more functions? You'll need a single DIN stereo surround. Available here or here. Remove your stereo and admire the gaping hole. The important thing about this hole is that the sides aren't flat....

Premium Mod Roadster Suspension Change Front452 Roadster

One of the new comon problems is breaking springs and previous attempts by some people at removing the suspension lead to nuts being drilled out and the entire thing taking a day to complete.
