I use Dap to download and it seems to down load OK, but when I try to view it, I get unable to read/corrupt messages.:shrug:
This is on most stuff on here.

Do all years of Freelander fit the MGF?

I fitted them this weekend.

Here's a pic in size comparison. One side the the TF ones and one with the freelander ones.




They make a big difference they are more responsive in my opinion.

Good Luck Helsbyman. Yes this is not a new mod, but the how to's I've seen all said; disconnect battery wait 30 mins then remove the steering wheel :nonod: Simply not needed to change the stalks.


The original post said pull SRS fuse or disconnect the battery and go and have a cuppa..

I put about removing the wheel in the original mod cos I was following the procedure in RAVE. I do agree that it is possible to do it without.

I did mine without
without the wheel in the way gave me a chance to line the steering wheel up properly :broon:

*starts scouring eBay for Rover 800 stalks* (The one F/TF mod that can be credited to me)

It's a superb upgrade mod. Thankyou very much. :broon: 'Paul' PQD44 has done it proud with his guide don't you think? :yesnod:

paulsmgf if your steering wheel is not straight it could be that your tracking was out, I'd get the tracking checked if you haven't already.

He did. It's more straightforward than my original. Learned from experience I guess.

Once I get my new car, I'll start looking about getting the variable intermittent wipers working again. I kinda gave up on the project as I had decided to sell...

And some shockingly bad pics from 2006. The very first time 800 stalks had been fitted to an MGF or TF. I spawned a monster ;)
