A few questions to ask about my new style 04 plate punto multijet.
It's the basic active version which comes with no bodykit and crappy interior.
I'd like to change the plastic headrests - do I have to buy whole new seats or can I just change the headrests. (Cloth to match)
Can I put in a 60/40 folding rear seat with headrests instead of the one piece that's in it. (Cloth to match)
Would a sporting/abarth bodykit bolt straight on?
Is it possible to change to the dash that has the hole for a head unit & CD changer?
Answers on a postcard pls.

not got a clue

it might be a bit early for some people to mod yet

but anything is possible Grant

yes to all your questions except for the plastic headrests. you'll need to find new front seats from a sporting or similar :wink:

So i'll be able to get rear seats in the same cloth with headrests but I'd need new front seats.
Doesn't the sporting etc have different cloth?
Would I be best to replace the front and rear seats from a sporting?
I'd like to get it looking a bit sportier without going over the top - no offence to those major modders - it's just not my style.
I've no idea why they continue to use those crappy headrests, they're utter sh!t.

I wonder how much it would be to order front & rear seats from fiat. ROTFLMAO

Are there any fiat garages in the north east that are not AC. I don't want to invalidate my warranty but don't want to give AC any more money. I'm a great fan of http://www.arnoldsucks.com

sorry, i skim-read your question. seat's will probably have different cloth. probably best to change front and back like you said :wink:

wont invalidate you warrenty mate. if they do say anything just tell them the car came like that :lol:

So where are the best places to get your new Punto serviced etc?

that's up to you. dealerships aint allowed to invalidate your warranty for going elsewhere now :wink:

Are you certain about that?
If I was to go to a crappy back street garage would Fiat still cover my warranty. I'd heard there were plans for this to be scrapped but didn't think anything had been done yet.

yeah you can go anywhere now. the law was changed a while back. trading standards pushed it through

Sorry, I dunno anything about the new new punto's, but that site IS great eh! I emailed him a couple of times with my own dealings with old man clark, but sadly I think he's stopped updating his site

Maybe we could make a feature "The Arnold Clark cock up page...sponsored by Viagra!"

It would be interesting to see what experiences each of us has had. I know that my experience in dealing with them leaves a lot to be desired.
But thats a story for another day...
