You are blessed with a pre - canbus car. You can (although it's a fair bit of work) fit the kit from a Mk1 Punto with electric windows. deggsyuk said: put a 1.2 engine in it Click to expand... Yep. Mk1 1242 8v is a straight swap, Mk2 8v has the same block, but you need to swap the head over. [/quote] deggsyuk said: or diesel Click to expand... It can probably be done, but you'd have to be a masochist to try. deggsyuk said: best size wheels Click to expand... If you can find 14" 6J with a suitable offset and PCD they'll allow you to run cheap 195/45/14 tyres (Rainsports or Faulken) and bigger disks and calipers (vented Marea, Punto GT3, etc.)
