109 how much ba yun SPIRIT 780.

Promdiboy punta ka sa gallery ko may makikita ka pic wala bumper.

Kailangan gumawa ka ng PLATE either aluminum or stainless tapos tabas mo to the size that would fit in the space directly under the headlight.

You need 2 plates one at each side.

Yan lang yun only space na pwede lagay yun ballast. down side is pag nasira you have to remove your whole bumper just to fix it. pero sanayan lang yan. kayang kaya mo yan.

tapos kabit mo ballast sa plate na ginawa mo. yun plate tornilyo mo dun sa ilalim ng headlite. malaki yun space in between bumper at yun wall above the chassis

Oo nga pala had anyone of you heard something on the front doors like a rattle or something is loose?

**109** · November 5th, 2004 04:43 PM

i've been calling up the thule dealer several times, wala pa rin maisagot sa price ng spirit780.

that rattle was my very first problem, very annoying that i almost wanted the FORD dealer to replace my unit hehe. I just applied a silicone-based dielectric grease and the rattle is gone, it's been 7 months of rattle-free driving.

Nice plate!!!!!

Yun sa akin d numero lang wala letters

Ano ang silicon based na die-electric grease? where do you buy this and where do you apply it.

I've read about this problem before but never imagine I had to dealt with such.

Just tell me where to buy and where to apply thanks.

pare, pinabili ko sa states silicon-grease. mura lang $4 lang or $6 per tube.
nilagyan ko yung rubber trim na makikita mo pag binuksan mo mga pinto (not the rubber attached to the doors), yung upper rubber na halos kapantay na ng roofline.

not sure if u can find it in hardware stores, true value, or handyman.

if u need it badly, i can send you mine thru LBC, meron pa ko natira sa tube.

yung rattle ko sa doors dati galing sa clading. pinahigpit ko sa casa. nabawasan pero meron parin.

109 ayos ah salamat in advance!!!!!!

I will try to look for it this weekend sa mall baka makakita ako noon if not I'll let you know para padala mo sa akin yan.

Oo nga pala my brother in law is getting a Explorer.

Promdiboy swerte mo naayus mo sa cladding sa akin sa gilid talaga ng pinto eh.

**109** · November 12th, 2004 11:22 PM

rebel, magkano daw explorer?

yung rattles sa expy ko parang nanggagaling sa pinto, parang sa door handle loose latch, para ding sa hinges ng door, para ding sa mechanism ng glass window, para din nanggagaling sa cladding kaya di ko alm ang gagawin ko nun. butwhen applied the silicone grease, nawala lahat. the culprit was the inferior rubber molding that FORD installed in our units.

promdiboy baka hindi na sa cladding yan, try mo na rin silicone grease.

no word yet from the THULE company.
