The manufacturer used by lotus is no longer in existence
However we had been dealing directly with them for years..
The products used to colour wheels are made by a company call Freilacke
I have one product code for silver that was used on lotus wheels (could poss be more)
The code i have is
Sport silver is WO1838MOE20A
Our local wheel refurb company uses Freilacke to when we need help, thats who we go to
Any wheel refurb company that uses the product may be able to help, however some of the colours used are a powder, so you may find it difficult to find a 'wet' solution (I think the silvers where a painted top coat, hence silver over black etc etc)
When in business the wheel manufacturer where always very helps with info, sadly all that knowledge is now gone forever

Can you post a picture of the opening in the wheel arch liner ?
Not sure how something is open when it looks fully closed. In all the cars with vents you see clearly when the air goes through ( on the GT3 RS for example)
Then misteriousky there's pictures of 430 cup where you can see them open.
Np sorry am unable to post picture

They look closed but are just offset, does allow air flow

this, sort of

Despite what the parts book says, the 430 vents may look closed, but there are 100% open, Its just the opening is not inline with the top vents, It allows airflow but not stone/debris to come through the vents. My 430 is exactly like this

Is there anything i should be doing to get the GPS signal to work? All connecting yesterday when not near a track, but turned up at track today and the GPS doesnt appear to connect?
First time use. I assume i turn it on to track mode and it should just work? Or is there more I’m missing?
Do you have track maps loaded in the software? you can upload any of the almost 5000 available ones. I normally only have the tracks i visit loaded to the dash

Did anyone figure out how to install both harnesses and belts on 390FE or cars with similar seats?
SimplyLotus told me their solution doesn't work, it's only for carbon seated cars.Its nothing to do with carbon seats...
Lotus updated the seat runners in the 17.5my onwards cars and the hardware kit to allow both sets of belts to be used is not compatible with the later cars due to this change.
Hope this helps

It would be interesting to get feedback from track and also regarding the reliability.
Mine has now done about 2500 miles and is absolutely brilliant. The upshift an well as the blip down shift just make me giggle like a small child...Its really rather good on track!!!

If the plug rotates it should come out, Its the plugs that are seized that stand a chance of breaking (In my experience)
-
Paul
Is it the hose rotating on the plug or the plug rotating in the box? The plug has an O ring which can 'stick' or the plug can get stuck (seized into the gearbox). We carry the plugs in stock for workshop use for this very issue as they are easy to break if not careful. If the plug is rotating it will be the o ring stopping it coming out....!!

Looks like it's "buy the mx2e or stick with what you've got"
Thats not quite right Lee!! An MX2E is £1440 plus vat, The solution i suggested to you starts at under £500 plus vat
-
Lotus have stock of the Quiet Exhaust for the 400 series cars, Not cheap at £2028 + vat.
BUT they do work, I have one on my 3Eleven 430

guess that is a big oops! The Aim site is very misleading then, as I said, I did not think it was applicable because I don't have an airbag.
harness sourced. Will have to wait and see I guess.😢😢
Not misleading really. They don't make a dash for the 2004-2007 white dash non air bag cars, The binnacle is different and doesn't fit so technically they dont make one for that car. However the cluster itself will work but needs some tweakage for the install. Hence why some retailers offer a kit with remote buttons
-
why is 265 for the rear a problem? 285 dont fit nicely on the rims. We have used the Cooper RS3R/Avon ZZR on lots of cars, work well last well etc No complaints. May not be as fast as some other tyres but its a trackday right? Not racing!!!
-
Yes you MUST use the adapter harness on the white dash cars. Just hope you havent fried the dash as the feed and earths are in different locations on early cars compared to later hence the harness.

Good news, and interesting info, many thanks !
Did they tell you what's the difference between GPS09 gen A and gen B ?
Would be interesting to know.Thank you again !
The chip set is different, apparently an updated version due to supply issues, hence the need to update firmware
