Finally back in an Elise!!
It should just be attached via double sided tape - not bolted in... even though there are mounting pins on the back of the badge. Just try prising up with a fine flat blade. If you want to be able to remove the number plate (perhaps for track work) then the following is the best: Dual Lock tape... https://www.3m.co.uk/3M/en_GB/p/d/b40068940/

Well - not in the case of Australia, which Imports more from the US than we sell to the US... So we should have a zero (or negative) tariff using that logic.

Petrol for Elise 240 FE
In Australia, we have a choice of 91, 94+E10, 95 or 98 octane, and occasionally 100 octane. I just use the highest one I can find. (The car works fine on 95 if I can't find anything higher)

Elise S1, (sensible) upgrade advice
See if you can get the alloy 48mm throttle body instead. I have used both, and although the 52mm gives an initial faster response (seemingly faster), at full noise the 48mm is actually better "tuned" to the standard inlet manifold. Only if you have the VVC engine manifold will the 52mm really work at WOT. (I've tested this many times on track, and with flat-out acceleration, it is definitely slightly slower than a 48 - in my experience anyway)

Front Number Plate Plinth
I riveted a flat length of aluminium plate to both metal arms, and then attached the numberplate to it using "D-Lock" industrial strength velcro for added light weight!

Cruise control for S3
stevensr34 replied to Thorlund's topic in Interior, Exterior, Lights, Glass, Alarms, ICE, HVAC, OtherYep - first plug in the new stalk, but also turn on cruise control in the ECU - probably best to see a dealer about that setting. Having said that, it's not a very tactile switch control on the stalk, and is hard to set/turn on/off unless you concentrate. My other cars have far easier controls. Best of them is Volvo XC40, whiere you just press a button to keep going at the current speed. None of this "turn system on" first, then "Set speed", in two separate steps on separate buttons...
