Smile WQ Fiesta XR4 leather gearboot gaiter

G'day all,

First time poster in this section of the forums, wondering if anyone can help. Been looking at forums everywhere and haven't really been able to find a conclusive answer. Has anyone got a leather gearboot gaiter on their XR4 (or any other fiesta) and if so, where did you get it? I've found a few on UK sites but was seeing if there were any other alternatives. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

cheers,
Julza

Team torque steer in the UK has em, http://www.teamtorquesteer.co.uk/fie...er-gaiter.html

eBay is another option.

Most parts are most easily found in the UK

http://www.pumaspeed.co.uk/xindex.php
http://www.teamtorquesteer.co.uk/

Or get a leather/f.leather one on ebay,

The leather gator was on the 2008 model XR4's only ... all the ones prior came with the rubber one.

As the other guys have pointed out you can get one sent over from Europe or as Photn said your local Ford Dealer .. don't know how much they would want though?

I bought my Eibach Springs from Euro Parts in Germany ... excellent service!, no problems at all, they were delivered AirFreight to my local Post Office ... you have to use PayPal though so you may need to set that up.
