Hiya all,
I just bought myself a nice AU falcon futura (my first car) and I am a bit of a noob when it comes to cars.
Just a few things i'd like to know.
Firstly cruises, i hear so much of these but never what they are attualy about? People cruising the streets or something else?

And are there any such cruises in perth i could come along and check out.

The other thing is i read a tutorial on i think either here or another falcon site that explained how to replace the scuffs with BA falcon scuffs which look far better. I went to ford to purchase these BA scuffs but ford were very sure they couldnt be installed into my car (the front ones, i never enquired about the rear)

Thanks

Howdy Uradox and welcome, firstly congradulations on your purchase, a fine choice as Im sure most here will agree. Im not sure how many members we have in WA but it doesnt take many to have a cruise. You agree on an interesting location with a nice drive , meet somewhere and off you go. Try posting a thread on the subject, Im sure you will get a positive response. Now for the scuff pads check aufalcon.com home page and go to workshop you will find what you seek there. Catch you later.

Welcome to the forums

About the scuff plates - the rear NO they don't fit (someone correct me) but the front one's definately YES. Simple - just unscrew the old and screw in the new.

You'll also find some good reading/tutorials/articles on
AUFALCON.COM
