Fitted some Heico Alloy door pins to my S60 today. Very nice subtle mod especially as I have the Aluminium mesh interior trim anyway. Also fitted a Heico badge to the front grille of the car. Decided the grille did look a bit empty after all...
You know I'm going to say: :worthless
I've ordered some Heico Stainless Steel door sill covers and a Heico boot badge. As soon as it's all fitted I'll post some more pics!
The Stainless Steel Door Sill covers and the boot badge arrived today, they are both excellent quality. Will get them fitted over the weekend and post some pics!
I couldn't wait til tomorrow! Yes I know it's dirty! :jaw:
Nice mods what was the damage for those parts? The front badge looks excellent.
I like the door pins - nice modern twist. I'm unsure about the rest - prefer the volvo stuff I think :) As long as you like it though...
The front and rear badges are about £12.00 each, door pins x 4 about £30 a set and the Stainless Steel door sill plates x 4 about £80. I'm really pleased with all the parts. They are all very high quality.

I run PFV so I got mine in for testing purposes :biggrin: PFV are now selling Heico stuff so you can either order from PFV or direct from Heico.

Just seen the piccys the car looks fantastic all the new bits are nice and subtle might even order a few myself after Christmas.
Looks great Simon. Are PFV going to be stocking these bits? ;) x
[QUOTE=BrightonBreezy]Do you (or PFV) have a website with prices? Heico don't put prices on their site.[/QUOTE] They're listed at 41 Euros (about £28) on HEICOs pricelist :)
PFV have the badges, door pins, door sills in stock and new S40/V50 Grilles in stock. At the moment it's finding the time to photograph the parts and add them to the website!
Simon, I like the door pins alot!!! How do you fit them? Do they just slip on (ohh errr)
Just unscrew the plastic ones and screw the news ones on!

[QUOTE=vikingt5]In fact mate here you go shop until your hearts content! http://www.partsforvolvosonline.com/default.php?cPath=28_622[/QUOTE] I know, I've been there.... but why is Walter at Heico saying they don't have a UK distributor when their stuff is for sale on a UK website. :insane: It works out cheaper to go direct to Heico, but once you factor in shipping PFV is cheaper over all.
They won't allow you to sell competing products if you want to be an official distributor, so we are just a re-seller.

I want one of the shifters and the aluminium dial set - but I've just splashed out on a full set of Continental WinterContacts for my D5 so will have to wait a small while ;)
