Wait, Rowelly, you have the zetec 1.4? In that case you only need the standard Fiesta Mk6 strut which is straight? The ST one has a "kink" so it fits over our engine.

Yeah, that's the one.

I'm not sure though if the ST one fits anyway as it should be coming in at below £94. Hopefully somebody else with more knowledge can clarify for you.

I've got my K&N on now but left the top of the airbox on as the engine bay looked a bit empty without it

The strut brace will fill that gap nicely. Also removing the airbox will help your engine disapate that extra bit of heat - remember heat rises!

Well worth getting rid and having a party!

Oh yeah, definitely. I might not bother with a real OMP strut, I think I could make my own out of toilet roll tubes and cereal packaging. True Blue Peter style.

I could make a how to as well if anybody else wants one.

Have you fired across that e-mail Looey my good man?!
