The Ford Capri Laser Page

Hi,
I have there "flat type" connector, about 3mm wide (i think), male on radio, female on wire to aerial. Something like on pictures.

But I also find picture where some circular conector is instead of flat type. But I don't know what's that, just find picture...


Tom

So PIN for automatic aerial should be next to "+" PIN.

On picture there is Blaupunkt Coburg Stereo, but it is same radio as RST21P.


Tom

Hi,
I'm not sure, but I think that gaiter isn't secured on gear stick anyhow. I think it only lays on that gear stick collar. But I've never dismantled it yet.
Picture isn't very good, sorry.

I got it the wrong way around in my reply!

Andrew.

I had to check it in workshop manual. I was affraid that I have it wrong way on my 2.8i.


Tom

Hi,
some photo will be helpful. Which radio do you have? ESRT32 PS?

There should be pin at the back, on which is 12V only when radio is on. Originaly it was white wire, which goes from this pin to automatic aerial.


Tom

Hi,
I also think that o-ring is for another car.

Here is picture of instalation to 2.8i.

I saw it yesterday.
I wrote them, how is it with delivery to CZ, because on eshop there is only UK or Ireland as destination country.

Ok, thanks! I try it.

Well my replacements arrived today (I have to say, Tickover have been brilliant about this), and I've put them on the car and they work perfectly. Very smooth and quiet when lifting the tailgate and properly working wiper and demister. I would recommend them. They are slightly longer than the origi...

Hi Paul,
that isn't good news... I just want to order them from Tickover. :-/

Previously I wanted to order them from Motomobil, but they are out of stock now.

Using a Neo model as a base is quite extravagant, they're very expensive!

Andrew.

Thanks, Andrew.

Yes, price was higher, but it was the only option for Mk2 X-Pack.


Tom

Thanks! ;) I've also read in the past that it's scrapped, but last month (when I tried to find more photos of this car to make 1/43 model) I found some discussion on FB or Twitter or somewhere from 2016 and anybody wrote there that he had this car in garage for 30 years and now (in 2016) it is under...

Hi, nothing too much interesting, but I post it here. I wanted 1/43 model of Doyle's Capri Mk2 X-Pack (SOO 636R), but I didn't find it anywhere. Don't know if model of this Capri was ever offered. So I bought 1/43 Mk2 X-Pack model with strange color combination and turn it into SOO 636R. See photos....

Hi, here they have complete exhaust for 2.8i, but it is from Germany. For 3.0 they have different lenght of centre sections (don't know if it is right), but it is out of stock. https://www.motomobil.com/en/products?katalog_name=CAPRI&katalog_seite=61&katalog_seite_id=2 https://www.motomobil....

Hi,
looks very good! And your Mk3 3.0S in same color will be great too, for sure.
