Eibach Pro-Kit lowering spring for my Peugeot 107

Together with a friend of mine I installed a set lowering springs on my CityBug. This friend of mine is a kind of my personal mechanic ;-)
He has done a lot for me in the past, when I was driving my Peugeot 205 GTI Griffe.

Lowering your car is a serious business so I choose for quality springs.
That's why I bought an Eibach Pro-Kit for my Peugeot 107.
Eibach Pro-Kit Part-no. E10-70-008-01-22

The Eibach Pro-Kit will lower the car
• approx. 35mm at the front
• approx. 30mm at the back



I will post some pictures very soon!!

Ferrite clamps to reduce noice of the Bi-Xenon lights

Some time ago I installed a HID Bi-Xenon conversion kit on my Peugeot 107.
After this installation I had some noise problems on the radio signal of my favourite radio station. So I searched the internet for information about this problem and I found out that a ferrite clamp could solve this problem. To test it I used two ferrite clamps of an "old" USB cable I never use.

When I switched the lights on I didn't have any noise on the radio signal anymore. At the moment I don't have any road experience but the problem is probably solved.

EDIT:
Last night I have been driving my car with the Bi-Xenon lights on and my favourite radio station and there is really no noice on the radio signal anymore. So I'm very happy with this modification.

Here you see two pictures of the ferrite clamps (grey blocks).

Rubber rear spoiler modification

I bought a rubber rear spoiler for my Peugeot 107 on Ebay.
The rubber spoiler is very flexible so you can follow the curve of the roof nicely.
The rubber spoiler is fitted with industrial double sided 3M tape. To make it fit perfectly I had to cut of 3mm of the rubber edges at both sides of the spoiler.

Comfort indicator module for my CityBug

Today I installed a Waeco Comfort Indicator Module MT-200.
I posted about this some time ago, see this topic.



How to wire up a comfort indicator module?
Use cableset 2, 5 wires, delivered with the module.
The jumpers on the comfort indicator module have to be set in position B, all left.
To connect the comfort indicator module take the wires of rev counter, see picture below and the wires of the indicator handle.

The connection of the 5 wires of the indicator module
• connect the black wire to the brown wire of the rev counter
• connect the red wire to the red wire of the rev counter
• connect the green wire to the lightgreen (mint) wire of the indicator handle
• connect the yellow wire to the black wire of the indicator handle
• connect the orange wire to the yellow wire of the indicator handle

Use the wires of the white connector of the indicator handle.
To get there you have to remove the plastic panel under the stearing wheel.

Use the wires of the white connector of the rev counter.
To get there you have to remove the plastic panel of the counter unit.

I mounted the module behind the plastic panel of the center console.
Behind the plastic panel is space enough for the module.

Bootlight with a microswitch

I found some info about light in the boot on the German Peugeot Freunde Forum, see this topic. This guy mounted a microswitch into the original rear doorlock.
He also mounted an original boot light from a Peugeot 206 in his boot.

I also have a light in the boot but I have to switch it on manually.
So I'm thinking about a switch myself and I like this modification very much.

One-touch power windows

Before I bought my Peugeot 107, I drove a Peugeot 205 1.9 GTI Griffe for 5 years. In my 205 Griffe I installed a one-touch power window module. This means that when you touch the power window switch only once the window will open or close completely automatic. By touching the switch again the window will stop. When you are used to this option, you will miss it on a car. So that's why I will isntall one of those one-touch modules again in my Peugeot 107.

More info on this will follow very soon!!

Here you see a wiring diagram of this modification.
