WARNING: Possible cracked alarmswitch

I want to warn CityBug owners to check the alarmswitch for cracks frequently.
This problem is known on the Dutch CityBug Forum and also on the German Aygo Forum. A cracked alarmswitch should be replaced under warranty by your dealer.

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).

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.

One-touch electric window modification

Today I installed a one-touch electric window 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.

Comfort indicator module for my CityBug

Today I bought a Waeco MT-2000 comfort indicator module on Ebay.
Some time ago I posted about this, see this topic.

I bought a parking sensor set for my CityBug

I like keeping busy with my CityBug so I bought a parking sensor set for my CityBug. I bought the set for a bargain price on Ebay so I thought why not.
It would be a nice extra gadget.

The parking sensor set only has a buzzer to indicate your space because I don't like the "display-types" that much. The set comes with 4 black 20mm sensors and the sensors are automatically activated as soon as you engage into reverse gear. It has a three-stage beeping mode indicating different distances from the obstacle. It provides audible alerts within 1.5m

Today I was busy with my CityBug

Today I installed a set super white LED parking lights to match the color of my
Bi-Xenon lights. After I installed the Bi-Xenon light I didn't like the original parking lights because they gave the "old golden/yellow" light. So that's why I installed the new super white LED parking lights. The color of the light is far better and matches the Bi-Xenon light nicely.




I also installed a flate blade wiper. The flate blade wiper is the same size as the standard wiper blade, size 26"/650mm.




Last week I posted about my new aluminium doorpins.
I made a few new and better pictures of them.

On this picture the doorpin is on it's highest position because the door is unlocked.
