MK8 Fiesta - Emerald Boot Strut Install (CEUK)

[@LawrenceAbramoff]

Good stuff mate. Sold! First chance at work tomorrow, shall get a set. Also got the exact same diffuser today from seeing yours! Only problem is I have no idea when the car is arriving HAHA

[@CarEnhancementsUK]

Always the way! Best to have it ready though

[@LawrenceAbramoff]

@@CarEnhancementsUK done guys 😊 but in doing so, my wallet isn't going to be very happy I found your website or KZbin channel haha. You guys carry some cool stuff and your freight is reasonable. - Thanks

Hey great video! I was wondering where I can find the Enhanced Performance rear window sticker, as I cannot find it on the ceuk website. Thank-you :)

[@thebeardedcollectoruk1985]

Great video - one question and possibly a stupid one...does this "mod" need to be declared to my insurance company? I'm thinking of getting these.

[@CarEnhancementsUK]

ideally every mod should be declared

[@pablitoclavounclavito4614]

I really like your videos and the car. I'm waiting for my fiesta st too, is it very complicated to mount the rear diffuser? Thank you very much and congratulations on the car.

[@CarEnhancementsUK]

No not at all :) we are gonna do a video on the next one we do

[@pablitoclavounclavito4614]

it's great, thank you very much!!!

[@SB-le7sj]

@@CarEnhancementsUK Great looking car so far buddy,do you have to take the bumper off to fit the rear diffuser or not? Im going to get the same one V2?

[@craigdennis6484]

Great video and content, where did you get the rear defuser from please?

[@RichJWAdams]

I'd also like to know. Maybe maxton design?

[@Verknechter]

Is this the maxton v2 diffuser? Did it fit easy? I heard newer MK8s are missing a part where the diffuser has to be screwed to the car.

[@CarEnhancementsUK]

Thats correct, but the brackets are supplied that counter this issue :)

[@rc70ys]

One thing to be careful is that when it fully opens automatically it doesn’t hit something up high 😂

[@vorbis869]

Do you guys plan on doing a video on speakers or amp upgrades? Just got mine in Aus and the first batch missed out on the B&O system so I'm looking to find how to upgrade everything!

[@CarEnhancementsUK]

Hi that’s not something we work with I’m afraid

[@vorbis869]

@@CarEnhancementsUK all good thanks for your reply! Keep up the great vids

[@birgerbrie5819]

Is this the low or high pressure version?

[@hjlvd7219]

Hi, Great video. Do you have them for the Puma ST?

[@CarEnhancementsUK]

Coming soon hopefully :)

[@rc70ys]

Will these fit my Puma please and where can I buy them.

[@CarEnhancementsUK]

Afraid not but something is in the works

[@ddtddt2165]

As I see it, one strut is enough? Easier to close than also

[@CarEnhancementsUK]

The one strut does aid in opening the boot but is only successful some of the time and will fail prematurely

[@idiocracy9530]

Looks like one strut is enough.

[@ueditwebdesign8671]

Does a single click on the remote just unlock the boot and then the double click will allow the Emerald Strut to fully open or is the only boot option to double click?

[@CarEnhancementsUK]

That’s a good question and one I will endeavour to answer for you

[@mainman2999]

@@CarEnhancementsUK any answer yet?

[@CarEnhancementsUK]

@@mainman2999 yes you are correct - single clip unlocks double opens

[@Rabsallawah]

I’ve done this upgrade and after a week, I still HATE how hard it is to close, without touching the paint. So far, not a fan. As for “are they going to damage my car…no”… how the hell would you know, Mr “I don’t speak for Ford’s Warranty”. I’ll give them a month or two, then change them back. IMO, It’s not a good mod, unless the struts you fit can also close the boot.

[@CarEnhancementsUK]

Hi - in terms of damaging the car this was purely a reference to bending the joints that they attach to. I think the statement can be taken too seriously
