INEEDNAWZZZ Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Wasn't sure where else to ask this. Been inspired by Steve GT's OEM build and just wanted to know what optional extras were available to UK-spec Starlets.I know the small lip spoiler, as well as the TTE backbox and wing were either optional or dealer-fitted extras. My manual has a section for ABS, passenger airbag (I think, can't quite remember), air conditioning and a double din tape/CD player, so plainly they were either standard on some models or options, but I'm assuming theres more. Thanks for any help in advance! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for any help in advance!The TTE extras were only available on the SR and all came standard on them bar the front TTE lip that was an optional extra for the SR. as far as i know you could not get a passenger air bag on a uk spec not even as an option. don't think air con was an option either. There isn't many really noting exiting like the GTs and Glanzas optional extras! there is metallic paint, alloys, locking wheel nuts, wee standard spoiler, sunroof, electric windows, roof rack, tow bar and fog lights. some of these come standard on some models though, maybe some more i have missed. Hope this helps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
INEEDNAWZZZ Posted May 16, 2014 Author Share Posted May 16, 2014 Yeah, I figured there wouldn't be anything too crazy, just thought it would be worth a shout though. Probably mixed the passenger airbag up with the LHD models, since they're in the manual as well. Thanks for the heads up! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rob_bower Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 And wind deflectors. Would be good to get hold of a brochure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
INEEDNAWZZZ Posted May 16, 2014 Author Share Posted May 16, 2014 That's interesting, because wind deflectors are something I've wanted since I bought the car yet never come across them. I was kind of worried I'd have to either source some from a 5-door Reflect or just get a set of front Team Heko ones and leave the back doors without them (which, ideally, I don't want). I've had a look at the '98 UK brochure on the wiki, but there isn't an options list, besides mentioning the spoiler, locking wheel nuts and alloys as options. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lee-Robo Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 were carpet floor mats a UK optional extra? because I have a full set of OEM mats and the drivers one has starlet stamped into it in a suede material. Not the best picture I have but you get the idea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Various graphics/sticker sets were also options from some dealerships.There's a similar set to SR'S but has something else wrote on it instead of Sr. Spoilers, seat covers, alloy wheels. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
