What's this about me going to any length? How do you know Dave? I just checked the web cam and it is facing the other way. Do you have some sort of ESP (I'm not referring to the stability control you nut case) or something.

This is some weird forum we are on here.

Anyone had a sunroof fitted to the i30 as yet? Apparently they are fitted locally but supplied by Hyundai. About $2500 for electric with memory. The missus wants one on her CRDi which is due in June.

Mate you beat me to it.. I was thinking the same thing. Only I want to know how much the head room is reduced... Im a bit tall and dont want to hit my head...!

Would like to see pics of one.

hey! yeah, well ive found a site with 5 led mods for the i30....one problem though...its in korean ><

but elsewards!!! if you look at this site and just search up i30 some of the items there are so awesome...i so want to change the roomlamp/vanity light to the white lights....and the angel eyes...

apart from that, if you make the conversions from korean won to aud/usd...its so cheap!!! ive tried to get in contact with the webmaster but there is still no response...hopefully someone her understands korean!

Dunno if this will work but I'll post a translated link anyway

I found this photo of a sunroof on an i30, looks quite nice with the rounded trim.

Hi Guys,

Three pix to get everyone motivated to add a few extras to their i30's. The audi has a few extras I don't think I'll copy!

Cheers,

I recently bought a i30 CRDi povo pack. I'm interesting in those audio steering controls from the first link...

http://www.koreanautoimports.com/store/pro...roducts_id=1159

Do these just bolt onto the wheel and plug straight into the loom? or is there modification needed? And do they need to be coded?

I'm not afraid of installing (**** im a tech for mercedes benz) but I do like my 5 year warranty!

Sorry can't help with the question although have bookmarked that link as phone control would be handy (guess I'd need a bluetooth module as well?)

Pleasing to see a Mercedes Tech was impressed enough with the i30 to buy one... good stuff look forward to your input...

Cheers,

Dazz

Thanks for the welcome!

The reason i'm askin is i know that on a merc usual procedure is to plug and then some coding is dowloaded from germany and transfured to the control units. I guess it depends on if a canbus system is implemented (doubtfull).

Not sure about the phone control? does the i30 have handsfree bluetooth as an option? I guess there would be a separate bluetooth module needed? Does anyone have access to workshop infomation (i.e. service manuals etc?)

Ah the i30 crdi is probably in my opinion the best thing hyundai has ever done, I only work on mercedes diesels and have driven many competitors diesels and can tell you the i30 is definately on par, technology wise at least. Build quality only time can tell but with a 5yr warrranty you cant really go wrong - especially for the price.

Hi again Toxxic,

Nice feedback on our ride... Yes some i30 models around the world come with Bluetooth phone connection as standard (only an option in Aus I believe)

Cheers,

Dazz

Hi Toxxic! Shambles here. Welcome to H-F :thumbsup:

That's the first time I've seen the bluetooth addon. Quite interested to see if I can get one here in the UK. Definitely will need additional module for the BT transceiver, but as for the wiring.... who knows

Thanks for the welcome guys!

From what I can see the buttons sit in the actual steering wheel so i'm guessing they plug directly into the clock spring (steering wheel angle sensor) behind the drivers airbag... But i will confirm this next week when pickup my i30.

I'm mostly interested in the audio controls though, my povo pack 2000 commodore has it and I wouldnt mind it in this car. I'm hoping that it plugs sraight in, no aditional modules, wiring or coding needed and it essentially just tap's into the current headunit controls!

IF only there were some hyundai tech's around haha! or even some literature!

Hello,

I've gust received my I30 last week and I'm interest to in this audio steering module. But i see that the last post was 1 yaer ago....(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) . No News?

Hi all,

Will be purchasing an i30 petrol for the missus in the next few weeks.

I have to say these i30s are really great value for money. But being a car nut myself i have already spent nearly 10k in my head "tastefully" modding the little thing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

The $19990 drive away deal for an 09 plate really sold it for me.

More powerful than the Corolla.

Better looking than the Focus.

And cheaper than anything its size out there.

Are there any companies in Australia selling upgrades for these things? Looks, performance ect ect?

CHEERS
