Sub £50
Amps £100
Install £40
Mats £40
HID Kit £150
Exhaust (Blueflame) £210 + Fitting Was on there in the picture)
Induction kit £30 (Not used in XE)


Want the Cost of the XE conversion?
M-Tec Fitting Kit £480.00
Engine Service Parts £202.68
Engine + Spare ECU £90.00
Custom Loom £20.00
Halfords Service Parts £90.83
XE Pulley £15.00
