ISNT THERE SOMETHING WITH THE REAR HEADRESTS?

DO 130S HAVE 2 REAR AND THE 150S HAVE 2 REAR HEADRESTS (OR VICE VERSA)

no becuase the third head rest was an option available to all models.

the only external difference that the 150 has as standard, is the front splitter, this is the same as the V6 4 motion, the others only have the centre cut out.

this one is clearly a 130 as the power is 96Kw and the engine is ASZ, which i thought we had decided a long time ago.

I'm assuming the front splitter is the extra bit along the bottom of the bumper??

Also, what is the point of headlight brows? I've got them on my PD150 and when I first looked at the car I thought they were washers...!

aye its to accommodate the intake for the intercooler / air box

do you mean something above the light or on the bumper?

the ones on the bumper are going to be headlight washerjets.  the ones above have no point

they're on the bumper. But I've tried using the washers with the lights on and I don't think they don't do anything.

on mine they only pop up when the headlights are on (dimmed beam)

on some versions i think they pop up regardless on every 6th spray.

you'll need a solid spray too say 1 second atleast.
