Bongo Fury

The whole Mazdaspeed kit looks great. Though this thread got me thinking, are there any other differences between the Bongo and the Freda other than the front grille, the steering wheel and the badges on the back?

Mmm....wheel trims/center caps
Where can I get a Mazda Speed mesh grille?
May have to fabricate one!

None i think, though i found early Fredas i came across seemed more often to have manual blinds than Bongos.

Yep, I have manual blinds.

Pros and cons for either i guess but as long as they work tbe electric blinds are very handy (concealing car contents when parking mainly). The Freda grille though is perhaps more timeless.

Tbh I would prefer electric blinds, I tell myself the manual blinds are great as less to go wrong but the electric blinds never seem to go wrong so I think I am only fooling myself. It is a pain having to close each blind individually and they do have a tendency to pop open as some of the end block bits are missing
