If you're looking for the best location, I believe putting it on ebay would be the best thing you could hope for. :wack:

This must be the most easy for vision and acess to the unit and the best bit its going to be semi hidden from sight.you will not be able to see it from passenger side and only just see it from the drivers side.and with easy use.good a.this way i dont have a nasty little black box stuck to the centre consil or out of reach in the glove box.cool a.

Once fin tomorow ill put up pic..i just run out of light.beer time]

Haha haha.

 

I have to say you are one of the most opinionated people on this forum, but every now and again your comments do make me laugh.

Insulation tape is fine, so as long as your connections are soldered or crimped. Terminal blocks are ok but any stress on the cable can cause the connections to pull and snap.

the loom on this will be soldered thus the soildering iron also in the pic and the tape isnt norm black tape its the proper stuff they use so it dosnt put glue everywere when old and hot, proper tape , proper soldering, proper hidden apart from the driver proper job, but yes i wi;; loose the map light, but like i have said before ,i never use them, and thats the first thing i turned off when i got the car. so good alround place to fit.

"Proper job" = soldered connections surrounded by heat shrink.

"Proper job" = quality environmental splices neatly loomed.

This! And it's actually easier!

Different trades have different standard practices I guess.

Ill by some heat shrink then.can you buy it in a ten miter roll ?

Great idea Spin, hope you manage to get it fitting neatly. Pics as you go please :thumbup:

"Proper job" in this scenario is to use heat shrink. DIY job, not trade as he's doing it himself :)

Just buy a box full of various sizes and lengths for a few quid, one size doesn't fit all applications.

Right and for todays input.

so ive cut out very carfully and then with a file made good.just a drop of superglu to hold temp in place.

Then some resin .being carefull not to get everywere.

then tape up again after trial refit for the hudred times.then a little bit of pooh .there you go funki si some pooh in the to make good and flat.ready for the last stage once ive got it all nice.

...................

And at last .with the pooh rubbed down.to the final stage tomorow.the apllication of the leather to finish it of.

its all in the prep a.

It does fit in a glove box :)

Wrong side of the car & time is of the essence when you're at Maccy D's and need to do some bang-bangs :wack:

 

Unless of course I am mistaken and this is for drag racing purposes :shifty:

Oh and at the moment the car seats so low i couldnt go there even if i wanted. But Noels right i did want a disgret place so i could play without spoiling the interia. Tomorow ill post the finished result.your going to love the finish
