madmax

How much are they car mad? I would not mind some if the price is right.

I think at $600 for 99 style inserts and £300+ for a double din centre console why dont we find someone who can produce them. Even on a low run I cant see them costing anywhere near that much to make!!!

I remember thinking it looked nice but could not remember exactly how it had been done.

OMG that is expensive... have a go at making one its not hard how did you do yours 6volt?

How much are they?, took me about 3-4 hours to do mine just the drying time that slows you down.

yes we did that... its AOK ! but we have essentially lifted it forward to make it flush so that would only help I guess.

I have no idea how it looks in the car as I dont have any interior to put it in at the moment :whistling:. But I will take a pic when my interior is finnished and fitted but I have not altered the size of the fit so it should look just fine as it is a modern flush look... took the idea from the wifes ST3 LOL

LCD I did not think they made plasma anymore? anyhows better pic and it will not kill it if it is not upright all the time just get a 1080.

I have to try the cherrie one as well! everyone up north gets pissed on buckfast now that stuff is (pish)

Ok all finnished now, I have posted a how to guide for anyone that is interested as well as a load of pics on my project site here. http://www.project300tt.com/2010/03/08/fabricating-double-din-centre-console/

Guys Where would you fit a second fuel pump? all I know is that it is in addition to the stock one to provide more volume but other than that I am clueless :sweatdrop:. Its nothing fancy just a 225lph one, I dont have any fancy pressure regulators or anything! Any pointers really appreciated.

Holy cows have you tried drinking that stuff.... absolutely unusal and very very nice. Well worth a try, its not my typical kind of thing but like a flavour explosion right off the bat. :gunsmilie: here is a review, I think it must be a birds drink as I stole a glass from the mrs, but seriously try it. http://www.ciao.co.uk/Sourz_Sour_Apple__Review_5228318

cool I will see if I c an get the ET20s on the front, I dont want any arch work just a set of 19s that fit nicely :sweatdrop: These puppies need to be right at this price so I dont want to take any chances.

Guys My stoptech brake blueprint went to japan a few weeks ago so they could tell me if I could get a set of 18s. Unfortunately they have reccomended 19s so those will be the seven spoke titanium as the five spokes dont go above 18s. Anyhows do these sizes look sensible enough from rays? Hi Martin, These are the sizes that RAYS recommend. 57S-pro Front:19x85 ET35B 5-114 - £653.04 + vat each Rear:19x95 ET35B 5-114 - £655.15 + vat each Colour: RMC/Ti rim Delivery time: 8 to 10 weeks from initial order. To place the order we will require a 25% deposit. The 57pro is not available in 19”

Ewwwwww :thumbdown: dont tell me they come with a free purple shell suit :drool:

Holy cows I will be going for something like JL etc thats nearly enough for a set of rims :thumbup: Post a pic of your home made one! did you paint it matt black?

Cheers John im just trying to decide on speakers that are the same kind of size so I dont need to hack the doors to bits.

Yeah I know what you mean, I wanted a perfect flush fit and countersunk mounting so I dicided to do it myself as the ready mades dont have the same look. The worst of the fiberglassing and filling is done now, I think one more skim of filler and I will be there but its looking good. Just need to decide if I go the whole hog and make the gauge pods as well?? My first job when I left school was working in a car Bodyshop so im really at home with a bit of filler lol. If it turns out well I will write up how to do it all.

Today I started building a real nice double din centre console for my new kenwood bluetooth phone satnav jobby as well as my EDFN switch. Because of the shape of the two inserts its actually quite tricky to get a perfectly flush fit, so I completely removed both sockets and have fiberglassed all the gaps and am in the process of countersinking and filling the front so it has a dead smooth look with a countersunk stereo trim so it will look mint. I will post some pictures when it is done and im thinking of making 4 gauge pods to go on the top over the vents as well.

Big job to do but the result will be really good :wacko: http://www.project300tt.com/2010/03/05/relocating-the-fuse-box-to-inner-whel-arch/

Ahh thanks, I cut it back stuck some braided hose on it and passed it up under the battery tray and into the wing through a hole there. I will try and find a one way valve to put on.

Anyone know??

There is no c/c that was partially deleted and all that was in the wing was a small air filter attached to a pipe on some hose.

ummm you are probably right did not think of that, I might do that, I was thinking about fiberglassing my own 4 pod configuration when I put the audio in as well.

Guys Im really struggling with a few bits so would really appreciate someone letting me know what these pipes do? Basically there are two pipes that come up from the rear of the engine bay where the fuel pipes come in. One dives through the passanger side bulkhead near a wire that I believe is the brake pad sensor? the other contines to run along towards the front of the car. Thing is a whole lot of stuff has been deleted from this car and its making it very difficult for me to find out what things do or did because they removed the odd bit, stuck a hose on the odd bit, and blanked the odd bit. Nothing ever seems to have been completely deleted!!!. If anyone can tell me what the pipes were/are for it would be a great help. Thanks
