The ash on the dash and in the tray.. wow.. why don't they flick the ash out of the window and threw the end out when they're done lol
Nice work, looks a lot better now :)
I picked up these EDGE 13cm speakers, they work well and the quality is decent even at higher volumes. They fit straight into the doors, only required snipping the old default connector off, then soldering/crimp/etc the new cables to it, then just connect them to the speakers :)...
Haha, I used some funky tube things which you heat up and they shrink to join the wires, worked quite well!
That's pretty good, the ones I've been looking at are around £400 or so with tyres. They're 15" Calibre Rapide in black. Probably getting Yokohama wet weather tyres on them since it tends...
Snipped off the original connectors and soldered the new ones to it :)
Black with the white line on it is the positive and that connects to the cream coloured one iirc
No issues as of yet and they've been in over a week now.
Your car looks really nice, I can't wait to get alloys for mine...
Thanks! I really need to get it detailed properly at some point, it definitely deserves it :)
Dynamique spoiler is on its way, should arrive Monday hopefully.
Yeah, I need to get dual optics at some point, but my MOT and Tax are due so I'm holding back atm haha
The speakers are from here...
Get her to try the spare key, I had this problem last week and it took me days to work out what it was. Tried new battery etcetc, ended up being my key getting denied by the immobiliser :P
That's the only one with noticeable marks in the speaker bay or whatever it's called.
I'm unsure if its from these but seems most likely as I didn't notice them when I changed them.
Last pic shows how I wired them (snipped the connector off, joined the new wires to the car wires using some...
Some EDGE ones, they were like £25 for a pair or about that. 150watt 13cm I believe. Wasn't after anything super demanding, just needed to replace the default ones due to distortion/old age.
I don't hear any vibration etc inside the car, the audio sounds fine most of the time depending on...
Like this? If I buy two of those that will do all 4 speakers, since I'm not doing the whole door.

I can't hear a rattle inside the car, but if music is on and I'm outside of it I can hear it rattle haha.
Thanks for the replies guys, shall leave them intact then :) !
Found an image of the bit I mean,
The sunken in bit. I'm just wondering if it will melt at all since the back of the speakers are pressed up against it.
Hey
I've installed new door speakers, they sit really snug into the slot for the original ones, however the back of them and the magnet are against the plastic 'surround'/'casing' in the doors, just wondering if this is a problem due to heat from the speakers?
Should I cut the plastic out so...
