m@thew : so would H&S make a custom Mk2 172 zorst do you think? Ill have to have a word with my mate, who is good friends with one of the blokes there...
How much is the Hill Power one, and is it any good?!
Ive been thinking of getting a Clio Cup Orbisound system
OR
...getting Hayward & Scott to make a s/s one up for me
I have to say though that the std Mk2 172 lights (with the indicators replaced with Philips Silver Vision bulbs) look pretty good to me. Their design is a little Lexus-esque in the first place!
Id be interested to know too IMHO, the std speakers are quite rough at the top end, a little tissy and not particularly clear. They do kick out some reasonable bass though!
I was thinking of something along the lines of MB Quart components front and rear maybe??
Id like carbon fibre:-
* Engine/rocker cover
* A post covers
* Front slam panel cover (panel above front grill, with bonnet open)
...not interested in eyebrows or other tacky mods
Thanks for the reply! Sounds like a top install What make are MB?? And did you build your own enclosure for the JL sub? I was thinking of using an AutoAcoustics StealthBox...
Where abouts are you? Maybe I could audition your system? My email is jjw@cwcom.net
Thanx!
Jason Ripps FRST used to run 18" Techonomag Detroits, diamond cut, and looked superb! Its on the front cover of Performance Ford this month (with different alloys mind).
Err, dont think I want to remove the air-con controls!!
The tweeters/system sounds OK, but its nowt special!! I reckon an MB Quart setup might sort it out.
As for subs, AutoAcoustics do a very nice StealthBox which fits into one side of the boot and takes anything from an 8" to a 12" sub...
Finally got the radio code for my new 172, and got to audition the in-car CD/radio. Hmmm.....not that impressive is it?!
What size are the front/rear speakers? 5.25"? Can you fit 6" or bigger? Im thinking of something from the MB Quart range.
Also, how easy is it to get to the tweeters in...
