Nice one 007. I used to work to for BMW and we had exactly the opposite problem on the service desk. Of the service advisors only one had any previous experience and SHE was a qualified mechanic. The other two were top blokes but when it got too technical needed to refer. Thing was male...

Cobra do a 2:1 upgrade that lets you use the original key, Im getting one fitted tomorrow. If you are gonna fit the alarm yourself you wont get a Thatcham Certificate.

Im having a Cobra 2:1 upgrade done tomorrow. Alarm works from original ket. 270.00 fitted but I added window closure and tilt so its costing me 380 all in.

Welcome

Definately join, the more new people the better. Im hoping to get to a meet soon and I dont wanna be the only first timer! lol

Hello and welcome

Welcome mate

Sleep well mate, only tonight and tomorrow for me...Ill sleep at the weekend lol. Actually Im off to get p*ssed in Scarborough so maybe not :D. Sounds like your all set, not sure that jacking the car up is going to set the alarm off if you havent got a tilt sensor tho...? But like he said you...

If your going to do that disconnect the rears. I was told to leave the rears alone and i fitted all my kit and left the factory rears in. Big mistake, they dragged the whole thing down. A nice pair of Infinity co-axials in the rear, the sound faded to the front a little and it was much...

lol

Have you thought about double glazing? Get the best...fit Everest. After all if you couldnt hear a helicopter landing outside... As for sound the guys are right, get components front, co-ax rear and a sub & amp. You need the bass for classical or you wont hear half the string section.

The factory immobiliser will stop it running away, I wanted the alarm for the ICE and in case of vandals. I got tilt to look after the alloys and in case anyone tried to tow it. Wih regard to tilt I wouldnt worry abouit false alarms, the electronic tilt they use now basically calibrates at...

Sounds right. Im getting closure and tilt sensors. The alarm itself was 270. Sixty for closure and 50 for electronis tilt sensor. Having it fitted Friday. Watch me get broken into on Thursday night !

Sorry to ask the obvious but you got the + and - the right way round I take it?

Eh up mate. You will probably find they are nicely reproducing the crap sound from the old HU. Youll notice a difference when the new HU comes.

If its just the head unit then fit it yourself. Will take about 5 mins to do. Is all plugs and clips, no wiring or cutting needed.

I have used them twice on both occasions the kit (my F7700 and following that a pair of Pioneer tweeters) were delivered very swiftly. I order the HU at 11pm on a Friday night and had it delivered Wednesday (which Id count as two days cos they wouldnt have the order til Monday). The speakers...

Ive got the F7700 and Im pleased with it. Went for Sony because I had the adaptor for stalk and display. (http://www.connects2.comwww.connects2.com) - DRNS003. Only things I dont like with it are the silver surround I got (which I changed for a black one) and the fact that some of the controls...

Its def a 7700.

PS Notice your pic that the buttons are red and the trim is black. Mine has blue buttons and had a silver trim...not sure if the spec changed.

Eh up. I got one. It sounds great and looks good two, only two gripes with it: 1. Not all the functions are available from the HU, you have to use the IR remote. These being the set up menu and the disp / PTY button amongst other stuff. No day to day stuff though unless you use PTY or want use...

Cheers Ill have a look. :)

Thanks for the kind offer mate but unless Chris wants a look, Ill not have you taking the dash out again. I fitted Pioneed TSS-15 tweeters and I like the fact that the tweeters do point at me rather than the roof but I must admit Id have done what you did if its as easy as it sounds. The...

Thanks guys. Im in Leeds, W.Yorks. I had a look around but those prices seem to be about right round here. Can you recommend anywhere thatll fit the alarm in my area?

My local alarm specialists seem to know what they are talking about...except that they disagree with each other completely! So I thought Id ask you guys instead. I dont HAVE to have a Thatcham alarm for my Clio and Direct Line wont reduce my policy (tight gits) if I get one but I figure it...

RB_172 what fixings did you use mate? I couldnt find any way to do it without making something up and I didnt fancy that. BTW I didnt stick em on the dash cos I didnt think theyd look good, I mounted em on the trim on the inside of the wing mirror, at an angle and they look okay. I used the...

Chris, definately join but I wouldnt bother trying to change the tweeters. If you buy a component set the new speakers will be 1" or 1.5" and the Reno speakers are bigger. Just mount the new tweeters elsewhere.

Hint: I found on my last two Clios that the top clip on the plastic b-pillar trim on the door wont pop back on securely from some reason. Just keeps popping baclk off. If you have this problem I found that you can remove the female from the trim and pop it onto the male on the door and then...

If there is a clicking noise its probably a relay. Track it down and try a new one
