    Guide to Changing Interior Dash lights

    Yeh, I reckon a piece of thin plastic will do, so long as it doesnt diffuse the light too much and I end up seeing nothing! I guess I could always just get a blue/green bit of plastic

    Guide to Changing Interior Dash lights

Dont know what to do though as my interior bulb is actually green! but i guess my clock can be blue or green, with a blue/white...

    Pics of my Clio

    Lexus lights tend to be advised against by the people oln here who dont tend to like any modification that looks too different! Though I have the renault crystal ones and IMO they look gorgeous, esp with my pearl black colour. May be getting them tinted slightly as they do tend to reflect a fair...

    Guide to Changing Interior Dash lights

    Yeh, Ill see what it turns out like when Ive placed them You said the trip compter screen display went blue with white letters when the white led was behind it? Just hope that works on my 1.2 16v! You reckon that the same sized LEDs will fit where the other backlit illumated areas of the car...

    Guide to Changing Interior Dash lights

    Yeh, Ill see if it works! I dont see how it shouldnt, just depending on where I place them (you said the white ones behind the trip computer screen made the surround blue, right?) Hopefully thatll work on my non renaultsport Do you tihnk the same sized LEDs will work with other backlit...

    GUTTED. My 182 - keyed (no 56k)

    I symapthise, Id hate it if it ever happened to me though. However are you sure it was keyed? someone mentioned further up about a kids bike getting a car. If idiots do these things they tend to like getting all the panels they can and as many cars as they can. It might have been someone had a...

    Pics of my Clio

    dont bother with induction kit, and its the exhaust that would push your premiums up not a quicky fix for noise making! Nice car though ;) looks like mine except for side repeaters and wheels Get colour coded handles, imo. simple - but looks really nice once fitted and blends in so nicely.

    why are my speakers distorting

    yes it would. It would cause distortion as the amp then gives out a voltage to the speakers based on what it is told by the gains, so to speak For example, a test cd i used once was the wrong frequency as it was recorded wrong and the rockford amp it was using on ended up with channels giving...

    why are my speakers distorting

    Then its sounds like a deifnite gains set wrongly problem to me. Do you know what position the gains are at now atm? With sonys they quote high preouts so lots of people set the gains at that but in fact the voltage they give it very low. So the preamp may be trying divide then amplify by a...

    why are my speakers distorting

    its highly likel;y they may have set the gains by ear and with a sony thats not a good idea as the preout voltages can be a bit tempermental. Take it in and get them to SCOPE it using a test cd. being professionals they should do this and make them do it in front of you if you have to Are you...

    why are my speakers distorting

    is the amp scoped from that headunit using an osciloscope?

    Why does this happen

    Or by a 2channel PG octane r (over 75w rms) off me for the fronts ;) Brand new :)

    Ice expert needed!

    IF you go on the RF website and take a look at their manual database you should be able to find a spec for it in there

    Why does this happen

    But does the amp have enough channels to run the speaker off them too? Sounds to me like the amp on the h/u is definitely going into protection - as they tend to run only less than 20rms (even though they state it as higher) Id also advise new speakers as soon as poss if youre going to...

    ice where to buy from

    In my experience, car audio direct ia the best place. they have a forum for audio questions too with lots of people who know their stuff. the customer service is great, all other online places have been lukewarm in that depertment

    Cant believe Renault

    If anyone remembers my previous post about the mis-sold parts, they may see how annoyed I am! Dealership manager called me again, saying renault uk wont let me return them and that basically its tough luck his staff are rubbish. I called renault uk and was told they cant do anything as its up...

    Smoked side repeaters

    who are you getting to carbon your mirrors? Coz I need someone to do the plastic strip on my bumper :)

    What do you think of these

    i wouldnt, Id spend the extra and get better.(tho mine are worth 750 so maybe not that much!) The wattage doesnt mean much until youre competing with them, esp with a company like vibe, they will have spend effort getting the wattage up to look impressive and compromised on speaker quality...

    Love this idea ! (pic)

    its 33hz, coz that silly westwood mag was called that. I dont care if its impractical. looks nice and lots of show cars are impractical. tbh piper i doubt if someone has done all this work theyd just mess it up with somethign big and ported behind those seats.

    Clio Stalk/Display/Speaker Adapters

    MY boyfriend bought the top of the range pioneer h/u. but it would work with the steering controls. so he used his annoyingly big brain and bought a learning remote control, wired it for the controls, then set up the infra red on his centre console to his h/u - works a treat and only cost him...

    Bloody Renault Again!

    Idiots!! Heres the story: My dads friend work for renault, so on the pub one day I asked if he can get metal pedal covers for a normal extreme mk2 ph2 and a bump strip (for 172 bumper as mine didnt have one) and he tells me the pedals will fit straight on. It gets ordered apparently, I...
