    threadin cables through doors

    Do you recon that seeing as how i dont have any acbles going to my doors, i could just source the rubber bit and remove the wirign plug from the inside of the car, and drill a large hole through the wiring plug and just thread the cable through, and just have that as the only cabel going through.

    Halfords are a bunch of noddys

    Not tryign to stick up for them, the only time ive asked for advice at Halfords it was wrong, but could it be the guy had only recently started, just think you may be being a bit harsh on him.

    cathode vu meter

    You can get LED lights that flash in time to the music, maybe the controller unit from one of those, i wouyld imagine they work on the same priniciple. I would imagine it would use a sound sensitive resistor to vary voltage supply.

    Where to buy power cable online

    Demon Tweeks sell 105A, and 135A battery cable in blk and red from £1.76/metre, apart from that i would imagine that somewhere like halfords sells it, much easier to get it from a shop rather than mail order. Obviously the above aint 2 guage, try giving demon tweeks a ring, often they have...

    where to get things colour coded

    I didnt sand mine, paint stucks fine, all depends on whether u want a smooth finish in the end, you can always use some high build primer over the plastic primer - much easier than sanding. Although when i paitn my dash im gonna smooth it all

    E-Tech Ali Spoiler Fixing

    nope, my m8 got the terminator kit, i think mk1 clios look ok wiht bodykits on, the only prob is lowering the arse end if u dont upgrade the dampers u cant take much weight, e.g. m8s

    E-Tech Ali Spoiler Fixing

    So the general consensus is that i should get it lowered, and get lexus lights, and maybe a body kit before i fit the alloy spoiler?

    Cabling and Build Advice

    I would work on the theory that the bigger then better, having too large a guage cable wont hurt, but having to small a one will.

    What wheels

    What i did when gettign mine was to find a pic of the hweels, take a pic of the car and actually put the wheels on the car in the pic to see how it looked. Wheel size, as a general rule you can go 2" bigger wihtout having to do any arch modifications. I have OZ Titan ones on mine...

    where to get things colour coded

    Tbh its so easy you may as well do it yourself. When i did mine i was a complete newbie to spray painting. All you have to do is remember to do lots of thin even coats. Remove the trim from the car, give it a light sand, degrease it with sommet like meths. Do about 4/5 thin coats of...
