Basically when does my cambelt need changing? I think the Haynes manual says 36,000 miles, My service manual says 71,000 miles..... at what mileage have all done it at? Cheers Nick

Id say so.... seeing as how he has a ZOO! Pitbull in his boot. Im on Trials Forum too...

like i said.... the dash needs to come off.

To change the tweeters you have to take the dash off. Pop off the little silver (unless its blue on the billabong) strips on the dash and undo all the bolts. Un-screw the 3 bolts at the back of the dash and the two at the side.... lift the dash out. Unclip the tweeter and simply replace with...

But what are the extra cables for? Surely to do four speakers and two separate tweeters you need 8 lengths of wire. 2 to do rear right speaker, 2 to do rear left speaker, 2 to do front right speaker and tweeter and 2 to do front left speaker and tweeter. My understanding is that the wire for...

Right, i have two quick questions that i need answering. First one: Will this speaker cable be adequate for door speakers? Is it the right Gauge etc... http://www.theloudest.co.uk/?sectionid=2&page=view_product&product_id=101 Second One: What are the following wires for in the picture? I...

Good idea Jamie! Might give that a go as there are two spaces at the bottom where i could do this. Cheers Nick

I have decided that i am going to re-wire the speaker wire in my clio. I have two problems so far: How do i get the wiring out of the back of the 8 block connector? Also, where do i get the connectors that come out of the 8 block connector? (these are also what connects the woofer wire to...

Heres one for ya: Not mine though. Its a mate of mine, in his Zetec S.

im looking at getting my windows tinted. I dont want a big contrast though. Looks a bit silly having limo black in the back and nothing in the front. How would 60 V.L.T look all round? I know thats illegal on the front, so maybe 70 V.L.T in the front.

Saw the Trophy again today, was following behind me on the motorway for a bit until we came to the Hedge End junction at which i came off and he hurtled past me. Then whilst going into McDonalds car park a Black 182 was in front of me but turned up to KFC direction. Both at about 12.00pm.

Oh right, where have you mounted the crossover boxes then? I was gonna mount them under the footwell in front of the door where all the wires come in.

God knows how you managed that with the tweeters! The tweeter and woofer wire is on the same side.....

Before you put the wires into the crossover just touch the ends that you cut with the speaker terminals... if theres a noise, you cut the right ones. I managed to cut my electric window wire when i first did it!

anytime mate. Need anymore help just give us a PM or post on here.

Lovely. Looks red and white to me. Ok, now it doesnt. Its original...

Well, what you could do is cut a bit of the wire off of the tweeter wire, theres plenty of it and you wont need much.

Ok, i assume you know how to wire up the door speakers. Fairly simple, just make sure you know which wire is positive and which is negative. Then disconnect the standard Tweeter and tuck the cable away somewhere. Mount the alpine tweeter and run the wire along the side of the dash to the...

Sam, are you trying to fit the Alpine speakers?

I dont know what is going on. I believe it is the passenger door, i slam it s**t and the light will go off, but the slightest movement and the interior light goes on. Its almost like it thinks the door is open all the time.... obviously. what can i do to stop it? thanks Nick

Front and rear 13cm or 5 1/4".

whats in your picture, is that what came off? Thats exactly what i had come off.

I had this exact same problem today! What i did was pull the seat forward, push the plastic thing in and push it in as far as it will go. Then put the seat all the way back and it should click back in to its proper place. Worked for me anyway.

Re: Archived Post from old forum Theres one on eBay at the moment. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=009&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&viewitem=&item=190124022046&rd=1&rd=1

As title really. Would like to know as it is so much cheaper over there for stuff. Cheers Nick

After making quite a mess of my car wiring i am now seriously considering re-wiring the whole car! What i would like to know is about how much cable will i need to re-wire from the headunit to the front doors and into the cards, from the headunit to the tweeters and from the headunit to the rear...

That's not good! Just noticed you live near Fareham which is worryingly close to me. Where did it happen? Glad there wasn't any major damage, you should have just driven straight at them, hopefully run a few over.. It was in LocksHeath. Just by Swanwick train station.

well, now that its light ive had a chance to look at what they have actually done. There are a few scratches along the passenger door and a small dent just below the rear window! Nothing major luckily. Hopefully ill be able to make he scratch less obvious with a bit of t-cut or something. Its...

Bloody chavs piss me off so much. On my way back home tonight after a mates party, got in my car to take friends home and head off back myself. All of sudden all these chave came out of nowhere and started throwing what i think was logs at my car!! Im so annoyed, i checked my car over and i...

ok, cool. Thanks
