Think I was first to ring, hopeI get it!

Its easy really. From the headunit you need: The phono cables (red and black plus all in one cable) these go to the amp part on the back of the box. Remote cable (small cable, normally blue, connect it to the back of the headunit which will have a blue wire or one labelled 'remote') Power...

Call now?

I'll be down for some of those babys tomorrow then if I get a chance!

My mate just got some kirby bucket seats for his 172, all aluminium, minimum material and padding, stupidly light and so comfy!

Picked up and fitted my new headunit earlier, fitted absolutely perfectly! It's an ebay special but cheap, and in absolute prfect condition, the bloke even bought a new cage before he sold it so all perfect! Ran all the wiring for my sub and amp coming later on this week so all went well!

^ very interesting read mate. This part of your job or just something you know?

^ yeahI know mate, the new ones are similar...!

Looks s**t hot mate, good work!

^ shut it, lol! Can't wait to get all the bits for it now! Gonna run all the wiring in the car through the week, pickup the headunit when i get in touch with the bloke, then hopefully my sub and amp will have arrived on friday ready to go in! Then just get the wheels delivered and bored out...

Well after being set on getting rid of my dynamique I've decided to keep it, low running costs are a winner to be honest! So anyways today I decided to have a bit of a flutter to make me love it again! Bought an Alpine headunit, Ryans sub and amp for a few more tunes. Then getting some new...

I'll give u 15p and my clio....!

How much for the Lupo!?

Noce one mate. When you say good on fuel how do you mean, my cousin has one and his is terrible, 260 miles out of a full tank and he doesn't drive it particularly hard.

Try elsewhere mate, at 21 with 2 no claims it should still be a decent price elsewhere. Try Adrian Flux and Greenlight. Although as ClioKhunt says it came standard and warranty work would still be carried out, so that to me would say it is standard, non altered from the manufacturers spec.

How old are you mate? Get some quotes with just the 2 no claims, then ring them up with the quote number and ask if you can use the 2 other no claims and you'll pay straight away. Although tht cup packs aren;t counted as mod's are they, just don;t tell them!

Why not spend the money insuring your car properly?

Whats all this laser stuff about?! Just a hobby?

^ no idea about upscaling :S How many aerial sockets did that include? We need 2/3 new ones and 1/2 connecting up from an old aerial.

Getting a new aerial on the house soon, I'm sure one of my mates said something about a digital aerial or something, to be honest I haven't got a clue if there are different types etc.... Just bought myself a nice HD TV so I want to be able to get the best quality picture, is there a specific...

^ you won't get it, 56/57 on the limiter.

Through money supermarket, company called PerformanceDirect.

After all the threads about this the last few days I thought I may as well have a look how bad it was for me. I'm 19, 2 years no claims, non fault claim, 3 points SP30, live in a 'D' cateory postcode. Got the quote for an '03 172 worth £5.5k, fully comp in my name. Cheapest quote was £1768...

My mate used to have an E28 to drift in, was an awesomely clean car, then he fucked it up completely and modified it to be lightweight in a terrible way, such a waste of a nice car!

I've timed mine 0-60 between 10 and 11 seconds. Not too bad at all, at the end of the day it's only a little shopping car. Got to laugh at all the sport owners taking the piss, everyone has to start somewhere with a car!

a 172/182 is only twice as fast as a 1.2 16v to 60mph, I wouldn't class that as 'much' quicker.....;)

Just wondered in all honesty, got 3 points so don;t fancy anymore so I always stick to the speed limit, but at the same time I don;t want to be pissing other drivers off stuck at 55 in a 60 if my speedo is out by a mile. I could buy a road angel etc but to be hoenst I'd rather not as it would...

I'm willing to bet a fair amount of money that it actually can't.

I think it's just mine to be completely honest, is there an adjustment on the cable etc for it, can I get it recalibrated with a lower tolerance?

Also to note it is a brand new tomtom top of the range thing, with all updates etc, if it makes any difference?!
