Thanks! :)
Just to add to that, the reason why I got so many pics (and why they also might seem a bit "crappy") is that I bought a cheap 0.3 mpixel digi/webcam, which also acts as an MP3 player...
I put some pictures up to the Web, if you want to take a look, though theyre not that informative or professional looking. Anyway, the URL is: http://koti.mbnet.fi/~teped/http://koti.mbnet.fi/~teped/
I finally got the rear wires installed. I cut the original from the head units end and connected my own.
In overall, it all sounds very decent now. Surprisingly full in bass, though there are no subs or amps. Of course, it might sound even better then...
But now I really wish the HU had a...
My girlfriend drives Nissan Almera sportdeck. Its a bigger car, and it has a bigger engine than my Clio. And it doesnt look that bad although she hasnt added anything to it. And its there for a WOMAN? So, actually Im the lady in the house with my tiny Clio...? :p
No, I dont feel Ive lost...
Im a guy, and I drive a Clio. Though I do not own a sports Clio but a regular one. And just like women, I personally dont care about the horse powers or mega cool ICE that much (though Ive fitted the speakers in myself). But when it came to choose my Clio I figured...
I tested the other small...
Huh, now Ive finally Been there and Done that. I took down the side panels and completely remoted the rear seats. But did not find any needed wires... Interesting, because they are there in the HUs end.
But compared to the dash removal, this was MUCH easier. The operation took somewhat and...
Yeh... Im also beginning to think that maybe its not such a good idea to tear the car apart for just fitting a few cheap speakers.
But doh! I just checked the price for Renaults 4x22W radio with CD and 6 speakers from http://www.renault.co.ukwww.renault.co.uk - £100. Thats about 159 €...
Dammit!
I tried to find the wires using a mirror and a flashlight. I found a million wires going to the back of the car, but no audio wires. Nope!
Seems like I have to take out the back panels and the rear seats... and for doing that, I really believe... uhm, hope the wires actually ARE...
Too bad I eventually didnt have time yesterday to dig into it...
I was also thinking about fitting better suspension or shock absorbers, because the new wheels make the car a bit shaky feeling at lower speeds. But as always, money is the issue... :) But maybe til next summer Ill do it.
Yes - the reason is 730 EUR, which is the price for Radiosat around here. I think thats just way too much for a CD player and 6 adequate speakers.
So far Ive paid 250 EUR for the HU (JVC KD-LH7R, which has MP3 but rather poor EQ), 95 EUR for the component speakers (SPL Dynamics PRO-5.2A) and...
Yes yes, I definetely agree to what youre talking about. So, I already have a 5.25" component system fitted to the front side, and already figured out that the woofers and tweeters in the front are connected by the same wires by simply fading the sound from front to the rear (resulting in...
Yes, that http://www.caraudiodirect.co.ukwww.caraudiodirect.co.uk site is excatly where I first looked for advice. And I had no problems with fitting the 5.25" to the front doors - the car salesman even showed me where to find the wires in the front doors (even if no audio is fitted in the...
Thanks for the information. I think Ill stick to my "backup plan" then, which is basically a pair of 5.25" coaxials in the side panels of rear seats. Of course stealth shelves would be nice, but I just dont know where to get them from around here in Finland...
But uhm... if 6x9s wont fit...
I finally got my brand new, shiny Clio from the car dealer last Wednesday. I already changed the pre-fitted wheels to 15" alloys.
Im not a HiFi enhustiast, but of course I just had to fit in new MP3/CD-player, mid woofers and tweeters this weekend (because no audio was included in the deal)...
