Hi everyone, my local motor factors are looking into the possibility of a local magazine creation, based around the general car enthusiasts genre. The magazine will vary in tastes to cater for a wide audience, ranging from in-car-electronics, exterior styling, interior styling, engine...
or if you want to do it properly, take the wheel and tyre to a tyre centre, ask them nicely to take the tyre off and then go through the steps, much easier then.
I would like to say me with my project ice clio, but its a bit excessive, running a diamond wall with 8 12" subs, four amplifiers, 5 batteries, and a rediculous amount of sound deadening. Will be doing the scenes shortly, just coming out of the bodyshop as we speak. Aiming for mid 150s
I'm in the process of building two 6.5" woofers into my show project car, you could fit anything there in moderation, however i think a 10" coaxial speaker from vibe, is possibly one of the worst pathways to go down, i would have gone for a good quality 6.5" component setup. Much easier fitment...
depends on how intricate you want to go, loads of ppl have adapted the top section of the dash to impliment a screen into it. If you want a good viewing central angle for driver and passenger viewing, i would look at possibly the heater vents, or even the centre console. Or look into sunvisor...
What has been done to the mk1 clio. I've seen all the direct replacements, but who has gone the extra step and installed completely different headlights?
I've heard rumours of a leon conversion.....
autoacoustics, but hes on about mounting the subwoofer in the floor, thats easy mate, just make an enclosure in the spare wheel recess and bobs ya uncle.
You can either make the most of the space in there and fiberglass the spare wheel shape or you could simply just box it out and seal a false...
I have a 1.2rl mk1 phase three clio. I stripped the dash and all the connectors for bodywork to be done. I've gone to rewire everything today to start the car, and the renault standard engine cut out keeps switching the engine off, and the key recognition switch keeps flashing on the dash dials...
don't be daft, course u'll heard the front speakers amped with that amount of power, their completely different frequency ranges. I would certainly consider sound deadening the car tho, clios do like to rattle a tad, and btw, excellent kit, i challenged their van in the finals at oxford and lost.
hey guys, I just bought a new car and my little clio has to be sold up, so excess to requirements. Just after an idea of how much i should be asking for for the following install :http://www.fiestaturbo.com/phpBB/photogallery.php?mode=viewgallery&u=2162
theres the link to the pics, scroll down...
yea mate its a bit trickey as theres like a black gunk adhesive that bonds it to the roof skin. You need to undo the visors, and unclip all the surround ceiling grab holders and clips and curtousy light etc. Then slowly work it off, attempting to break the bond of the adhesive. Then keep one...
why spend £60, take the rear seat out, offer up a 12mm mdf panel and cut to size and shape of the back of the seat, then screw directly to the seat, dont use velcro, itll just fall off, and trim like that, I have a kk 1 so the back of the seat is metal so not so much of a problem, but there mut...
youll be fine mate, when u cut down the original handbrake cover down the centre, be sure that the lever inside doesnt fall down, cos theres a small spring thats held in place so hold the whole thing tight when ur cutting it, then when its cut through, slowly pull it off, and hold the button and...
doh well i think ive def lost it, the dont sell just the spring do they? also how does the button platsic part insert back into the main handbrake section at the lower part where the cogs are, as i can seem to figure out how to elease it, but not to lock the levers again so it holds on the...
ok i know theres a similar post on this page at the moment, but i thought id get a better response towards my problem in a seperate post.
I have removed the original handbrake handle, and as chance has it, the spring fired out and I cant see to find it. Can u buy this part from Renault? Also...
hate to dig this up from the past but if the spring does come out how do you put it all back together and do renault actually list the spring as i cant seem to find it.
looks good matey. would be worth while adding in a little bit of sound deadening to the tailgate especially, as now with no rear seats, ull hear the tailgate rattle to the bass from the sub.
do you honsetly think that an insurance company is going to have enough sense to notice youve even done it, dont lose sleep over it just leave it undeclared.
dont get magnat mate unless ya looking at their higher end of the ranges. I used to work for maplins and all the budget speakers sounded poo in my opinion in all customers cars, including staff. If your on a budget look at makes such as alpine,jbl, infinity and focal. Again dont spend too much...
try cobra mate, i have cobra monaco buckets a few months back and have now ordered the matrials to match to do all the door card inserts, rear headrests and bench, costs £25 for nylon, and £33 for velour, all depending on your shop tho that are willing to get it for you. The measurements of that...
when i had my rear seats out, i played around with two ses in a sealed and a ported, and the ported sounded great pointing towards the roof, and sub facing up aswell. the sealed sounded better facing forward. but all circustances are fifferent, yet i have harnessed and buckets aswell, so give...
you can get them through here too : http://www.silvercruise.co.uk/carsunvisormonitors.htmhttp://www.silvercruise.co.uk/carsunvisormonitors.htm,
im thinking about getting one for xmas, want two ideally, but one will have to do first. whats the viewing angle like on it? does it strain your neck...
bad idea dont put it under the seat, for one some1 will sit on it and damage it, two itll over heat like mad, it needs sufficient space around it to vent the heat off that it produces. Id keep it simple make yourself a flase floor and mount it under there with some fance or put it under the...
