Ive just had a bit of a windfall & was thinkin of a new ICE system for my Grande. Got about £400 to spend.
Ive already got an Alpine HU but might upgrade to an MP3 system but thats by the by, sound is my main priority.
Front components & an amp, which 1s, theres so many!
Rear speakers or...
What sort of set up have u got FincH?
Do u have rear speakers & a sub? Im hopeless with these types of things & any advice would be appreciated.
Just come into a bit of money so Ive got about £200-£300
I dont wanna go over the top I just want some quality sounds in my little car.
any ideas?
anybody?
should i just ditch the sonys & get components & amp them?
any suggestions,ive got £100 to spend.
i was thinking of getting a sub but ive heard its best to get good comps & amp them.
I took my Alpine HU out of my W plate 1.2 the other day to fit the steering column remote wires from Autoleads. They didnt work so i sent them back. When i re-fitted my stereo & switched it on all settings were back to factory set. When i turned the bass up to its previous position the sound is...
Anyone know where I can get 1 of these from?
Just phoned autoleads & they said they have released a new all in 1 lead for most makes of HUs, anyone know where the best place to get 1 of these from?
Ive got a 2000 Clio with the steering remote & I was wondering if there are any leads available to allow this function to work with my Alpine 7872RB head unit? Also, will the head up (dash) display work as well?

Halfords where I am dont stock Alpine adapters but if they did the bloke told me that they would cost in the region of £70!(shocking)
Phoned autoleads who said there was a new adapter coming onto the market which works with Alpine, Sony, Kenwood, Panasonic & JVC (universal basically) in the...
OK cheers clio172boy, your info has been much appreciated.

Nothings happening for a while so im gonna have a chat with some local ICE dealers & c wot theyve gotta say for themselves, fingers crossed.

Im just looking for an all round system nothing to monstrous, just something that will give good sound as i have a varied CD collection.
Clio172boy - had a look at the type R subs & came across this...
Im new to the ICE business & I want a little more noise from my Clio. Ive got an Alpine CDM-7872RB HU & ive replaced the speakers all round with Sony Xplod ones. Im thinking of getting an amp & a sub but dont know the first thing about them. Ive got a bit of coin to spend but not a great amount...
I got the same prob as u mate but my cig hit my steering wheel & burst into little cherries putting little holes in my seat! Really pi**ed my off cause i spoiled my car!
That Halfords kit takes ages to match the colour of your seat with the fibres in the kit! I tried it, it looked perfect in...
Checked all the bolts on both rear wheels & they are solid but the knocking is still there!:(
Im wondering if the spacers that EvilJohn mentioned will work, any ideas where i can get these from?
Nice 1 guys.:D Ill check the bolts to see if they are tightened sufficiently.
Wot about the spacers? Anyone out there with the same car & wheels whove fitted spacers? Where do i get them from?
Sorry for all the questions, Im new to this business & need all the help I can get. Can you blame...
Ive recently put 16" 172 alloys on my 1.2 Grande & when I go around a corner theres a knocking sound which i think is coming from the back. Its more prominent when ive got passengers in the back.
Any ideas anyone?
This never happened when the original steel wheels were on!
