Alan and EvilJohns day of fun!! ;) (56k)

[Djw John]

Well, I braved the ghetto and went over to Alans yesterday to swap over his sounds from his old 1.2 and put them in his 182. I was also kind enough to let Al clean my car. For all the slagging I give him about his ocd the man knows his stuff Car came up really well after being clayed for the first time in 6 years and 75k so big thanks to Al for doing that.

I took a few pics throughout the day!

Cheers
John

Nice work guys, did Alan do the arches?

 

[Djw John]

lol damn right he did!! Put some Megs stuff on them, think it was meant for tyres but spins off too easily. The only thing he didnt do was the inside, fair enough its a state at the mo! and the plastics as I've done them recently.

 

[dannyboy172]

Apologies for this dumbass Q - why is the dash off? All that to install the amp power cable?

Cars looking sweet as tho matey!

 

[Djw John]

No its front comps as well with hidden crossovers in the dash.

Its a nice and subtle install.

Oh, thats a neat idea. Keeps everything nicely hidden. Cool.

 

[Dan Page]

nice one.
i have opted not to put any ice in my next 182 other than after market h/u and speakers.
i think some of the more hardcore members have got me thinking amps/subs are to much weight lmao...

 

[Djw John]

The subs quite light tbh, I doubt Al will notice much difference with that install, different story when you start using false floors I guess

[Djw John]

[Alan]

Lol ^^

 

[stoddie]

good work lads!

john is the dash hard to come out? what about passenger side airbags? youve gave me an idea of hiding all my wiring up in there now!

cheers
stoddie

 

[Djw John]

Rob, cheers, I like to think I know what Im doing!! 11 hours to do it all but cos all the wires had been precut and crimped that saved some time

 

[Djw John]

Stoddie on our shape I can have the dash off in under 10 minutes, the airbag is easy as well just 4 bolts. I didnt take it out fully, just moved it off to one side.

 

[stoddie]

cheers mate!

thats a job for when i come back....

have a good one
stoddie

 

[Tigger]

[Djw Dave]

[Giles]

Nice pics!

John - your car looks mint:approve:

 

[R20 CWH]

guid show chaps.

 

[Leeshez]

Looks good

 

[Djw John]

Cheers lads. Yeah the bumpers will get redone again next time I clean it. Well pleased how well it came up. Only problem is whatever polish Al used has stopped my wipers working well so gonna have to redo the windscreen but thats a small price to pay!

 

[_Kenny_]

Good pics lads. Great work by both

John, your car came up mint! I need to get some clay when the new paint has settled methinks

Al, how's your mum enjoying the C1? Good to see your old motor!

Its not too bad, theres a guide how to in the articles section on here mate

 

[Alan]

Aye kenny she's liking it mate...

Mr B no comment...

Holligan...bring it back over n al re do it.

 

[cli0 172]

^u gonna re-imburse him his fuel also ?

seems fair .... he is a student after all

 

[Ally]

Taking the dash out is a piece of p*ss with the guide - even I managed it. Stick got wiring/somthing rattling around behind the headunit area, doing my nut in.

Both cars looking good - actually seeing John's car clean is a nice surprise
