Install preview & a simple mod

[Tigger]

Well after many requests I've decided to post a few pics of my install
BEWARE - this is unfinished :evil:

Rear cards & C-pillars are still to be trimed in black vinyl to match the doors

I wanted to change to the 172 last month but couldn't part with mine for £4k :nono:
There's an animal under the bonnet in the 172 - mine's in the boot :evil:

Hope you like "so far" :approve:

Upgraged to the BOSCH flat wipers;

never thought I'd be so happy with my rubber

[White16valver]

Nice choice of kit and top quality work on the install

Not 100% on the blue light-up bits though - leeeeetle bit chav imo lol

 

[James.]

Not into Ice and all that but the work looks good quality.

 

[JD]

looking good mate as per, decided not to go with the 172 then? was 4k for trade in or private sale?

jamie

 

[Tigger]

It was a trade-in price. The dealer was going to transport the 172 over from Leeds & put a warranty on it.

I'lll save for the car, a flight and a ferry in due course

 

[crow]

Door cards are fantastic - the crossover bit looks like lots of heard work to get square.

cant se from the photos but what amps you running? notice the exide and split charging so I bet you are pulling a few amperes ...

 

[Englebert]

Chavtastic. Where do you put the golf clubs?

:lolup: I'm guessing you're being serious?
Chavs buy cheap & nasty stuff, ssssssh don't tell anyone!

That setup is currently worth more than my car which will be swapped over into the 172 when I get one,
along with an alcantara dash & retrimed seats to match :approve:

Who the fook plays golf anyway? lol

Thanks for all the comments ^ that's the funniest one yet :rasp:

The amps are both Focal, 800w mono to run the sub & 4chnl bridged to run the front end

Still needs a few finishing touches and some tweaks in the setup, other than that it's going well so far

 

[al]

Who the fook plays golf anyway? lol

Exactly!! :approve:

 

[Mikey]

alcantara dash that wll look mint cant wait to see ^^

in all seriousness i know which one you were chatting about the other day on msn, and i would have driven it over for you with a mate to drive me back. . . . if you trust me lol

jamie

 

[Tigger]

Good idea - double road trip hehe

I'll have to keep an eye out for one when the funds are available and maybe tie-in with a CS meet while I'm over there picking it up

 

[leo529]

Chavtastic. Where do you put the golf clubs?

^^hes just jealous.....lol
nice install love the doors, actual lov it all amazin job :approve:

 

[Tigger]

I was thinkin that - bless his cotton socks lol

Cheers I'm just as chuffed now with the comments as I was when I picked the car up!

 

[rustybolt]

that deserves some praise indeed, superb mate!

Top notch gear, top notch workmanship. LEDS are not chav when you see what they're trying to highlight, not as if its a JBL sub or something, personally id have some 500w halogen worklamps in there to show off that install at shows.

Well done Tigger! Hope you bring it to FCS so i can have a perve!

good plan matey, be great to meet up. you gonna come to FCS?

jamie

 

[Tigger]

Not sure if it will be comming across the water this summer - got a few things on the financial calendar lol
Although it would be great to meet up with a lot of members and maybe even price a few 172's while I'm over there - keep dreaming Trev!

We'll see what happens - it's early days yet

 

[JD]

keep dreaming Jamie!

 

[caymanr26]

well impressed - would love all that in my car but cant afford it all! really well done job - good on you
