small update.

made up a shiftkit and mounted the switch inside the console. i also recieved my ghia power window switch from an EL, so its had a lick of paint to make it look right inplace. tomorrow it will go in. no more dodgy switch beside the drivers seat lol.

pic shows the switch for the shiftkit and also the window switches.

other random shots

also note this little doobey, given to me by my housemate luke. he removed it from his EF wagon as he doesnt use his console. looks awesome and is handy to keep the coins close by.

new sticker (bottom one)

not much has happened lately...

just been working, however i did get a new set of front splits. i decided on the cadence units due to sound quality. i re-ran wires for the tweeters, mounted the woofers, mounted the crossovers to the console.

i also removed the front speakers and installed them in the rear and now i have more FULL sound. alot more high range and more noticeable mid range. cant wait to amp them all

well i know i said no more audio stuff going on but there is one more update lol.
removed the JVC headunit and installed the SONY DVD player (yes i know what your thinking,, removing JVC to add SONY... i thought i was going backwards till i heard the crisp sound i now have... the difference is unbelievable. soo much more highrange now) and a flip out screen.

its not the best fitment as i thought hack this surround up to get it to fit then get another one and modify it properly to get the best fit and the neatest look.

That is pretty cool Huggie.

I like it.

And, yes you need to be able to record it.



The Battery terminals look good. Must do mine.
