Default help with ideas

Hope these help... 1.1's are better than the 950 bit more power for motorway's. Burgandy's nice but can be a common colour so ive gone for a home made one of a kind blue on mine but you could get any colour mixed up for ur's the more original one of a kind are best if you going to show's coz that way you really stand out. an xr2 dash is easy 6 torx bolts and old out and new in. the rev counter is slightly harder but this should help "The rev counter. You'll need to pull a cable from the dash to the coil in the engine compartment. The cable needs to be spliced into the green one (top one). fitting an oil press gauage and fuel to air gauge come with good instructions on how to fit. the 14" escort steelies will fit as ive got 15's on mine and they fit perfect. to lower the car the best idea is just to swap out the springs for the rears just jack the entire arse up and the springs just pull out and the fronts are same as any other coil overs. lowering kit's to all sizes are easy to get hold of and reletivly cheap. the 2 spotlights on the bumper, kits are available on ebay for the brackets needed. a sub and amp single 12" would just fit on the right hand floor board that way its all in one box. but if you get the right amp you can also run the 6x9's off it too as far as another battery in the boot, i'd use a power cap as its easyer to wire than a full battery and charging system. and for the 6x9's in the front you could mount a small amp behind the das to power the doors.
