Right o peeps, it is now 6.30pm on Sunday so we have managed a full day on it to get to where we are now. This is going to be quite some update!
Engine bay quick clean up..
Followed by complete overhaul of strut, under arch, discs, pads, TCA's and calipers etc...
Then we fitted a super thick anti roll bar and removed the spacers from the old one (Not sure why they were fitted?)
Then got a little pissed off that neighbours tree decided to shed its flowers into my freshly cleaned scuttle area!
Started on the rear
Then whilst bored for 5 mins this morning, my neighbour thought he would strip the interior out!
He carried on sorting the brakes etc, so I decided to install the front component speakers
Rockford fosgate jobbies
Then I remembered I am installing central locking so came to the conclusion that feeding through the wires along with the new speaker wire was a great idea. - 20mins later, I was in spaghetti hell!!!
Not a problem to most - But I am colour blind so this was my worst nightmare!
Crimped some nice terminals
Used some of this to add anti-vibration insulation to the door
Fitted the tweeters into surface mount angle pods
The crossovers
Original plan was to hide them behind kick panels but too big! - Plan B - Make them a feature!
By now it was HOT HOT HOT so I left next door painting drums and converted my home office desk into a work area
Mounted them and installed some wiring though little holes so can be hidden
Door speaker mounted
Desk re-instated as per Mrs orders
So there we have it - It's almost 7pm now and dinner time - will take photos of rear end etc shortly so you can see how much has been done.
