Default FAO alex zvh cab or sexy arse

hi guys, a couple of question for you about cabriolets as you both have a lot of experience with them, how much work is involved in putting a turbo engine into one and whats the easiest way to do it, i would probably go mfi as i already have a lot of the parts.

Also how did you get the speakers in the rear pods in sexys cab any pics and instuctions you could give me i would be very grateful for..

Thanks guys

All the speaker pods in my car where custom made mate

As for sticking a turbo lump in its easy Just need a loom and engine, we cut the loom down the side of the drivers door at different lengths then solder the turbo loom to it there

I found it just as easy taking out the full loom and replacing with a full one.
Suppose it's six & half a dozen , whatever is the easiest for you.
