How my car looks now inside and out!

Hi guys,

Well I though it was time I posted some pics of my car now I've finished this months mods. I've added foglights, a new head unit (which doesnt work with my VW iPod adapter

), and a full amp and new speaker install

Opinions welcome

Cheers,

Perky

Here the front:

Here the amp:

Here the crossover, mounted on the side of the dash console:

Here the new Blaupunkt Acapulco MP54 HU:

thats a really smart place to put the ipod adaptor, mine's sitting in the glovy. What happened to keeping original ICE?

Well I thought I'd blown the old Gamma HU up, but turns out the amp was the source of the problem - by that time id already ordered my new HU, which is much better anyway. Just a shame the iPod adapter doesnt work as intended with it.

I never actually fitted the iPod adapter there - VW did so I can blame them for the stupid positioning

Cheers,

Perky

Ahh excellent. Its fun to fit

You'll love wiring through the doors. My advice is be patient and take it one step at a time!
