well after trax i sorted a sull sponsorship deal with vibe for a massive system! was dead chuffed! anyway after no being able to get in touch with them and generally being treated really badly i cancalled it cos i dont want there stuff in the car if they cant look after me!
anyway then got in touch with chris off here and i picked this up yesterday! was a 4hour drive each way but well worth it! got all the system and door builds, dont think i will use them the lamob hindges wont lift them there are they well made! and all cables and headunit also! wired it in to the green car for a day or so to check it works, DAM its loud, it hurts also! very good for just 2 12s! also the quality of the build is amazing, not fitting it properly yet but we got it all in the car in 10mins max! big thanx to andy also for coming to meet me at chris house, both top lads!
so started laying wiring out in the jag now and got headunit in the car now2! all sound proofed with roof insulation stuff cos i am not paying £15-20 for dinamat! just want new rims for the photo shoot which max p wanna do in few weeks time! car wont be proberly done really but still gonna get cover so wots point in spending more dollar now!
here are some pics, look as the staght of my shed:-S cant move in there!

I ask this everytime but I never get told... why is your boot welded shut?
Install looks good though - should fit well with the interior of the jag

it was stu who had the boot welded shut before i got me mits on the car but i think it was done for 2 resons:-
1) to make the back look really smooth
2) cos of the 206 rear lights stresgth was lost round that area and by welding it all up puts lot of strenght back in!
there u go coblet now u know - hehe

i do have the controller its handy.. i mouted it nicly below the ashtray . headunit is pure class apart from dodgy radio signals but that might b due to my ariel/location etc . mp3s and cd dont skip atall only if i go into a massive pot hole lol. subs hav never failed me, components are bit on the quiet side but its ok cos i got more of them in the back channel from headunit

it fitted to face the hatch on chris's car, it it going to face the hatch on your iaz? as if it is allot of the detail, like the SQ cut outs ect will be lost (wount be able to see it properly), will be a dam shame
looks good tho

was hoping u didnt have punch controlled so i could sell it to u! leaving that off and putting me phonex gold bass cube in cos that is very similar but can chance frequency of bass also so make it sound betta! well impressed with rf gear tho! always been a focal/jl person before this

basically speaking......its AMAZING, such a high quality, highly modified car, and its still tasteful imo, doesn't look like tat, nor too silly (which is surprising when u think of the mods) is a real CUSTOM car
love it, even if its not my scene at all
