  1. i have wired this cam into the reverse light so that when you put the car into reverse it changes. i have also thought of putting a switch in and wiring so u can switch it on when not in reverse. perhaps a switch on the centre console or down by the washer jet/esp switches as there are blanks in both areas.
  2. I can't fit my bloody iPad in the cubby. Buys cool just plunging in and bobs ure uncle.
  3. Yes. U can remove it with no adverse effects. I have done it to mine with no probs.
  4. I had the same issue. Undo the mounting screws and just tilt it up. Worked for me. No messing with the fascia at all.
  5. Doh! Found the one i used. viewtopic.php?f=17&t=31260&p=458149&hilit=Bose+connections#p458149 Hope this helps
  6. sorry dude, but i cant find the bloody links to the pages i used. i printed them out and everything just cant find them. sorry bud
  7. Oh ok. I have only just done this. Put in a double din unit. But i really cant bloody remeber where the black phono goes. I think that basically the red and white are the left speakers and the yellow and black do the right. I think that u have it connected right in the last photo. Make sure u ground the parking park wire too. Also dependant of the loom you have, u have to chop off one of the plugs and actually solder wires together. This is for the steering wheel controls. I'll have a look for the guide i used.
  8. You appear to be missing the steering wheel control loom. I had loads of random wires on mine. It took me ages to work it all out.
  9. could be tempted. its lovely down there. it was the journey back from swanage when i saw my Zed. oh the memories!!!!
  10. Thank you so much - problem solved. Just to find a bloody sat nav disc now, there is no way im paying £120+ for a disc. glad to be of service
  11. yes, its is a stacking system. press the load button then the disk slot number. ie "load", then it flashes and then press a number. then push the disk in. otherwise there is a fault on your unit.
  12. +2 on the ground. i used a ring crimp then took one of the bolts of round the gear lever and made a perfect ground there. works spot on. also IIRC, without the parking brake grounded/not connected it means that u cant get into some of the menu options either. so u have to do it properly.
  13. The ghetto mod works very well IMO. Only way to stop the skipping is to take it apart and check the unit. Also stupid question about the voice dialing but have u got the BT module required to pair the phone to the car.
  14. i have fitted a reverse cam. its awesome!! great bit of kit really. 20 quid from ebay!! the longest bit was getting the wire from the front to the back and soldering the reverse signal. well worth it tho.
  15. that looks like a great price. it certainly looks like a GT to me:- cruise, heated leather seats, bose, brembros. the rays were an option on top of the GT pack. about 2k option as well. i would say if it looks straight and the history is good then snap it up. best colour too
  16. that seems like a cracking price!!! for a 57 plate with fairly low miles. happy days. i have seen a temper in the flesh and did notice about 4 different shades of the colour. its just a trait of that particular colour.
  17. i have falken 452's all round on mine. think they are spot on.
  18. i think they look great. and for the added protection too!!
  19. yup a few people got them, said they are good too.

    GASH!!
  21. The scorpion is great. With a y pipe it sounds sweet! Well happy with mine
  22. Apparently the profile is too low for the heavy zed. 35's are easier to get hold of as well. TBH i think the advice varies from place to place. So i just went for direct replacements.
  23. I would just make sure all of the work gets done to a high standard. Bit different i know but my clio was bodged by the garage. I had a mate look at it and he said the work was shocking. And to take it back. The sub frame had been reshaped and not replaced like they said they would do. Just filled and sprayed the front bumper. Really pi**ed me off as i had paid the exess of 500 quid.
  24. The tyres are direct replacement. Was gonna go 35 but was advised not to. I found the falkens to be very good on my ST. Liked them. Road noise is OK. Grip level is good. Much better than the bridgestone RE 040. Nice and cheap too at 135 quid each. Just need to get them fitted now.
