WOO HOO!!!! H5!! See, I KNEW if I mentioned the W7 you would appear Where about's in the country are you bud?

Where does it fit? Totally stealth where the standard one fits... ? Wouldn't be interested in parting with it would you?

Anyone have any going spare before I shout Al?

I am missing a few strut brace bolts.... Does any one have any standard ones spare? After replacing them with new shiney/Hex ones? There is a beer or two in it for you Cheers...

ooohhh... you make that yourself? I haven't taken any trim off yet. So I have no idea what kind of space there is with the standard sub. Presuming im not going to fit a W7 in there?

Thanks everyone! Lots to think about. I think I need to find out what the best 8" sub I can lay my hands on is .... Then start doing research into Head Units.... Cheers! (Oh, and also try to get hold of Rob/H5!)

SpursMadDave & yokomo ... you are spot on, no need for pics' as they are totally stealth! Any chance of some specs? and how hard it was to say replace the standard sub and get a decent sound from it? Shaun1982... nice install... but I wanted to use my boot as well So all I really want to do is upgrade what is there and get a decent sound.

Are chips away not REALLY pricey?

Im looking for advice on going for a stealth install on my ICE. I don't want to go OTT, just a decent sound. My HU is knackered... as is my sub and/or amp... So, has anyone fitted a totally stealth setup? No external mods. Sub in the same place, amp still hidden, HU not to ott, Bluetooth and steering wheel controls still working... Anyone?

YYYYEEESSSSHHHHH SHHHIIRRR! Will get round to the iPod hack ASAP. Im off down to Bath tonight 150 mile drive... would be nice if I could know if there is a "quick fix" for the bass.... Other than setting fire to it

What I REALLY want to do, is put in an iPod head unit, which will work with my sheering wheel controls and my bluetooth setup... And be able to have a decent sound. So I guess that i a new amp and new speakers as well. But I want it all to be STEALTH... look totally standard (Bar the HU, obviously) Has anyone done a decent STEALTH install?

Point taken...

Apart from the fact that my my head unit won't play CD's when the car is running.... My damn bass keeps cutting in and out when using the tape converter with my iPod! Is this a known issue? I know the front speakers cutting in/out is a know one... as is the skipping head unit (Basically, I need a NEW head unit!) but will that solve my bass issues too? Or will it be a sub or amp issue?

I think (and pretty sure most bods would agree) the 350 isn't ostentatious! Specially standard as mine is

Mike Patton is a GOD!

ALL these watches (bar possibly the B&R) are SO over the top, in your face and awfully ostentatious! How can you take any of them seriously? Bought myself a lovley Rado a few years ago. Subtle, plain, classic... lovely...

+1

I couldn't believe the premium I got from Admiral... I was paying £550 a year for a shitty beaten up SEAT Leon Diesel..... Tam was paying £100 less for her A3 diesel. So I was a little worried about quotes for the Zed (obviously looked before I bought) We NOW pay £700 a year for the Zed AND the A3! MUCHO recommend Admiral multicar!

What you have to do is think ... "Where SHOULD it be?" Rather than... "Where the hell would STOOOOPID windows hide it?" If in doubt click on the magnifying glass in the top right hand corner and type in iphoto. It will show up, you can either just click on it, or click "show all", then drag the icon into your dock... Problem people have is that windows does everything so complex and unorganised, when you get a Mac, you think it is going to be more complex. Where as it is always actually VERY VERY intuitive ... LOVE THE MAC!!!! I love all mine!

I have NO idea about this leccy stuff.... But wouldn't some kind of capacitor or something emulate the fade feature? Suppose it wouldn't be in sync with the other lights then If there is an issue with the dome light not being fused... cant you just stick a fuse in it? THEN splice off it? (And the answer is ... No, I DON'T know what I am talking about!)

Can you define... "European Christmas Market".... Kinda like the one in Brum?

BLOODY USELESS!!!! I managed to get the Engine light to flash... but DIDN'T read the extra "Hold Gas for 10 to reset" line... Light reset... all looking good!

Love my iPad... Used it for looking at the service manuals all day yesterday when I was doing my fluid changes... But, as Sparky says... where would it fit in the car? custom made housing unit in place of the headunit and cubby hole ? not seen one in the flesh so not sure on the exact size I would say they are too big to be honest. Plus the screen is SO shiny... If it caught the sun and got you in your eyes, you would be screwed

Nope... car wasn't started without the MAF connected. But it WAS started (a few times) only firing on 4 cylinders. When we put the coils back onto the sparks, two of them were not sitting right... so it mis-fired. We whipped the coils off again, re-seated them, and she now runs fine. Taken her out and she actually feels like she pulls BETTER now. Presume that is down to the new sparkies Alex sorted for me.... So how do I reset the error codes? Shouldn't the "dance" do that? (Lesson one, never put EVERYTHING back on... cover, strut brace etc BEFORE checking it fires up fine!)
