hi guys and gals, im having a nightmare trying to find a route for my main 12v power supply, obviously from the battery under the bonnet to the boot where the amp and sub will hopefully live just wondered if anyone knows the easiest/quickest way of doing this because i cant seem to find a way without stripping out the whole dashboard getting very frustrated any any advice would be most welcome many thanks

just checked both of mine and there the same, normal although i dont like the idea of oily air being sucked into the throttle body?????? could a crankcase breather filter/ catch tank be fitted????
-
hi i have heard about motorcycle airboxes being modded eg just a bigger hole cut out to increase the air flow and wondered if any one with a lup had done it????? rather than an induction kit???? would obviously use a hiflow panel filter eg pipercross etc..... any ideas????

Door problems with new Lupo.
8ballvmax replied to liquiiiid's topic in Car Care, Maintenance and Mechanical
as far as door locks and window switches go they seem to be a common fault, both my lupos have needed new window switches and lock repair kits lock kit is around 7 quid on fleabay, hardest part is actually fitting it (search for guide on you tube) but my mechanic took 30 seconds lol window switches are simple enough to fit. hope this helps in some way??? but very common and easy to fix faults same as bleeeding brakes, either individually or the whole system!!! -
cheers now than makes sense many thanks
-
lol fair enough guys thought by a miracle i could save thousands lol oh well back to the reality of a long wait
-
whislt doing my daily fleabay searches i have found an "electric supercharger" looks impressive but has anyone any experiences with one?????
-
lol i have one fitted to 1 of my lups and yeah i just want that induction roar
-
many thanks mate, still confused as **** lol think i will get me mechanic to sort it lol
