cam_d Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 (edited) Hey guys, been a big fan of these wee beauts for quite a while, decided to go for it and so far so good. Only iphone pics at the moment, the only things i have done so far is change the headlight bulbs, just to do me through the summer, I thought i'd put the blue and yellow bulbs in, looks quite smart in person... The sidelights are the Osram T5 led's and are really really good, just want decent ones in the number plate festoons if anyone can suggest any? I bought speaker adaptors, and now the doorcards don't fit! livid.. again if anyone can recomend some that would be great... Wheels are pending, suspension too...

cam_d Posted June 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 I forgot to add, I had a remap today, has def made a difference, pulls really well and for longer. No need to down shift to overtake in fifth too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nellytheelephant Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 i had that trouble had to file a bit off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cam_d Posted June 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 as you can see in this pic, it's lined up with the clip at the back and the speaker doesnt line up with the doorcard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan94 Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 Those adaptors look completely different to the ones I've seen, looks like the 3 bolt Vauxhall fitment? I'd bin them tbh and get some more, they're too wide and the wrong fittings by the looks of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan94 Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 Did you have to drill new holes? Looking at the eBay ad, they've sent you the wrong ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cam_d Posted June 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 yeah i had to drill another hole, pretty annoyed about it as i just assumed that's what you had to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan94 Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 yeah i had to drill another hole, pretty annoyed about it as i just assumed that's what you had to do Sorry to tell you mate, but they're definitely the wrong speaker rings. The ones I had lined up with the old holes and were thinner, so they'd sit behind the door card. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan94 Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 If you're on coils, take the rear adjusters out, then you'll be low! Looking good though, should get some Lupo lights on the back, made all the difference on mine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
