im running mine from the headunit only..no amps.

and me being lazy sometimes,i just hooked into the rear quater panel and picked up a feed off the other speakers..then ran it too the 6x9's.

not ideal but it works fine for what im after.

mine are also on a steath shelf.
 
Cars Looking good lad! Love the little touches that make this car different from the rest, interior is mint. Looks clean and fresh all round.

Very nice overall!

Looks awesome already, gonna look even better with that bumper on.

Followed your guide by the way for fitting opening rear windows to my 1.2, just wanted to say cheers for helping :)

The black sunvisors and interior bits look good, I'd do it myself but I'm picky and would want a black headlining to match. :rolleyes:

cheers mate..
glad the sort of guide helped out
.
reason i never went for black headlining was it would be to dark in there..just wanted something to brighten it up

well alittle more done today.

befor the bumper goes off to paint i wanted to fit a splitter.
but i didnt want to go the same old lcr one..its been done to death..

so i opted for an oldie,thats been done to death..lol...good ol' laguna splitter.

now it wouldnt just fit staraight on so it had to have the corner sections modified where the cupra bumper steps down.

heres the end results..

once the bumpers painted i can refit and heat it to tweak the step up bits into a better shape.

but i quiet like it..and not seen one done on a cupra bumper
