a11y's new car (no longer in Seat ownership...)

http://www.edaudio.com/store/product_info.php?cPath=21_29&products_id=56 - it's a 10" needing a 0.3-0.5 cubic foot capacity sealed enclosure. My enclosure is a fraction over that (0.5cF = 14,158cm3, mine is 14,500cm3 or there about)

Gimme a minute and I'll upload better pics of my plans...

Err, not sure TBH. I'm a complete novice with audio stuff. I just asked around a lot on www.talkaudio.co.uk and read up a fair bit. IIRC it depends on the size of the enclosure - it's really quite important to match the sub with the correct size of enclosure (manufactures should tell you that info).

Plans:

Yeah, hardest part was tucking the power wire under the plastic side sill - compared to my Clio it's so hard to take interior bits off (i.e. things don't fall apart..)

Only problem I encountered was my passenger seat folding mechanism breaking - every time I wan't more space in the passenger side to do the wiring I had to wind the reclining mechanism back and forward. First trip to the dealer for me I think...

Yep, that's a plan

Cheers for the comments. I'd love to try and make an enclosure in fibreglass and shape it around the side of the boot - would make a very neat and small enclosure keeping more of the boot useable...

It's only taken me 14 months, but I've finally got around to getting my wheels refurbed. The wheels were in a bit of a shocking state when I picked it up from it's previous owner and I can honestly say I'd not added any further damage. Well, just the once on a pothole

Ummmed and ahhhed for ages about going dark with the wheels but finally wimped out and went for brighter silver. I'm happy with the results...

Before:






And after...






Much better lol

Comments welcomed. I had little choice over the shade of silver - it was the only one the powdercoater had, but it was cheap, local and quick so I'm not complaining.

Although it was actually a few weeks ago I had the wheels done, the weather's been so pish I only got a chance to wash the car yesterday. Took a little drive today and the sun actually appeared so I fired off some photos.

Other than the wheel refurb I think the only change has been a reduced-size front plate (but it's still legal size and spacing - I just cut off the surrounding additional wheel to the bare legal minimum).

Fixed!
