Hello again. One last question (probably ) Is it worth getting something like dynamat (don't B&Q do some cheap alternative??) and lobbing that in the doors and trim while im at it?

Is it an easy job, as I've never attempted something like that before.

Thanks again!

Dynamat yes, B&Q no. The stuff in B&Q will be roof sealant and is definately the wrong stuff to use. Anyone that tells you otherwise really hasn't got a clue. The stuf doesn't do the job you're after and on top of that it smells and melts when the temps get hot in summer.

2awg is plenty unless your dealing with SERIOUS power

Another thing im tempted to do!

Damn this website.

Seems rude if im getting a HU installed not to get the speakers done aswell

 

[Number86]

Cool, thanks. I may get some of that too, just as long as my "current...amps..." are good....

What should I be looking for on ebay for the fake dynamat?

 

[UncleFester]

brownbread is ok and you can pick it up cheaply enough.

Doesn't take much current to see a voltage drop over cable hence the use of 0awg, to minimise it.

I ordered the 4ag...
Is 13 squid for a 100x60cm sheet of brown bread good?

 

[Number86]

Where do I order that? Or is it a service you offer to other club members?

 

[thebeno]

Haha, bottoms up!!

Ooops, burnt fingers, going to crawl back under my stone.

 

[Icecavern]

Sod your burnt fingers, I'll now have to explain to my boss how some plank posted a link like that on a car forum... :w4nk:

Maybe you should familiarise yourself with this page... http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/faq.php?faq=scn_faqrules_item

Erm I think he keeps food on the table and my mortgage paid. And I rather like my job, I don't need the hassle
