Re: ADZSKI's FTO, NATASHA
I'm envious of our neighbours as they've got a flat smooth one. Ours is right next to a tree and therefore probably the roots too. I've been looking at Dwayne's front bar so much but I think I'd have to park on the street, haha.

Update.
i bought some gpx calipers off dwayne (dstocks), not sure if they will need a reco or not
also going to buy some slotted rotors soon.
bought dwaynes front bumper should have it in a week or two. it just has to be made up first
also picked up a new stereo surround!

Re: ADZSKI's FTO, NATASHA
Update
ok few things will be happening in the coming week.
firstly still waiting on the front bar to arrive
lately for work (industrial refrigeration mechanic) i have had to spray a couple machines i had to rebuild and make them look pretty and did a rather good job (using proper equipment though) not a spray can if you were wondering
so i thought, as i have access to this equipment im going to spray the new bumper my self to save abit of $$$.
.just purchased fog lights for the new bumper. there the same as the one's Technikhaus used, also im putting 6000k hids in the foggies.
.havent decided on a pacific indicator yet
.also purchasing another set of hids (6000k) for the head lights.
. to the fun bit. in the next day or so im purchasing a samsung galaxy tab 2 gt-p3100, this will be mounted where the head unit is and the head unit will be relocated to the glove box as i want to still be able to access it and use it when need be.
the tricky bit- ive been browsing ebay looking for a head unit extension harness but not had much luck, later this week going to pop down and talk to my auto electrician and see what he suggests.

You can use any wire to extend the head units wiring, just cut and join.adzski wrote:the tricky bit- ive been browsing ebay looking for a head unit extension harness but not had much luck, later this week going to pop down and talk to my auto electrician and see what he suggests.

Re: ADZSKI's FTO, NATASHA
Just make sure you use a thick enough wire for the constant power and ground cables

Re: ADZSKI's FTO, NATASHA
nah I didn't get the HIDs, I heard they're not that good for fog lights.
But if I did want them, i'd wait until I've got my low beams first, so that I can color match them.

Re: ADZSKI's FTO, NATASHA
Update.
head unit has been relocated to the glove box, though its only temporary at this point ( still need the galaxy tab 2 and a few other things and glove box needs to be modded so the head unit will sit flush inside, but it works which is the main thing!
bought this to extend the antenna cable
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/321089678910 ... 1497.l2649
just need to solder back up my remote wire and extended the L and R audio cables then i can begin modding the glove box.
will get some pics for the wiring tonight.
