It started with a new stereo (oh dear god, what have I done)

There are a few cars with 6x9s in, there was one at Malvern with custom speaker boxes amp behind drivers side sub behind passenger seat. it looked really good.

Can't remember who's it was but they are on LEC.

enjoying this thread as it makes me wonder whats behind my dash, but i haven't got the bottle plus i wouldn't know what to do with all those wires.

MB Quart is decent gear.

I had a pair of MBs once on a recommendation. Maybe I had a dud pair but they sounded dull & lifeless. Easily the worst pair of aftermarket car speakers I have had the misfortune to listen to.

Could the turntable knob be the low temperature cut-out on the evaporator - Do you have a/c?

Ugh, this project has been on hold for the last two weeks as I'm just insanely busy. However, I did find a way yesterday to make EVEN MORE work for myself... Did €500 of damage rescuing a €25 boardroom chair out of the trash. NOT HAPPY.
Never assume that you can make it over the same kerb backwards as you can forwards.






The bump and small berm that did the dirty deed... I was backing up the hill onto the "road". Yes, I should have known better.




Seeing as I have NO experience with fiberglass/urethane/whatever, and I don't even know where to get the stuff over here (it's not sold at auto parts stores or any hardware store that I can find - seriously this is another huge rant of mine, the stores in this area NEVER EVER stock anything I might want, I would kill for a Princess Auto over here), it's going to a body shop. Now I have to find one who aren't hopelessly incompotent, rediculously expensive, or both.

To top it off I've got like a gazillion things to do at work, my boss is breathing down my neck to get on a plane to Indonesia ASAP, and my home telephone and internet got cut off for no reason. I'm totally stressed out and have been in a foul mood for like the last month. DIDN'T NEED THIS RIGHT NOW.

Just had to vent. Thanks for reading.

Thats rotten luck ... But keep your chin up ... everything will be fine in the end ...and its sometimes good to "vent off" now and again...

So that's what the rubber lip is for - it's a bloomin' early-warning device! Horrid luck. I hope you are able to repair the car easily.

Maybe because you can blame some other stupid for yours?
You've made quite a nice job with the spray can too.

That's what my front number plate is for, usually. Unfortunately it doesn't work when reversing.

My car was the one at Malvern with the custom made 6*9 pods behind the seats. Drop me a line if you need any details
