my soundsystem (http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=117659) k guys heres the write up with dodgy photos. basically because i am i melbourne and all of the assorted screws and stuff are back in the old mans shed i have been waiting until i spend a weekend at home to secure the vs doorpod properly and the crossover. they have never been the same since i removed the doortrim to fix a jammed electric window so i just left the doorpod off for the meantime.

(also considering putting the 6in rears in the stock parcel shelf) - Mitch oh and as for following other members there are some good ones there but for the most part the members on here are useless when it comes to car audio. and i did follow their guides on the h/u and front stage install. before doorpod was removed - drivers side passeneger Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

ok, well i have entered nats and have one minor setback - mty car got vandalised. its pretty minor and it has polished out... (or started to anyway) so heres what is getting done for nats - redo the passenger door install full polish (and removal of graffiti on bonet) detail and clean the interior and engine bay, already got "sponsorship" from 2 guys, stylin in bentleigh and bentliegh aurobarn, (got stylin stickers plus hes oing to do me a good deal on my alarm setup and i got my wiring and speakers there) another to do is secure some kind of tyre shop sponsorship, (hopefully if i rock up with the car detailed and with autobarn and stylin on board i will be able to negotiate a deal where i can borrow a set of rims for the weekend,) can anybody say 19 / 20 " bboss elanors? or maybe some hps? senator sigs? hope 2 see everybody there, the car will be set up with a pinboard of pictures and a bit of a story with it aswell. aslso i am going to be lapping it up, woot going to be a great weekend. - mitch get your booties down to shepparton on the 23/4/5th of november people
