Oh dear


NO

At the moment the stereo refurb will be as follows:

1) STOCK head unit.  This is absolutely 100% set in stone that this is staying, hence the ipod kit shown above because I don't want anything visible like tape adapters / wires etc, The docking solution is WIP... but will be SO cool.
2) 2x 6x4 and 2x 6x9 speakers in Stock locations behind everything thats meant to be there.
3) some sort of amp in the boot meerly because the power output on the stock stereo is probably rubbish.  Need to speak to Shifty / G-Unit to sort out what its capable of.
4)  Maybe, and thats a BIG maybe some subs, but it depends on a long string of events that culminates in me having a normal car & keeping the IROC as a 2nd summer car, if thats the case I can use some of the boot space.
It's the time that we kill that keeps us alive...

They are $25 to me as an OEM

2nd question... how does that work then?


That unit has 10 cones in 5 pairs that push against each other, it gives the equivelant bass output of a single 10" in about a 5ltr box unlike a 20ltr box that would be needed by a sinfgle 10"


They do 2 other versions that equal a pair of 10's and a pair of 12" but they are larger in size and more expensive

Brake cleaner would be fine on the glass or metal work but you'd need to be very careful on the paintwork

Panel wipe degreaser


Hmm ok, would Meths or white spirit do it? (I have those)

NO, Brake or carb cleaner should be ok if you only have that.

plenty of panel wipe at the barn

FUBAR

it doesn't take off paintwork does it?
