Wheels93 Posted November 22, 2015 Author Share Posted November 22, 2015 So after a good breakfast with JBeer this morning I decided that the car needed smartening up and prepping for the winter. Started off with a shampoo using Meguiars NXT Generation, moved onto a Meguiars clay Bar to get rid of any imperfections. Once happy with that, moved onto Meguiars Ultimate Polish and finished off with some Liquid Wax also Meguiars ;) I could become a Meguiars REP here!!!! Before anyone makes a comment, I know I never blacked my tyres because I never had time. Anyway, here's some piccies. Few weeks off cleaning now :) defo after Christmas I will look into colour coding my fog rings and also look into getting that k&n induction kit like lenny has gotSounds like a plan to me!! They will make a big difference but nice and subtle at the same time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yunii I am tempted to do that to be honest only for show purpose ;) Right Reversing Camera on order hehe from the rents. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 I do like the reversing camera. Might add it to the Xmas list ;) Grab handles clever too the connects2 camera is top quality Boot door strap is great function for me too because the kids can reach it to pull down the boot after putting in there school bags, Before fitting the strap they couldn't reach the boot to close it, Aside from that it adds a sporty touch to the boot, Extra WOW factor right there 😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the look of it and I understand what you mean in regards to the fitting of it. Mmm I need to see some videos of both I think 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mmm I need to see some videos of both I thinkyep it's the exact same part number as saw in my guide the CAM-FD1The pioneer cam is permanent live which can be used as a rear view camera when driving that's an advantage over Connects2 The connects2 camera is only live when reverse is active but i suppose could be wired to ignition live. I favour its integrated in to the boot handle and perfectly centre, can see bumper in video. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just like you said about the bracket and what not.I had considered mounting it inside the diffuser section of the bumper, Would be protected from stone chips by the diffuser beneath, Mount it inside the rectangular gap 😕 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
