GingerFlame Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Did you just buy the film + activator online then do it in the bath or something? I don't fancy paying to have my wing mirror repaired after the accident! They only want 25 to dip it again but I'd rather pay 50 and learn to do it myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabbo_21 Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 Your sport on, also need a good base colour and a good quality lacquer for after. All the other prep is like if your spraying a panel, but between the base coat and lacquer you dip. Sent from my iPad using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabbo_21 Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 Looking to replace the stock Speakers as 1 of the cones have split. Any recommendations for what to get. Sent from my iPad using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassen Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Front or rear Speakers? Depends on your budget as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassen Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Front are component and rear are coaxial if I remember correctly. Both use 16.5cm/6.5inch Speakers woofers. Pioneer make decent Speakers for the money and not too expensive as well. Guessing they are going to be powered by the head unit? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabbo_21 Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 It will be a full install. Phase 1 will be replace all six and power off of unit. Phase 2 will be amp them up I had considered another set of pioneers as used to use their 5x7 sets.

GingerFlame Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Have a look at mine, Hassen's or Lenny's build logs for ideas as we've all completed full installs! :) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassen Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Like Kieran said, plenty of links and ideas between the 3 of us threads. If you have the budget and doing it in phases like I did, consider something a bit more high end like Focal/JL Audio for the Speakers.From my personal experience with the Focal 165KR, they are worth the money and sound brilliant.I had Pioneers in the past and would recommended them too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabbo_21 Posted May 4, 2016 Author Share Posted May 4, 2016 Been a while since last update, but need busy working on audio. Installed 4 channel Pioneer GM-D8604 hidden under passenger seat with high level input from stereo so I can factory unit which meets all my current needs. With Pioneer TS-A173Ci in the front and Pioneer TS-A1733i in the rear. All fitted as direct replacements for factory Speakers. New audio cabling laid throughout including a new quad lock adapter taking audio straight to amp. Also installed ford boot tray. Sad to say having need parked in office car park, someone has managed to leave a nice crease in the n/s/r door so need to look at a repair/ replacement but nothing come up cheap locally.

Gabbo_21 Posted May 4, 2016 Author Share Posted May 4, 2016 Hoping in the next couple of weeks to give the rear of the focus a bit of a lift. Especially with Lenny's exhaust tailpipes and hoping and a ST rear bumper Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
